Request is an Ethereum-based decentralized payment system that facilitates the exchange of money without third parties. Transactions on the Request Network are immutably recorded, and users can pay and/or get paid in digital currencies of many other networks, according to the company’s website.
REQ is the utility token that powers the Request Network. It was launched in 2017 and is intended to ensure the performance and stability of the network. Miners are charged a fee when a payment is created, which is then stored on an Ethereum smart contract.
The fees, paid out in REQ, are burned periodically to lower the amount of REQ in existence. Theoretically, the controlled supply and network demand (via potential use cases) could justify the value of the token.
A total of 999,876,008.01 REQ are in circulation out of a maximum supply of 999,877,117 REQ.
On its Oct. 20, 2017, launch, REQ changed hands at $0.05684.
