‍

5. Why is there no MAYA/CACAO pool?

MAYA is a revenue-sharing token that doesn’t rely on a liquidity pool. Instead, its value is tied to CACAO revenue and the overall activity in the ecosystem. Its worth depends on real ecosystem growth. 

For now, you can buy MAYA through www.mayaswap.org, but new options are coming! 

‍

6. Can I receive CACAO as free rewards for holding MAYA? 

Yes! Those who hold MAYA tokens are rewarded with CACAO every 24 hours to the wallet that holds the MAYA token. 

For every $9 earned by LPs/nodes, MAYA holders, including founders/devs, earn $1, incentivizing long-term growth and value accrual. 

‍

7. Where can I stake or delegate my tokens?

At Maya Protocol, you can participate as a Liquidity Provider (LP) to earn rewards and strengthen the network. Learn how to stake or provide liquidity in our guide: Liquidity Providers Guide.

‍

8. Why isn’t Maya Protocol listed on centralized exchanges?

Maya Protocol stays true to its decentralized values. With 43% liquidity and a market cap that nearly matches it, $CACAO doesn’t need the hype of centralized exchanges (CEXs).

Here’s why:

• You can already buy CACAO easily using blue-chip coins via our supporting UIs.
• Our focus is on real liquidity, wallet integrations, and meaningful exposure, not unnecessary CEX buzz.

We’re building for the long haul. That’s where the magic happens!

9.  What is the process for taking code from development to mainnet on Maya?

In Maya Protocol undergoes extensive testing to safeguard the protocol and its users. These are the tests we rely on:

• Lint Test: Keeps the code clean, efficient, and error-free—saving time during reviews.
• Secret Test: Protects private keys and sensitive data from exposure in logs or error messages.
• Unit Test: Validates every component, from fee calculations to liquidity operations, to ensure accuracy and functionality.
• Regression Test: Ensures new updates enhance rather than disrupt, keeping critical financial operations stable.
• Smoke Test: Checks the foundation—trading, deposits, and withdrawals—before moving deeper.
• Sync Test: Guarantees blockchain consistency, preventing chain splits or state errors.
• Stage Test: Simulates production-like environments to verify real-world performance and deployment readiness.

We take testing seriously, ensuring your trust and funds are always safe.

‍
10. Why does the protocol halt some chains occasionally?

Halting the network is a last-resort measure to ensure the security of user funds and the protocol itself. If nodes detect any irregularities or risks, the network halts operations temporarily to prevent losses. Security will always come first, and halting is our way of protecting the community.

‍

11. Why are there churn pauses? 

Churning is a routine process where inactive nodes are replaced with active ones to maintain a healthy network. However, if the conditions are deemed unsafe for a churn, the process is paused to ensure network stability and user fund security.
