How It Works
Understanding the token mechanics, ecosystem alignment, and safety-first design philosophy.
Token Overview
Basic Information
- Token Name
- Graphene Token
- Symbol
- TBD
- Network
- Base
- Total Supply
- 1,000,000,000
- TGE Price
- $0.02
Safety Features
- ✓Fixed supply: No unlimited minting
- ✓Hard caps: Buy tax ≤3%, Sell tax ≤7%
- ✓LP lock design: Liquidity timelock mechanism
- ✓Time-delayed governance: No instant parameter changes
- ✓Claim-on-demand vesting: No forced claims
What the Token Engine Does
Transaction fees are automatically distributed to support four key ecosystem outcomes:
1. Liquidity Strengthening
Protocol-owned liquidity (POL) design ensures the ecosystem can maintain healthy trading conditions over time.
- • Automatic LP provision from fees
- • Reduced reliance on individual LPs
- • Long-term liquidity stability
2. Treasury Support
Ecosystem development treasury funds research collaboration, partnerships, and infrastructure.
- • Graphene R&D funding
- • Ecosystem partnerships
- • Education and awareness initiatives
3. Burn Mechanism
Deflationary burns reduce supply over time, designed to decrease gradually to avoid long-term instability.
- • Deflationary pressure on supply
- • Capped total burn (max 30%)
- • Decreasing burn rate over time
4. Rewards Pool
designed to incentivize long-term participation
- • Staking rewards
- • Lottery pool
- • Participation incentives
Ecosystem Alignment & Liquidity Support
Ecosystem participants may choose to contribute liquidity over time to support a healthy token economy. Contributions are discretionary and not guaranteed.
Who are ecosystem participants?
Graphene producers, research groups, and stakeholders who hold tokens and have aligned incentives for ecosystem health.
Why would they contribute?
As token holders, their success is tied to token stability and ecosystem growth. Healthy liquidity benefits everyone.
How is it transparent?
Any discretionary liquidity contributions will be documented on-chain: ecosystem actions will be documented on-chain
Important: Liquidity contributions are discretionary, not guaranteed, and should not be considered a promise of future support. The ecosystem design philosophy includes aligned incentives, but execution is always at the discretion of participants.
Vesting Design: Claim-on-Demand
Unlike many token launches that force daily claims, TBD uses a claim-on-demand vesting model. This means:
✓ No daily claims required
Your vested tokens accumulate automatically. Claim when you want, not when forced.
✓ Gas efficient
Save on transaction fees by claiming less frequently.
✓ User-friendly
No complex claiming schedules or missed rewards.

Security & Transparency
Built-in Safeguards
- ✓Fixed max supply design (no infinite minting)
- ✓Hard caps on buy and sell taxes
- ✓LP lock design via timelock mechanism
- ✓Timelocked governance actions for sensitive changes
- ✓Claim-on-demand vesting design
Contract Transparency
Even strong safeguards cannot eliminate market risk, contract risk, or regulatory risk.
