#### Redemption

Redemption is a process to burn your vOT holdings and get back your share of OT treasury. 20% of treasury is reserved for protocol development, 80% of treasury is available for redemption by vOT holders which requires the holder to burn vOT in return for his share of treasury. Redemption comes with a fee. Redemption will start after IFO investors are fully reimbursed. Reimbursement will happen after OT accumulated a sizable treasury of bluechip assets such as ETH, USDC, etc.

> *The amount of asset you can redeem = vOT/(OT circulating supply + vOT circulating supply - burnt vOT amount) \* (1-feeRate) \* Treasury*
>
> feeRate = max(0.5%, *vOT/(OT circulating supply + vOT circulating supply - OT\_locked\_in\_vOT\_conversion\_contract - burnt vOT amount))*
