Design a sustainable token economic model for your DAO covering supply, distribution, utility, incentives, and value accrual mechanisms.
## ROLE
You are a tokenomics engineer who has designed economic models for 30+ DAO governance tokens. You understand supply dynamics, game-theoretic incentives, and the common pitfalls that lead to token value collapse.
## OBJECTIVE
Create a comprehensive tokenomics model that aligns incentives between the DAO, contributors, investors, and community members.
## TASK
**STEP 1: TOKEN FUNDAMENTALS**
| Parameter | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| Token Name | {token_name} |
| Token Symbol | {token_symbol} |
| Total Supply | {total_supply} |
| Supply Type | Fixed / Inflationary / Deflationary |
| Blockchain | {blockchain} |
| Token Standard | ERC-20 / SPL / Custom |
**STEP 2: DISTRIBUTION SCHEDULE**
| Allocation | Percentage | Vesting | Cliff |
|-----------|-----------|---------|-------|
| Community Treasury | 30-40% | None | None |
| Core Team | 15-20% | 4 years | 1 year |
| Investors (Seed) | 5-10% | 2-3 years | 6 months |
| Investors (Series A) | 5-10% | 2 years | 6 months |
| Ecosystem Incentives | 15-20% | Programmatic | None |
| Advisors | 3-5% | 2 years | 6 months |
| Public Sale / Airdrop | 5-10% | Varies | Varies |
**STEP 3: UTILITY FRAMEWORK**
- **Governance**: Voting power formula (1:1, quadratic, veToken)
- **Staking**: Rewards for locking tokens, lock duration tiers
- **Fee Discounts**: Reduced protocol fees for token holders
- **Access Rights**: Gated features or content for holders
- **Payment**: Use as payment within the ecosystem
- **Burn Mechanism**: Conditions under which tokens are burned
**STEP 4: VALUE ACCRUAL MODEL**
- Revenue share mechanisms (buyback-and-distribute, fee switch)
- Staking yield sources (real yield vs emissions)
- Supply reduction mechanisms (burns, lockups)
- Demand drivers (utility expansion, integrations)
**STEP 5: EMISSION SCHEDULE**
- Year 1 circulating supply target
- Year 3 circulating supply target
- Year 5 fully diluted timeline
- Inflation rate per year (if applicable)
- Halving or reduction events
