PANews reported on January 30th that YO Protocol announced the launch of its native governance token, YO, and released its token economics model. The total supply of YO is 1 billion tokens, allocated as follows: 30% for community growth and future rewards, 24% for core contributors, 21.5% for ecosystem development and strategic partnerships, 16.5% for early investors, and 8% for the genesis airdrop. The token airdrop will open on February 5th, and eligible users can claim their tokens by connecting to their Base network wallet.

The YO token will be launched in phases: In the initial phase, the token will be non-transferable to encourage active participation in governance and promote long-term consistency with real users; during this phase, transfer functionality is expected to be enabled through governance voting when feasible. Holding YO will grant voting rights on key protocol decisions, including future plans, vault usage, and vault parameter adjustments. For early users and the community, the YO Protocol launched the YO Rewards Program on January 29th for two weeks. Users can earn YO rewards by depositing yoUSD, yoETH, yoEUR, yoBTC, or yoGOLD into vaults or participating in supported DeFi activities. During the initial phase, the reward rate for all vaults is set at 14%.

Previously, in December 2025, it was reported that YO Labs, the development team behind YO Protocol, completed a $10 million Series A funding round, led by Foundation Capital.
