Features and Operation of BARK
The BARK Token-2022 integrates a comprehensive framework for managing transfer fees, rewards, and ecosystem development. This framework enhances the token's utility and value while supporting various social and environmental initiatives.
Transfer Fees and Rewards
When users transfer $BARK between each other, a small percentage of the transferred amount is charged as a transfer fee. This fee ranges from 2.8% to 5%, influenced by:

Blockchain Processing Capacity: Current capacity and load of the blockchain.
Maintenance Costs: Expenses associated with maintaining the blockchain infrastructure.
Ecosystem Development Needs: Funds required for ongoing development and expansion of the BARK Protocol.
Harvesting & Buy Back
Harvesting
Harvesting involves collecting the funds accumulated from transfer fees, stored in the mint account, and utilized for various purposes within the BARK ecosystem.
Buy Back
Buy back refers to using collected fees to purchase BARK Tokens from the market. This mechanism aims to:
Stabilize Token Value: By reducing the token's supply, buy backs help stabilize its market value.
Support Ecosystem Health: Enhancing token stability benefits the entire BARK ecosystem.
