Yield & rewards pool

Support ecosystem rewards

Allocated to yield-generating instruments whose earnings fund rewards for eligible participants who stake. Rewards depend on performance and the applicable staking terms.

50 cents of each dollar · Returns and rewards are not guaranteed

Sub-allocation percentages are subject to final confirmation by Crescite. Example amounts show purchase proceeds, not token-supply distribution or live wallet balances.

From allocation to accountability

A purpose for every allocation

Purchase proceeds are directed to named wallets for rewards, mission investment and the team. Published addresses and contracts allow the routing to be checked onchain.

Verified wallet addresses and live treasury balances are not yet available on this page. Read the BitGo collaboration announcement ↗

What transparent reporting means

Each allocation has a named wallet and a public onchain address. The reporting model connects allocation slices to wallet balances and transaction histories, so participants can follow movements over time. Return on Token™ publishes distributed protocol revenue divided by circulating supply; reporting follows ongoing activity.

Catholic USD™

A dollar that gives its yield away.

Catholic USD™ is a separate stablecoin product backed one-to-one by the U.S. dollar, with reserves held in U.S. Treasuries. All investment yield goes to the Catholic Global Mercy Trust, supporting poverty relief, hospitals, schools and global causes.

The Token Model

Built around long-term utility

Programmatic Scarcity

Supply is released in stepped distribution rounds. Each round closes at a higher price than the last. The schedule below is enforced by the protocol, not discretion.

30-Year Vault

The model buys tokens on the open market and locks them for thirty years, reducing circulating supply over time. Team allocations separately vest over multiple years.

Return on Token™

Distributed protocol revenue, measured against circulating supply: a transparent standard for what the ecosystem returns.

RoT = Distributed Protocol Revenue ÷ Circulating Token Supply

Public distribution ladder

Price advances as each tranche closes.

Why Catholic Token™

First. Trademarked. Built with institutions.

Catholic Token™ brings five years of work for dioceses, schools and hospitals into one connected ecosystem. Its identity rests on the project’s history, registered trademarks, institutional relationships and the people building it.

One connected ecosystem

Catholic Token™, Catholic USD™, Catholic Wallet™, Acutis Game™, Catholic Digital Treasury ETF™ and Kenya Token™ bring together finance, access and participation.

Built for institutions

Legal wrappers, custody and reporting are designed for dioceses, parishes, schools and hospitals. Inspired by Pope Leo XIV’s Dilexi Te, the work measures technology by its service to people.

Counsel and custody

Holland & Knight and Dunnington provide legal expertise; BitGo brings institutional custody infrastructure. Registered trademarks and a patent-pending token methodology distinguish the project.

A network of schools, hospitals, land and community institutions reaches nearly every country. Catholic Token™ builds shared digital infrastructure for that economy. Participation is open to people of any faith or none: the invitation is to use and support the technology connecting this network.

Real assets. Local ownership stays local.

Institutions choose whether to participate. Tokenization provides a way to represent and administer assets through legal structures, custody and reporting while ownership remains local. The process spans dioceses and parishes, schools and universities, healthcare, religious orders, land, housing, cultural assets and treasury products.
