Supply: unlimited

Gencoin operates on an unlimited supply model, ensuring that thereโ€™s always enough currency to reward the acts of generosity within the community. This approach supports the platform's scalability and the continuous growth of its user base.

Value

Crucially, 1 Gencoin has an in-platform value of 1 USD (via our USDC Redemption Treasury), providing a stable and transparent value reference for all participants. This pegging ensures that contributions and rewards within Generos have a clear, tangible value, making the act of giving and receiving within the platform both rewarding and impactful.

Deflationary Mechanisms

To maintain its value and encourage active participation, Gencoin incorporates deflationary mechanisms, including:

  • Seed Redemption: Users can redeem Seed, a key asset within Generos, to convert Gencoin into another form of value. This mechanism helps control the Gencoin supply, ensuring its stability and utility.

  • Coin Burn: A weekly event reduces the Gencoin supply by a default percentage, counteracting inflationary pressures from the unlimited supply. This burn rate can be mitigated through earning badges, promoting engagement, and rewarding contribution.

Earning Mechanism

Gencoin is earned through:

  • Vault Cycling: Users fill their vaults with gems, and upon cycling (completing a vault with gems), Gencoin is generated. This process is central to the economic engagement within Generos, rewarding users for their contributions and participation.

Utility

Gencoin's utility within the Generos ecosystem is multifaceted, underpinning its role far beyond simple currency transactions:

  • Org and Circle Funding Goal Contribution: Gencoin enables users to directly support various causes and projects within Generos, translating digital actions into tangible societal impact.

  • Economic Reward via Seed Redemption: The Seed Redemption process is a pivotal utility of Gencoin, offering users a path to realize the economic value of their generosity. By redeeming Seed, users can convert their accumulated Gencoin into other forms of value, underscoring Gencoin's role as not just a digital currency but as a tangible reward for acts of generosity within the Generos community.

The Role of Gencoin in Generos

Gencoin (GGC) is more than just a digital currency; itโ€™s a representation of value created through generosity and community action. Its unlimited supply, balanced by thoughtful deflationary mechanisms, ensures a dynamic and sustainable economy. Through vault cycling and contributions to organizations, Gencoin facilitates a rewarding system where acts of kindness are quantified, rewarded, and transformed into a force for good.
