In moments like these its important to understand how the BANKR model should actually work
The
$surplus incident is a clear example of what should not happen imo
While I like the product and the idea, the token as unfortunately no placement and is a vehicle of transfer
I have stated many times before that the model has phases and it all should be planned in advance because going on a whim after adopting, leads to catastrophic endings to investors as it was with Openhuman
That said, traders on base have no issue investing into a token with no clear utility path simply cz the narrative it hot atm
At the same time, they brush off tokens with forward looking utilities and cashflow accrual to holders simply because they hold no spot in a current narrative
While I do sympathize with their losses, they decided to follow big accounts buying in knowing that something like this can happen at any moment
As a reminder, the BANKR model should be a two-part execution - Token, through ETH, funds the startup then the startup should generate flow to feed the token holders back and thus bringing more volume in
This is what the "value-wheel" brought by Blocktronics is all about
We are working to enter cashflow territory and we're almost there
On top of this, I am working on growing the treasury through a yield structure from outside investments (mode details soon)
Conclusion: Its time for base investors to take a step back and reflect on their investment thesis
Value extracting through all tokens isn't a EV long-term
Trade some but hold value
Its time to actually evolve in order for the good projects on base to truly flourish
Introducing the "Value-wheel"
Every cent made by the protocol will be distributed back as per the following
> BANKR fees will feed the liquidity, either via existing pools, new pools that will introduced or CEX listings
> 70% of Protocol feels that will introduced during phase 2 via our premium plan will flow to BLOCKTRONICS Stakers in the form of USDC
> 100% of the revenue made from our AERO LP scan will flow to BLOCKTRONICS Stakers in the form of USDC
> 80% of every dollar of yield made via our treasury will be given back to BLOCKTRONICS Stakers in the form of USDC
> 80% of every dollar of liquidity emissions or fees surplus will be given back to BLOCKTRONICS Stakers in the form of USDC
Any future revenue venue that will be introduced will majorly flow back to Stakers
As most projects don't align tokens with protocol and end up with a token that has no placement other than speculation, Blocktronics is aligning pre-product
