What if we could design a tokenomics model that aligns the interests of the project team, investors, and the community while avoiding market flooding? Here's a wild idea to spark discussion:
๐ก The Tokenomics Blueprint ๐ก
- Initial Unlock:
- 10% of tokens are unlocked at launch.
- Funds go to the team for product development, marketing, salaries, etc.
- Future Unlocks:
- Each unlock must meet ALL of the following conditions:
1. โณ Time Lock: At least 6 months after the previous unlock.
2. ๐ Price Condition: The token price must sustain 2x the previous unlock price for 30+ days before the unlock.
3. ๐ Size Cap: Maximum of 5% of tokens can be unlocked each time.
๐ฏ Example Scenario ๐ฏ
- TGE (Token Generation Event):
- January: Token price = $1.
- 10% of tokens unlocked.
- First Unlock Attempt (June):
- Token price < $2? No unlock.
- Second Unlock Attempt (August):
- Token price > $2 from July 4 to August 3? Unlock 5% of tokens.
- New unlock price = $3.
- Next Unlock Attempt (March Next Year):
- Token price must sustain > $6 for 30+ days.
โจ Key Features โจ
- ๐ซ No Market Flooding: Tokens are only unlocked when the price is strong.
- ๐ช Team Incentives: The team is motivated to build long-term value to unlock more tokens.
- ๐ Smart Contract Control: Unlocks are governed by a smart contract with third-party oversight.
- ๐ Team Discretion: The team can delay or reduce unlocks but cannot increase the size or shorten the time frame.
๐ Why This Works ๐
- ๐ Price Stability: Prevents dumping during low-price periods.
- ๐๏ธ Long-Term Focus: Encourages sustainable growth over quick cash grabs.
- ๐ค Community Trust: Transparent and fair unlock conditions build confidence.
๐ฌ Letโs Discuss! ๐ฌ
This is just a thought experiment, but itโs fun to imagine how such a model could reshape tokenomics. What do you think? Would this work in practice? Letโs brainstorm! ๐ง ๐ฅ
