Revenue Diversion Models
Revenue diversion models determine how protocol earnings are distributed between treasury accumulation, token burning, and community distributions. This logic is a key driver of token value accrual.
By choosing to reinvest revenue into the treasury, a protocol builds a stronger foundation for long-term growth. Conversely, distributing revenue to token holders can increase demand and incentivize participation.
The model must be carefully calibrated to balance these competing interests. It is a fundamental part of the economic design that influences long-term sustainability and stakeholder alignment.
