KICK is a deflationary token. This means that there is a built-in method to burn tokens in the KICK smart contract when transactions are made in the blockchain. Every time tokens are transferred in the blockchain, 1% of them are automatically burned. So those who hold KICK tokens increase their percentage with each transaction compared to the total volume of token emission, which is decreasing. The more transactions, the faster the emission decreases, and the faster the percentage increases of KICK holders who do not transfer tokens. Burning occurs both in blockchain transfers and buying/selling on decentralized exchanges like Uniswap. There is no burning when trading on centralized exchanges like KickEX.

Furthermore, the KICK smart contract also includes a redistribution method – also known as staking, or POS (Proof of Stake). This method, like burning, distributes, in the case of KICK, 1% of the tokens from each transaction to all KICK holders, in proportion to their holding percentage. This means that the share among KICK holders increases even more: both because of burning and because they receive additional tokens as a result of the distribution.

So for every transaction on the Binance Smart Chain network, 2% of KICK is charged – 1% is burned, and 1% is distributed to the rest of the token holders.

The KICK token is also used in the KickWin project, a lottery that functions in the Binance Smart Chain network. It's a completely non-commercial project: anyone who has KICK tokens can participate and get a chance to win the jackpot. The winners of the lottery are determined at random based on the conditions built into the smart contract. The lottery jackpot is also distributed according to a deflationary model: 20% of the tokens are burned, 40% are redistributed to the next round, and the last 40% goes to the winner.
