Economic Model & Incentive Structure

Economic Sustainability

The sustainability of Aurica’s economic model hinges on a balance between token supply and demand, the utility of the $AURI token, and the strategic management of the Treasury:

• Token Supply Management: A fixed supply of $AURI tokens ensures scarcity and helps prevent inflation. The token bonding process also manages the supply by locking tokens for a vesting period.

• Treasury Asset Accumulation: The Treasury accumulates RWAs through the bonding process, providing a stable foundation of value for the ecosystem.

• Investment in Green Projects: A portion of the Treasury funds is allocated to green projects, ensuring a cycle of reinvestment that promotes growth and sustainability.

Reward Mechanisms

Aurica’s economic model is designed to incentivize participation and investment within the ecosystem through a variety of reward mechanisms:

• Staking Rewards: Users who stake Green Project NFTs receive fractionalized carbon credits as rewards, creating a tangible link between their investment and environmental impact.

• Governance Incentives: Holders of veAURI are incentivized to participate in governance through voting power and a bonus multiplier system for carbon credit earnings, which increases with the amount of $AURI staked.

• Raffles and Contests: Regularly held raffles for carbon credits and other rewards provide a fun and engaging way for users to increase their holdings and participate in the ecosystem.

Risk Management and Mitigation

Aurica takes a proactive approach to risk management, implementing measures to mitigate potential financial and operational risks:

• Diversified Asset Portfolio: The Treasury maintains a diversified portfolio of assets, including stablecoins, $AURI, and carbon credits, to protect against market volatility.

• Smart Contract Audits: Regular audits of smart contracts are conducted to ensure security and the integrity of the staking and bonding mechanisms.

• Regulatory Compliance: Ongoing monitoring and compliance with global regulations reduce the risk of operational interruptions.

• Community Governance: Decentralized decision-making through the governance model allows for collective risk assessment and mitigation.
