Blockchain Economic Model

Definition

A blockchain economic model describes the incentive structures and financial mechanisms that govern a decentralized network. This model defines how value is created, distributed, and sustained within a blockchain ecosystem, including aspects like token issuance, transaction fees, staking rewards, and governance mechanisms. It shapes the behavior of network participants, ensuring the network’s security and functionality. The design of this model is crucial for the long-term viability of any decentralized ledger.
