Tokenomics
Governance, Staking, Access, Rewards
The $ETH6900 token lies at the heart of the protocol’s economic system. It represents ownership, participation, and utility within the ETH6900 ecosystem. The token is designed to ensure that users, developers, and relayer operators all have aligned incentives, rewarding those who contribute to network health and efficiency.
Unlike speculative tokens with no intrinsic purpose, $ETH6900 functions as a core economic instrument that powers governance, staking, gas rebates, and ecosystem growth. Its design ensures the sustainability of the optimization network while preserving decentralization.
Primary Utilities
Utility | Description | Benefit to Holder |
|---|---|---|
Governance Power | Token holders can propose, discuss, and vote on changes to the ETH6900 protocol including relayer parameters, treasury allocations, and new chain integrations. | Community-driven decision making ensures decentralization and transparency. |
Staking & Node Security | Relayer operators and validators must stake $ETH6900 to participate, ensuring honest behavior and economic accountability. | Stakers earn a portion of transaction fees and gas savings as rewards. |
User Rewards | End users earn $ETH6900 as a cashback-style reward when using the optimization service. | Encourages adoption and loyalty across wallets and dApps. |
Access Tiering | Certain premium features like analytics dashboards, custom deadlines, or API rate boosts require minimal token holding or staking. | Utility-driven demand increases token velocity without speculation. |
Treasury Growth | A percentage of gas savings and network fees are allocated to the treasury in $ETH6900. | Enables long-term funding for development, audits, and community incentives. |
Governance Mechanics
ETH6900 operates under a DAO governance model. The DAO’s on-chain voting is powered by the $ETH6900 token, giving holders proportional influence over major protocol decisions.
Voting Areas Include:
Proposal of new relayer operators or regions.
Allocation of treasury grants and community incentives.
Network parameter updates such as minimum staking amounts or fee ratios.
Integration priorities for new Layer-2 chains or partners.
Governance operates on a proposal + voting + execution cycle managed by a governance contract and verified multi-sig DAO treasury.
Governance Flow (Conceptual):
Proposal creation by a token holder (requires minimum threshold).
Discussion and temperature check on the forum.
On-chain vote weighted by token holdings.
Execution of approved proposals through DAO smart contracts.
Staking Framework
Staking creates both security and utility within the network. Relayers, schedulers, and enterprise partners must stake $ETH6900 to gain access to the relay infrastructure, ensuring honest behavior through economic collateral.
Staking Roles:
Role | Requirement | Reward Mechanism |
|---|---|---|
Relayer Operator | Minimum stake of 50,000 $ETH6900 | Earns share of transaction broadcast fees |
Validator Node | Minimum stake of 10,000 $ETH6900 | Earns uptime and verification rewards |
Retail User (Optional) | Flexible staking | Earns tiered cashback on transaction gas savings |
Reward Distribution Formula:
Reward=(Staked/TotalStaked)×RewardPool×MultiplierReward = (Staked / Total_Staked) × Reward_Pool × Multiplier
Where Multiplier is adjusted by node uptime and accuracy metrics.
All staking contracts are non-custodial and auto-compounding, distributing rewards in both $ETH6900 and ETH.
User Incentive Layer
To encourage widespread adoption, every transaction optimized by ETH6900 contributes to a Reward Pool. A portion of these savings is distributed back to active users in $ETH6900 tokens.
Example:
A user saves $12 in gas during a transaction.
ETH6900 captures 10% of the savings as protocol revenue (1.2 USD).
The remaining 90% is realized by the user, who also receives a micro reward in $ETH6900 proportional to their activity level.
This turns every transaction into a participation event, building a direct link between usage and ownership.
Access & Utility Tiers
ETH6900 introduces lightweight access tiers that provide extra analytics and automation tools for engaged token holders.
Tier | Token Requirement | Features Unlocked |
|---|---|---|
Basic | 0 $ETH6900 | Default optimization service |
Pro | 1,000 $ETH6900 | Custom deadline windows, webhook alerts |
Elite | 10,000 $ETH6900 | Real-time savings analytics, bulk transaction management |
Operator | 50,000 $ETH6900 | Enterprise relay access, staking yields, governance privileges |
These tiers ensure the token’s value is anchored to real functionality rather than speculation.
Treasury & Sustainability
ETH6900 maintains a protocol treasury governed by the DAO. The treasury receives funds from:
A small fraction of transaction fees (0.1–0.3%).
A portion of unclaimed user rewards after expiry.
Staking slashes and inactivity penalties.
Partnerships and integration revenue.
Funds are used for:
Ongoing development and audits.
Liquidity and incentive programs.
Ecosystem grants for dApp integrations.
The $ETH6900 token is the economic vertebrae of the protocol. It connects users, developers, and infrastructure providers into one unified incentive loop. Through staking, governance, and real usage-based rewards, ETH6900 ensures that efficiency, security, and participation grow together.
