# Tokenomics

Subunit’s tokenomics are designed to align incentives across the platform, ensure sustainable funding for operations, and distribute value to participants in an equitable way. This section will break the 3 major prongs and how the tokenomics function with each. 

**Tokenomics are divided into three major prongs:**

* $SUB tokens govern the overall platform
* $UNIT tokens govern individual properties
* $STS tokens govern the decisions of the subvault 

**Each token governs a separate DAO:**

* $SUB tokens govern the **Subunit Protocol DAO**
* $UNIT tokens govern the their **Property Specific DAO** (e.g. x street, California DAO)
* $STS tokens govern the **Subvault DAO**<br>
