On average, tokens cost 40% to 50% of the coins they replace. Here's some simple math to determine how long it can take to recoup the cost of tokens. 

Cost of tokens  - $0.45 each

Quantity Ordered - 10,000

10,000 x $0.45 = $4,500

Total cost of the tokens - $4,500

Average Loss per Week - 2%-5%.

Value of the Tokens - $1.00

200 tokens x $0.45 + $90.00

$200.00 - $90.00 = $110 profit
