Value Accrual

Definition

Value accrual describes the process by which a digital asset or protocol increases in perceived or realized worth over time. This can stem from various factors, including increasing network utility, growing user adoption, scarcity, or the implementation of value-capture mechanisms within the protocol’s design. Understanding how value accrues is fundamental to assessing the long-term economic viability and investment potential of digital assets. It signifies a sustained increase in economic significance.
