Ecosystem
$MM Token
The heartbeat of the memento ecosystem. A governance token with deflationary mechanics aligned with platform success.
Overview
$MM is the native token of the memento protocol. Unlike many DeFi tokens that rely on inflationary emissions, $MM is designed to become more scarce as the platform grows. Every fee collected contributes to reducing the token supply.
Governance
Vote on new vault strategies, fee adjustments, and protocol upgrades.
Deflationary
Supply reduces with every transaction as fees fund buyback and burn.
Tokenomics
$MM is designed for long-term value accrual through sustainable mechanics:
Fee Distribution
Buyback & Burn
Protocol fees are used to buy $MM from the open market and permanently remove tokens from circulation.
Treasury
Funds operations, development, marketing, and ecosystem growth initiatives.
Fee Sources
Multiple revenue streams contribute to the $MM buyback and burn mechanism:
| Source | Fee | Contribution |
|---|---|---|
| Vault Deposits | 1.5% | 50% to buyback/burn |
| Vault Withdrawals | 1.5% | 50% to buyback/burn |
| Aggregator Access | $5 USDC/24h | 50% to buyback/burn |
| Alpha Reports | $50 USDC/report | 50% to buyback/burn |
Aligned Incentives
Governance
$MM holders can participate in protocol governance by voting on key decisions:
New Vault Strategies
Vote on which new yield strategies should be added to the platform.
Fee Adjustments
Propose and vote on changes to the fee structure.
Treasury Allocation
Decide how treasury funds should be deployed for growth.
Protocol Upgrades
Vote on technical improvements and new features.
Why Deflationary?
Many DeFi tokens suffer from constant sell pressure due to inflationary emissions used for liquidity mining. $MM takes a different approach:
No Inflationary Emissions
Unlike yield farming tokens, $MM does not rely on printing new tokens to incentivize liquidity. This eliminates constant sell pressure.
Real Revenue
Buybacks are funded by actual protocol revenue, not token inflation. This creates sustainable value accrual.
Permanent Burns
Burned tokens are sent to a dead address and can never re-enter circulation. The supply only decreases over time.
