## Did you know that PIVX did NOT have an ICO and has a fully operational self-funding decentralized treasury system? ![dyk-graphics-self-funded-1.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmRB84hHqkriWFkA8yvQDQv5rtDJ7oCGpu2ZR8FVG3LJfd/dyk-graphics-self-funded-1.jpg) Unlike the majority of projects in the crypto space where millions of coins are pre-mined and offered for sale to help fund the (future) project, PIVX was built/developed 100% from self-funding. PIVX was not an ICO project. How does it work? *Up to 10% of the block rewards over a 30 day period are available to fund projects and proposals (5 PIV per block). This works out to a maximum allotment of 21.6k PIV that become available to be used and distributed through our proposal and voting system done in a decentralized manner through masternodes.* Only the PIV allocated to proposals that are submitted and voted on that pass the voting process are created and distributed. The remaining balance does NOT roll over to the next period and those coins are not even created. ### Want to know more about PIVX? Join our Discord!
