Bless Network tokenomics: dual token, 90% revenue buyback and burn
Quote221 words
Bless uses a two-token system: TIME is a temporary compute reward converted into BLESS. 90% of fiat compute revenue buys and burns BLESS, 10% goes to treasury, with a fixed 10B supply.
Key claims
90% of compute revenue used for buyback and burn, 10% to treasury
BLESS fixed supply of 10 billion
100M TIME issued per epoch and burned on conversion
ICYMI: @theblessnetwork published its tokenomics.
The shared global computer will be owned by the people.
TL;DR ↓
➤ Two-Token System: The network uses two tokens. Users earn $TIME as a temporary reward for contributing compute power. This $TIME is then converted into $BLESS, the core token representing ownership and long-term value.
➤ Buy-Back-and-Burn: The primary value accrual mechanism is funded by fiat payments for compute. The protocol uses 90% of this revenue to buy $BLESS from the market and permanently burn it, continuously reducing the token supply. The remaining 10% goes to the treasury.
➤ Staking Utility: $BLESS holders can stake their tokens to earn more BLESS, increase the amount of compute work their node can receive, and provide a security bond that can be slashed for malicious activity.
➤ Supply Mechanics: $BLESS has a fixed, finite total supply of 10 billion. TIME has an ephemeral supply, with 100 million issued per epoch and burned upon conversion to $BLESS.
➤ Governance: The $BLESS token will eventually be used for protocol governance (voting on parameters, rewards, etc.), but this function will be activated gradually after the mainnet launch to ensure stability.
Personally like the tokenomics quite a bit, especially with the quite high (90% of fee revenue) baked-in buyback-and-burn mechanism, and the innovative dual token system.
