Off-Chain and On-Chain Tokens

With regard to EMPL, we will divide the tokens of our service into two types with the highest usability in mind: “off-chain,” circulated within the service, and “on-chain,” circulated outside of the service.

Ordinarily EMPL will be circulated through exchanges as on-chain tokens, while off-chain tokens will be able to be used within our service while complying with Japanese law. Furthermore, off-chain tokens will be able to be converted into on-chain tokens of equal value in order to be used in services outside of the app.

A comparison of the two token types follows below:
