What is HoloToken?
HoloToken, or HOT, is the native token of Holo, a peer-to-peer platform for hosting decentralised applications, or dApps. Rather than sit on a conventional blockchain, Holo runs on Holochain, an agent-centric framework that lets applications operate without the global consensus and mining that older networks depend on.
The idea is a distributed hosting network. People can host dApps on their own devices and receive HOT in return for the computing power and storage they contribute. HOT is the unit of exchange inside that system, settling payments between the people who use an application and the hosts who keep it running.
Because Holochain does not require mining, it is designed to be far more energy-efficient than proof-of-work chains, and to scale as more hosts join the network. On Digital Surge you can buy HoloToken in AUD, with the live HOT price in Australian dollars shown before you confirm.

FAQ
Buying HoloToken: FAQs
Can I buy a small amount of HOT?
Yes. A HoloToken order on Digital Surge can be a fraction of a token, so your first buy can stay small. Most people enter a dollar figure in AUD and let the platform work out the HOT, rather than dealing in whole tokens themselves.
How long does it take to buy HOT?
Usually just a few minutes. The one-off tasks are verifying your identity and funding the account, and a PayID deposit clears in under a minute for most people. After that a HOT order confirms in moments and settles at the live AUD price.
Can I sell or cash out HOT?
Yes. You can sell HoloToken back to Australian dollars whenever you like, or swap it for another coin in a single step inside the Digital Surge app. The AUD from a sale lands in your balance, ready to withdraw to your linked bank account.
How does HOT work with the Holo network?
HOT settles payments between the people who use decentralised applications and the hosts who run them. When you access a dApp on Holo, HOT pays the host supplying the computing power and storage that keeps that application online and available to others.
What makes HoloToken different from other tokens?
HoloToken runs on Holochain rather than a traditional blockchain, so it does not rely on global consensus or mining. This agent-centric design is built for greater scalability and lower energy use while keeping the network decentralised. Hosts can also receive HOT for contributing spare computing resources.
How do I check the live HOT price?
The live HOT price sits in the tracker at the top of this page, quoted in AUD and refreshed as the market moves. The converter just beneath it prices any amount both ways, in AUD or HOT, on the same rate you meet at checkout.
