"The Digital Engine of Apple Island – Accra"
1. Executive Summary
The Apple Island Token (AIT) is the native digital asset that powers governance, infrastructure, land ownership, and ecosystem services across Apple Island – Accra, a 12–24 km² reclaimed smart island in Ghana. Built on blockchain infrastructure, AIT enables tokenized real estate, decentralized governance via DAO, and seamless integration of Web3 technologies into a physical sovereign micro-city.
AIT is not just a token — it's a new model for tokenized territory.
2. Vision
Apple Island will be:
The first blockchain-governed island in Africa
A real-world asset (RWA) economy, powered by tokenized land and services
A DAO-governed smart community with green infrastructure, e-residency, and global capital access
3. Token Overview
Parameter | Value |
Name | Apple Island Token |
Symbol | AIT |
Type | ERC-20 (Polygon or Ethereum L2) |
Total Supply | 1,000,000,000 AIT |
Decimals | 18 |
Launch Year | 2025 (Planned Q4) |
4. Use Cases
��️ Governance
DAO voting (zoning changes, budget, grants)
Elect council members
Approve infrastructure upgrades
�� Land Ownership
Pay for NFT land parcels and deed registration
Smart contract escrow for land sales
�� Utility Token
Pay for:
Island taxes (via smart contracts)
Electricity, water, waste (tokenized metering)
DAO-based permits or licenses
��️ Staking & Rewards
Stake to propose/vote
Earn DAO treasury shares or usage credits
�� Digital Citizenship

5. Tokenomics
Category | % of Supply | Unlock Schedule |
Land Sale & NFT Drops | 30% | Linear (2025–2029) |
Strategic Investors | 25% | 12-month cliff, 36-month vesting |
Founders & Advisors | 20% | 18-month cliff, 48-month vesting |
DAO Treasury | 15% | Controlled by DAO via multisig |
Ecosystem Incentives | 10% | Grants, staking rewards, airdrops |
6. Infrastructure Stack
- Chain: Ethereum L2 or Polygon (low gas, DePIN friendly)
- Deed Registry: NFT smart contracts (ERC-721A or ERC-3525 for fractional ownership)
- Governance: Snapshot + Aragon (Phase 1), DAO tooling in Phase 2
- Oracles: Chainlink (utility pricing, zoning metadata)
- Storage: IPFS / Arweave (deed metadata, DAO docs)
- Identity: zkID / Soulbound tokens for verified residents
7. Regulatory & Legal
AIT is a utility token, not a security
DAO incorporated in a Web3-friendly jurisdiction (e.g. Cayman, Liechtenstein)
NFT deeds linked to legal title via SPV land-holding structure
8. Roadmap
Phase | Milestone | Date |
Phase 1 | Whitepaper, token model, legal wrapper | Q3 2025 |
Phase 2 | Token launch, NFT land mint, DAO testnet | Q4 2025 |
Phase 3 | DAO launch, staking, e-residency pilot | 2026 |
Phase 4 | Infrastructure tokenization (utilities, bonds) | 2027 |
Phase 5 | Full DePIN and RWA integration | 2028+ |
9. Risks & Mitigations
Risk | Mitigation |
Regulatory uncertainty | DAO wrapper, legal SPV, KYC-compliant interfaces |
Token volatility | Reserve pool + stablecoin utility pair |
Infrastructure failure | Hybrid on/off-chain redundancy |
Governance manipulation | Staking-based proposal thresholds and SBT voting rights |
10. Conclusion
The Apple Island Token (AIT) is more than a digital asset — it’s the financial operating system of a next-generation smart island. By anchoring governance, land rights, services, and identity to a decentralized token economy, AIT offers a model for future sovereign communities.
We invite early Web3 investors, builders, and visionary partners to help shape this pioneering fusion of land, law, and ledgers.
