# Utility Tokens Explained

> What a utility token is, how it differs from other digital assets, and why GMRX is one.

A **utility token** is a type of digital token whose value comes from what you can *do* with it inside a particular project or platform.

## The "access pass" idea

The easiest way to think about a utility token is as a digital **access pass** or voucher. Holding it might let you:

<Note>
  The key idea: a utility token's value is tied to its **practical use** inside the project, not to ownership of the company or rights to profit.
