What type of token is AS, and what role does it play in the protocol?

AS is the core utility token of the AKAS protocol, with three attributes: value carrier, governance instrument, and incentive medium. It is not a traditional "payment token" but an anchor for on-chain structural consensus and liquidity collaboration. Users obtain AS through Swap, bonds, and staking actions to participate in core functions such as staking for compound returns, title advancement, structural incentives, proposal governance, and revenue sharing.
