Value Accrual

This document explains the mechanisms through which the $NODR token is designed to accrue value over time.

1. Fixed Supply

With a fixed supply of 100,000,000 NODR (immutable, with no minting function ever) and no operational inflation, the supply of $NODR cannot be diluted over time.

2. Protocol Revenue

A fixed 15% of protocol revenue funds open-market $NODR buybacks via the NodrBuybackFlywheel, which burns a configurable portion of the repurchased tokens and routes the remainder to stakers. The burned portion reduces the circulating supply over time; it does not change the immutable 100,000,000 NODR cap, which can never be increased.

3. Staking

As more users stake their $NODR tokens to earn rewards and participate in governance, the circulating supply of $NODR available on the market is reduced. All forward-looking statements about token value are aspirational and not a guarantee of future price or returns.

4. Ecosystem Growth

As the Noderr ecosystem grows and more applications are built on top of the protocol, demand for the $NODR token may increase. This is a forward-looking goal, not a guarantee; actual demand and token value will depend on adoption, market conditions, and other factors outside the protocol's control.

This document provides a high-level overview of the value accrual mechanisms. For more details, please refer to the Noderr White Paper.
