This page explains the transparent economics and governance of the first community-owned taxi platform. By engaging with Mining.Taxi, you agree to our Privacy Policy and Legal Disclaimer.
The traditional taxi and ride-hailing industry (Web2) generates hundreds of billions annually, with value extracted by a few centralized companies. Mining.Taxi flips this model using Web3 principles: the platform is owned and governed by its users, drivers, and investors — the community.
Our ecosystem is powered by two complementary tokens, each with a clear purpose:
1. $RIDE Token (The Reward Token):
• Earned by riders for every completed trip (1 $RIDE per ride).
• Backed by real liquidity (5% of each fare).
• Fully liquid — easily swappable for BTC, BNB, or other crypto.
• Withdrawal requirement: Need 1 MINING token in wallet + minimum 10 RIDE to withdraw.
2. MINING Token (The Governance & Yield Token):
• Grants voting rights (Governance) on platform decisions.
• Entitles holders to a share of the BNB Mining Pool revenue.
• Required for $RIDE token withdrawals (minimum 1 token).
• Represents true ownership stake in the ecosystem's growth.
We operate with a clear, growth-oriented commission model designed for sustainability:

The remaining 32% supports sustainable platform operations and growth.

Important Disclaimer: Cryptocurrency and token ownership carry significant risk. The value of MINING and $RIDE tokens can be volatile. Mining.Taxi does not guarantee profits. Participation is at your own risk. MINING tokens confer governance rights but do not represent equity in Mining Taxi Inc.
Simply stake your MINING tokens in the BNB Mining Pool. Rewards are distributed proportionally based on:
Your staked amount relative to total staked MINING
Platform revenue (4.76% of each fare at full launch)
BNB price performance
No minimum staking amount required. Visit the Mining page for details.
This requirement creates a sustainable economic cycle:
Demand driver: Every new rider creates demand for MINING
Community alignment: Riders become co-owners, not just users
Value capture: Community benefits from platform growth
Withdrawal security: Ensures proper wallet setup and ownership
Riders earn $RIDE regardless, but need 1 MINING to access their rewards externally.
$RIDE Token (Utility):
Earned by riders (1 per trip)
Backed by 5% of every fare
Used for rewards and future discounts
Fully liquid, swappable for other crypto
MINING Token (Governance & Yield):
Represents platform ownership
Provides voting rights (10,000+ MINING)
Earns BNB rewards from mining pool
Required for $RIDE withdrawals
Access to partner programs

70% of 68% → BNB Mining Pool (rewards for MINING stakers)
30% of 68% → MINING Liquidity Pool (ensures token liquidity)
Example for $10 ride (15% commission):
Total commission: $1.50
$RIDE Pool: $0.50 (5%)
Community share: $0.68 (68% of remaining $1.00)
BNB Mining: $0.476 (to stakers)
MINING LP: $0.204 (liquidity)
Platform: $0.32 (operations)
