Token Burn Mechanics

PTF Token Burn Mechanics

The token burn mechanism at PowerTrade is designed to create a deflationary environment for the PTF token, systematically reducing the total supply of PTF over time.

Various platform activities contribute to token burns, helping to regulate the circulating supply of PTF and maintaining a balanced ecosystem.

Token Burn Mechanisms

The token burn mechanisms at PowerTrade are rooted in three core activities: Buy-Backs, Trader Tools usage, and supplemental Token Burns. These activities collectively work towards reducing the PTF circulating supply.

  1. Buy-Backs:

    • PowerTrade will conduct buy-backs of PTF tokens using designated resources. During this process, PTF tokens are purchased from the market, and a corresponding amount is publicly and transparently burned to reduce the total circulating supply.

  2. Trader Tools Usage:

    • Within the platform, certain trader tools and features require the expenditure of PTF tokens. A portion of these expended tokens are subsequently burned. The specifics of how many tokens are burned per use of these trader tools can be found in the PowerTrade whitepaper.

  3. Additional Token Burns:

    • Additional token burn events may be conducted as stipulated in the PowerTrade whitepaper. These events are designed to further control the circulating supply and potentially enhance the token’s value. They may include, but are not limited to, burning tokens collected from platform fees or other operational activities.
