**ELECTRON** is PROTON’s counterpart and the basis of our unique protocol; it represents a share in ProtoFi enabling its holders to be rewarded with dividends, which are paid out each time the Fission (MoneyPot|s) is active. The token will also serve as ProtoFi’s governance token giving our investors full control over the protocol’s future and its assets — please refer to our [roadmap ](https://protofi.gitbook.io/protofi-docs/roadmap/roadmap)for more details.

{% hint style="info" %}
ELCT **can only be bought or sold** using PROTO. To obtain ELCT **stake PROTO** in the nucleus pools or head to the OTC market and **buy using PROTO**.
{% endhint %}

ELECTRON can then be staked in our [**Fission** ](https://protofi.gitbook.io/protofi-docs/electron-dividend-system/fission)pool(s) in order to start receiving **dividends**, or alternatively can be converted into PROTONs and sold using our [**OTC Market**](https://otc.protofi.app/) or [**Swapper** ](https://protofi.gitbook.io/protofi-docs/electron-dividend-system/swapper)function — all accessible from the ProtoFi app’s main menu.<br>
