JOLT and fees

JOLT is native asset 0 with 18 decimals. The EVM value balance and native ledger refer to the same cash record. There is no required wrapping or second native balance.

The configured JOLT ERC-20 adapter also uses 18 decimals. Do not add its token balance to the native balance or apply a decimal conversion between them. Porting from other EVM chains covers payments, allowances and WETH router changes.

Cash, claims and reservations​

A lending supply position is a claim on pool cash, not cash you can spend twice. Orders may reserve balance, and funded obligations move their principal into a service position. Redemptions must produce actual cash before it can settle a payment or trade.

The configured native-ledger token adapter exposes ERC-20 behavior without duplicating native cash. The privileged adapter precompile at 0x1002 is called by admitted token implementations; it is not a universal token address. Token addresses come from genesis or asset registration.

Gas and sponsorship​

EVM gas meters execution. The local development fee profile has zero base fee and returns fee suggestions from recent committed transactions, falling back to 1 gwei when no samples exist. Launch gas/fee calibration is separate work.

Native JZTX sponsorship binds one exact outer transaction. A sponsor pays JOLT gas without gaining authority over the user's value or calls. Account-plan approvals do not independently authorize a debit for a relayer's fees. Stablecoin conversion is not implied by this profile.

Transfer events​

Native JOLT movement emits system transfer logs, including internal contract transfers. Configured ERC-20 calls can additionally emit token-identity logs for the same movement. Indexers must choose their accounting stream and avoid counting both as separate deposits. Fees do not emit Transfer logs; failed execution has no transfer logs.

The node's funded vesting and farm services do not establish a final supply, allocation or yield. Tokenomics and vesting explains the presale supply model. No JOLT allocation is final.
