What is Hourglass ($WAIT?)
Hourglass ($WAIT) is a decentralized, community-driven, tax-free token with renounced ownership that was stealth launched August 19th 2022.
What does it mean that ownership is renounced?
By renouncing ownership, the developer of Hourglass ($WAIT) made this token truly community owned. It disables “onlyowner” functions entirely at the code level.
Many prefer renounced ownership tokens as they take away the risk of abuse of centralized power by the developer.
