cBSN & SHB Conversion to BSN Conclusion
Introduction
The BSN token is a DAO governance token. There is no market value or price for BSN tokens because the DAO is in a network Bootstrap phase. All market, liquidity provisions, or network utilities will be communicated and discussed via the DAO feedback channel. The current DAO feedback channel is http://gov.blockswap.network/. BSN is used for governance and network integration to acquire value-aligned DAO members and protocols with the goal to create a self-sustaining ecosystem for web3’s mainstream adoption. The DAO is striving to achieve meaningful decentralization while onboarding core users.

The Future of BSN
Blockswap DAO is a Protocol Network DAO. Without protocols and those who use them, there would be no need for the BSN token. The current objective of the DAO in regard to the BSN token is to find meaningful decentralization by empowering users with its protocols. Distributing tokens to those with assets in Blockswap protocols cultivates an aligned community of actors with their own interests. In this way, those who use the protocols gain a more significant influence of the DAO.
