What is a Hybrid Coin/Token?
A hybrid token(or coin) usually refers to a digital asset that combines features of more than one token type, for example:
Utility + Security → provides access to a platform/service but may also represent investment rights or profit-sharing.
Payment + Governance → works both as a medium of exchange and a voting token for decision-making.
Dual-use across chains → can act as a bridge between ecosystems, or carry multiple functionalities that go beyond a single narrow role.
Which one is the classic hybrid project from super gems? ETH, SOL, XRP(not really), BNB etc.
