Tribe (TRIBE) is the governance token for the FEI algorithmic stablecoin. It strives to provide a decentralized solution to the stablecoin market, addressing the limitations of existing stablecoins. Tribe is governed by a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO), meaning its operations are controlled by its community through smart contracts. The Tribe DAO oversees the FEI stablecoin, which was launched by a team of Bay Area residents in March 2021. Tribe may be utilized in governance proposals or exchanged for FEI in a liquidity pool.

Tribe operates as the governance token for the FEI stablecoin. FEI introduces the concept of Protocol Controlled Value (PCV), where the Tribe DAO issues FEI at a subsidized rate for Ether at its launch to generate a pool of Ether as its treasury. Tribe then supplies a part of this Ether with freshly minted FEI in an Ether-FEI liquidity pool to enable trading of the stablecoin. Stability is maintained through an incentive system. If the price of FEI exceeds the peg, arbitrageurs can sell Ether to the Tribe DAO and sell their FEI on the open market to generate a profit. If the price is below the peg, Tribe installed incentives come into play. Tribe may utilize its Ether reserves to retrieve FEI and burn excess FEI to reduce supply as a last resort.

Tribe seeks to address the limitations of existing stablecoins by providing a decentralized solution. It aims to eliminate the capital inefficiency of crypto-collateralized stablecoins and the instability of other algorithmic stablecoins. Tribe's potential applications may include participation in governance proposals, where holders can vote on various aspects of the FEI protocol. It may also be exchanged for FEI in a liquidity pool, providing liquidity for the FEI stablecoin. Furthermore, Tribe's underlying technology, the FEI stablecoin, can be used as a medium of exchange in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space.

Tribe was launched in March 2021 by a team of Bay Area residents, including Joey Santoro, Brianna Montgomery, and Sebastian Delgado. Santoro, the CEO of Fei Labs, was a software engineer at Okta Inc with a degree in computer science from Duke University. Montgomery, the project’s business lead, worked at ConsenSys, a blockchain studio, prior to being involved with Fei Labs. Delgado served more than two years at Dharma Labs, a DeFi project and graduated from UC Berkeley. Fei Labs, the organization behind Tribe, is supported by several VC funds. The total supply of TRIBE is 1 billion, with a current circulating supply of 415 million.
