What happens when a provider is penalized for failing to deliver proof on time? It directly affects the token $ZKC , and the network instantly becomes stronger and more scarce.
The penalty for failure in a borderless market is designed to be strict. When the guarantee is deducted, 50% of $ZKC is permanently burned.
- Burning the token immediately reduces the total circulating supply.
- The remaining 50% becomes a reward to incentivize a new provider to complete the work.
- This economic system provides a stronger and verifiable guarantee of proof delivery.
This ensures that the network is always working towards maximum efficiency and vitality.
The system reinforces itself: bad actors are punished, and the token benefits. A true decentralized market in action.
