the tokens are both the reward for supporting the blockchain network and they are also the payment needed to use the features that will be available in the upcoming release of DIONS. Downloading wallet and running it at as staking node ( set secure password and mark the checkbox for staking) will earn tokens. Tokens are currently worth around $2. Current rate of return is 1% ...like earning interest) Once DIONS releases rewards will also include fees for using its blockchain features so anticipation is rate of return on staking will increase dramatically :-)
