# Green Ben (EBEN)

Green Ben (EBEN) is the utility and governance token of BenSwap on smartBCH. Users need EBEN to use some of the products on BenSwap. Holders can share the appreciation and be able to vote and make decisions for the project. Our expectation is that the token price will benefit from the decreases in emission rate and implementation of deflationary mechanisms and other utilities.
