The 30.000 YFI would be distibuted only to uses who provided liquidity on Yearn. With no pre-mine, no pre-sale, and no allocation to the team, YFI set a standard for the most decentralized token launch (Fair Launch).<ref>https://medium.com/iearn/yfi-df84573db81</ref> | In July 2020 the YFI token was introduced as a way for Andre to decentralize control of Yearn by distributing 30.000 YFI tokens.

As the governance token of Yearn, the YFI tokens allow holders to vote on various decisions proposed by community members. Starting with Yearn improvement proposal 36 ([https://yips.yearn.finance/YIPS/yip-36 YIP-36]) a portion of staking rewards were used to cover operational expenses and reward token holders. [https://snapshot.org/#/yearn/proposal/Qmb6gBzjvgLMazSrQQGVcjutLNdkVyM2Lh6yckMzdoaHWZ YIP-56] disbanded the staking system in favour for a buyback system. | As the governance token of Yearn, the YFI tokens allow holders to vote on various decisions proposed by community members.
