# Longterm Interest Cycle (LIC)

Longterm Interest Cycle (LIC)

In order to maintain sustainability and future growth, we have introduced a Longterm Interest Cycle (LIC) component which will award $AMANO token holders with continued compound interest in perpetuity.

Each Interest Cycle is 15 minutes in length and is referred to as an **EPOCH**.

There are 35,040 EPOCH's in 1 year.
