| RA | Rare Asset. A fixed supply of 10,000, nothing more can ever be minted. | The anchor of Saturn Lending, and the token you pledge to lenders. See the RA guide. |
| TAZ | Transplanetary Artificial Zenith, 9 decimals. | The loan token in Lending, the reward paid on completed loans, and the fee for an Aetherpost dispatch. |
RAA (Rare Astro Asset) is a different token from RA. Check the symbol before you trade.
Decimals, briefly
Each token has its own precision. KCAL has 10 decimal places, RA and TAZ have 9, SOUL has 8. Saturn Ops shows amounts in each token's own precision, and where the chain reports a figure on a common 8-decimal scale (pool reserves, claimable fees) the page says so.
