What is the Genius (GENIUS) token?

Genius (GENIUS) powers Genius Terminal, a non-custodial onchain trading terminal built by Shuttle Labs that gives professional traders CEX-style execution across decentralized markets. The terminal aggregates over 150 DEXs on more than 10 blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain, into one interface. Spot execution is signatureless and chain-invisible. Perpetuals trading runs through Hyperliquid, and the Ghost Order feature executes large trades through multi-party computation. GENIUS serves as the ecosystem backbone, with planned governance, premium-feature access, and incentive-distribution utility.

How does Genius Terminal work?

Genius Terminal routes spot orders across aggregated DEX liquidity from a single interface, with execution designed to feel like a centralized exchange. Trading fees scale with cumulative volume in tiers, ranging from a net 0.30% down to 0.05%. The Ghost Order feature uses multi-party computation to split large trades across temporary wallet clusters without revealing funding sources. Target users are professional traders, HFT actors, whales, DeFi power users, and institutions. A dashboard yield product called usdGG is also part of the terminal.

Which chain hosts the GENIUS token?

GENIUS is a BEP-20 token on BNB Smart Chain, not a native coin of its own blockchain. The contract address is 0x1f12b85aac097e43aa1555b2881e98a51090e9a6, verifiable on BscScan. DropsTab classifies GENIUS under DEX, with additional categories including Analytics, Perpetual, and BNB Chain Ecosystem.

What is GENIUS's tokenomics and maximum supply?

Per DropsTab data, the maximum supply of GENIUS is capped at 1,000,000,000 tokens. Total supply sits below that cap. DropsTab records no full allocation breakdown across team, investor, and community buckets, so the complete emission profile cannot be assessed from DropsTab data. The largest documented single allocation is 70,000,000 GENIUS distributed through the Season 1 airdrop via the Genius Foundation.

How does the GENIUS token unlock schedule affect investors?

The largest scheduled supply event is a 70,000,000 GENIUS unlock that the Genius Foundation postponed to February 2028 in a September 2026 announcement that also adjusted the points-reward rules. The unlock equals roughly 7% of total supply and about 20% of circulating supply, so its rescheduled timing shapes future sell pressure on the market. Project documentation references further token unlocks for team and investor allocations. DropsTab lists no dated unlock calendar for GENIUS, so upcoming supply events cannot be read from DropsTab data.

Who backed Genius Terminal?

DropsTab fundraising data shows a $6M Seed Round on October 23, 2024, led by CMCC Global, with Avalanche Foundation, Flow Traders, Arca, and angels including Balaji Srinivasan, Anthony Scaramucci, and Scott Melker. YZi Labs, previously Binance Labs, joined a Funding Round on January 13, 2026. Third-party coverage puts total raised above $17M.

What does Genius Terminal's fundraising signal about project maturity?

The backer list combines exchange-tier capital with market-making expertise. YZi Labs' check was reported by The Block at over $10M, with CZ advising Genius Terminal. The Binance Wallet Sale on April 13, 2026 ran through Binance Alpha ahead of the token generation event. Flow Traders' participation in the Seed Round aligns with the terminal's institutional and HFT user focus.

How did the GENIUS Season 1 airdrop work?

Season 1 distributed GENIUS through point farming with a fixed supply of 200M Genius Points. Weekly retroactive drops of 10M GP started January 19, 2026, allocated pro-rata on weighted effective spot-trading volume, with whale-smoothing and anti-bot rules. Referral points were permanently reclaimed under the anti-abuse rules. Accumulated points converted to GENIUS at TGE through the 70M-token airdrop. A 7-day claim window applied a 70% burn penalty to early claims, while a 1-year smart-contract lockup returned 100% of the allocation.

Is there a Season 2 of Genius Points?

Yes. Season 2 launched on April 10, 2026 on a continuous model: a 50,000 GP daily pool distributed pro-rata, with weekly drops. Project documentation also reserves 17M GP for discretionary team allocation and states no end date for the program. Season 1 closed on April 12, 2026.

Which exchanges list GENIUS?

Per DropsTab data, GENIUS trades on major centralized venues including Binance, Kraken, KuCoin, Bitget, Gate, MEXC, HTX, and LBank. Binance listed GENIUS spot on May 22, 2026 with a Seed Tag, which flags residual volatility. Quotation skews heavily to USDT, while Kraken's USD and EUR pairs provide fiat on- and off-ramps. Derivatives venues including Binance Futures, Bybit, KuCoin Futures, MEXC Futures, and Gate.io Futures list GENIUSUSDT perpetuals. Onchain liquidity sits on a PancakeSwap v2 GENIUS/BNB pool on BNB Smart Chain, so centralized venues dominate the market structure.
