Transparent supply • Security-first controls • Evidence-first documentation

EthicalToken (ETHX) — a governance-first ERC-20 on Ethereum.

Built to prioritize transparency, risk disclosure, and practical security controls. Designed for serious stakeholders: developers, auditors, exchanges, and long-term holders.

Fixed max supply (1B) Emergency pause Role-based controls Ethereum mainnet

Protocol Architecture

Security-minded ERC-20 design with explicit controls and transparent assumptions.

Solidity ^0.8.20 • OpenZeppelin v5.x

Replace with a simple SVG/PNG diagram once your docs are final (high trust + SEO).

ERC-20 Core

Transfers, balances, allowances.

Supply Constraints

Fixed max supply target (1,000,000,000 ETHX) — no inflation.

Safety Controls

Pausable controls + role/owner boundaries.

Deterministic supply

Clear supply behavior designed to avoid ambiguous emissions.

  • No rebasing mechanics
  • No hidden inflation (verify code + on-chain)
  • Documented distribution assumptions
Operational safety

Controls designed for incident containment and transparent recovery.

  • Emergency pause architecture
  • Role boundaries (pauser vs owner)
  • Public incident disclosure posture
Evidence-first documentation

Primary-source links (Etherscan, docs, audits) — not marketing claims.

  • On-chain references
  • Tech overview / changelog
  • Audit reports (when available)

Governance & Control Framework

Designed to make administrative capabilities explicit and reviewable.

Multisig-aligned • role separation
Treasury custody (recommended)

Use a Safe multisig for treasury operations to reduce single-key risk.

  • Threshold approvals
  • Signer separation
  • On-chain transparency
Role boundaries

Admin power should be limited, documented, and easy to audit.

  • Owner/administrator boundaries
  • Pauser (guardian) role for incident response
  • Role renounce supported
Emergency controls

A pause mechanism is a circuit breaker—meant to slow damage, not hide issues.

  • Pause to contain incidents
  • Clear unpause policy
  • Post-incident disclosures
Phase 1Multisig-governed operations

Transparent treasury + admin actions with published procedures.

Phase 2Snapshot-style signaling

Off-chain signaling to gather consensus without custody risk.

Phase 3On-chain governance expansion

Progressively decentralize only after security review and readiness.

Tokenomics

Simple, explicit tokenomics are easier to audit and easier to trust.

Fixed supply • disclose allocations
Supply model

Target: fixed max supply with transparent issuance assumptions.

  • Max supply: 1,000,000,000 ETHX
  • Decimals: 18
  • No inflation / no rebasing (intended)
Distribution transparency

Publish a distribution table and link to verifiable wallets/transactions.

  • Treasury / ecosystem allocation (if any)
  • Liquidity disclosures (if applicable)
  • Clear vesting schedule (if used)
Tokenomics documents

Add a one-page summary + full tokenomics PDF. Put update dates on every doc.

Security & Audit Readiness

Security is a process: controls, tests, audits, and transparent postures.

Access control • pause • tests
Design foundations

Prefer well-known components with version pinning (e.g., OpenZeppelin v5.x).

  • Solidity ^0.8.20 overflow checks
  • Explicit permissions + modifiers
  • Emergency pause architecture
Testing discipline

Publish testing approach and coverage goals.

  • Unit tests for critical paths
  • Fuzz tests / invariants (recommended)
  • Reproducible deployment scripts
Audit artifacts

Link audits and remediation notes. If not audited yet, state it clearly.

  • Audit status + dates
  • Findings + fixes
  • Monitoring / incident response plan

Risk & Transparency Disclosure

Plain-language disclosures help stakeholders make informed decisions.

No guarantees • disclose risks

EthicalToken (ETHX) is presented for documentation and transparency. Participation involves risk. Nothing on this website is financial advice or a promise of value.

  • Smart contract risk: bugs or exploits may occur even after review.
  • Market risk: crypto assets are volatile and may lose value.
  • Governance risk: governance mechanisms can be attacked or fail socially.
  • Operational risk: admin procedures and key management can be compromised.
  • Regulatory risk: requirements vary by jurisdiction and may change.
