Comprehensive overview of the $MECHA token economy
7,000,000 $MECHA
$0.05 USD
$350,000 USD (Initial)
The $MECHA token is the native utility token of the MechaMesh ecosystem, designed to facilitate transactions, incentivize participation, and govern the platform. As a Solana-based SPL token, $MECHA benefits from high throughput, low transaction costs, and energy efficiency.
$MECHA serves as the primary medium of exchange within the MechaMesh ecosystem, enabling seamless interactions between robot owners, AI developers, hardware manufacturers, and users requiring robotic services.
$MECHA is used for all transactions in the task marketplace, including task creation, bidding, and payment for robotic services.
Token holders can stake $MECHA to earn passive income, secure the network, and gain access to premium features.
$MECHA is used to contribute to insurance pools that protect robot owners and service users from potential losses.
AI developers and compute providers earn $MECHA for contributing to the decentralized swarm intelligence network.
$MECHA is required for registering robots on the platform and obtaining verification credentials.
Token holders can participate in platform governance by voting on proposals with their staked $MECHA tokens.
Allocation | Tokens | Cliff | Vesting Period |
---|---|---|---|
Liquidity Provision | 5,040,000 | None | Immediate |
Community Rewards | 1,050,000 | None | 48 months |
Team & Advisors | 700,000 | 12 months | 36 months |
Marketing | 210,000 | 3 months | 24 months |
0.5% of all marketplace transaction fees are burned, permanently reducing the token supply.
10% of robot registration fees are burned, creating deflationary pressure as the network grows.
Quarterly buyback and burn events using 15% of platform revenue to reduce circulating supply.
30% of platform fees are distributed to stakers, creating passive income for token holders.
Growing ecosystem creates increasing demand for $MECHA tokens for various platform activities.
Governance rights become more valuable as the platform grows, increasing token demand.
Activity | Fee | Distribution |
---|---|---|
Marketplace Transactions | 2.5% | 30% to stakers, 55% to treasury, 15% to insurance, 0.5% burned |
Robot Registration | 100 $MECHA | 50% to treasury, 40% to verification pool, 10% burned |
Swarm AI Computation | Variable | 80% to compute providers, 15% to treasury, 5% to stakers |
Insurance Claims | 5% | 95% to claimant, 5% to verification validators |
The $MECHA token follows a deflationary emission schedule, with the highest emission rate in the first year to bootstrap the ecosystem, followed by a gradual decrease in emission rate over the subsequent years.
Tier | Requirement | Benefits |
---|---|---|
Bronze | 100 $MECHA | Basic fee sharing, voting rights |
Silver | 500 $MECHA | Enhanced fee sharing, priority marketplace access |
Gold | 2,000 $MECHA | Premium fee sharing, reduced marketplace fees |
Platinum | 10,000 $MECHA | Maximum fee sharing, zero marketplace fees, governance weight multiplier |
Stakers earn a proportional share of 30% of all platform transaction fees.
A portion of newly minted tokens are distributed to stakers, with higher rewards for longer lock periods.
Stakers can participate in robot verification and earn additional rewards.
Active participation in governance votes earns additional token rewards.
The MechaMesh DAO governs the platform through a decentralized voting system where $MECHA stakers can propose and vote on changes to the protocol. This ensures that the platform evolves according to the collective wisdom of its community.
Governance decisions include parameter adjustments, feature prioritization, treasury allocations, and protocol upgrades. The governance system is designed to be inclusive while preventing plutocracy through quadratic voting mechanisms.
Community members discuss ideas in the forum and gather feedback.
Proposal is formalized and submitted on-chain (requires 1,000 $MECHA to submit).
7-day voting period where stakers can cast their votes.
If approved, the proposal is executed through the governance contract.
Technical team implements the approved changes.
Based on the square root of staked tokens (quadratic voting) to prevent plutocracy.
For, Against, or Abstain options for each proposal.
Minimum 10% of staked tokens must participate for a valid vote.
66% majority required for standard proposals, 75% for critical changes.
Stakers can delegate their voting power to trusted community members.
Parameter | Current Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Proposal Threshold | 1,000 $MECHA | Minimum tokens required to submit a proposal |
Voting Period | 7 days | Duration of the voting window |
Quorum | 10% | Minimum participation required |
Standard Threshold | 66% | Approval threshold for standard proposals |
Critical Threshold | 75% | Approval threshold for critical changes |
Timelock | 48 hours | Delay between approval and execution |
Future development will include cross-chain bridges to enable $MECHA to operate across multiple blockchain ecosystems, expanding its utility and accessibility.
Development of tokenized insurance derivatives that allow for risk trading and more efficient capital allocation within the insurance pools.
Creation of synthetic assets that represent fractional ownership of robots, enabling broader participation in the robot economy.
This document is subject to updates and revisions as the MechaMesh ecosystem evolves.
