Background
According to the BTTC chain’s token deflationary economic model, the reduction in total token output will significantly enhance the scarcity and long-term value of BTT. However, this change also requires an optimization of the current reward mechanism to ensure alignment with the updated economic model and to support the network’s sustainable development.
Core Proposal Content
Staking APY Adjustment
-
Necessary Adjustment Due to Reduced Token Output
With the reduction in total token output on the BTTC 2.0 network, the total amount of on-chain token rewards will also decrease. The current staking APY no longer aligns with the updated token economic model, making this adjustment necessary and reasonable. -
Enhancing Decentralization and Security
Following the BTTC 2.0 upgrade, more validator nodes are expected to join the network and take on validator roles. The increase in the number of nodes will significantly distribute the reward pool, enhancing the network’s decentralization and security. Additionally, it will provide more validators with fair participation opportunities. After reducing the APY, staking rewards will be distributed more reasonably, ensuring the long-term stability of the network.
Proposal Goals
-
Optimize the Reward Mechanism
Ensure that reward distribution aligns with the updated token economic model after the reduction in token output, enhancing the long-term value of BTT. -
Promote Decentralization
Attract more nodes to join the network, further improving the network’s decentralization and security, and providing stronger resilience for the ecosystem. -
Facilitate Sustainable Network Development
Adjusting APY to better allocate resources and support the healthy operation of the token economic model, laying a solid foundation for the long-term development of the ecosystem.
Expected Impact
- Impact on Users
After the APY adjustment, users’ staking rewards will decrease. However, with the enhanced scarcity and long-term value of the token, users’ overall asset value will become more sustainable. - Impact on Validator Nodes
A more reasonable reward distribution mechanism will attract more validator nodes to join, further strengthening the network’s security and stability. - Impact on the Ecosystem
The APY adjustment will optimize resource allocation, support the healthy operation of the token economic model, and provide a stronger foundation for the ecosystem’s long-term development.
