Protocol Tokenomics

Definition

Protocol Tokenomics refers to the economic design and incentive structures governing a blockchain protocol’s native digital token. This encompasses the token’s supply, distribution, utility, and how it motivates network participants, such as validators, developers, and users. Effective tokenomics are crucial for a protocol’s long-term security, decentralization, and value accrual. It dictates how value is created and circulated within the system.
