$DCM Token - Initial and total supply
Decentria's money, the $DCM token, is an ESDT token built on MultiversX/Elrond network.
The initial supply of 15,200,000 $DCM tokens is distributed as follows:
- 50% - Airdrop for DFC NFT owners - 7.600.000 $DCM
- 12,5% - Marketing & partnerships - 1.900.000 $DCM
- 12,5% - Public sale - 1.900.000 $DCM
- 12,5% - Rewards for NFTs Staking Pools - 1.900.000 $DCM
- 12,5% - Rewards for $DCM Staking Pools - 1.900.000 $DCM
- 0% - Founders and team - 0 $DCM
The total supply of $DCM is NOT capped, but flexible like the currency of any real country. Read below inflationary/deflationary mechanisms and how we aim to keep things in check.
$DCM Airdrop & Claim details
From the initial supply, of 15,200,000 $DCM tokens, 50% will be airdropped to the DFC NFT owners (7,600,000 $DCM) as follows:
- Genesis – minimum* 1000 $DCM/NFT
*Each NFT has an Airdrop base score and a Rarity multiplier.
So, for example, a Legendary NFT will have 5 x 1000 = 5,000 $DCM airdrop. Celestials NFTs will have the biggest airdrops: 10 x 1,000 = 10,000 $DCM (at $0.1 listing price this would be $1,000).
The minimum airdrop is 1,000 $DCM (Common) and the maximum is 10,000 $DCM (Celestial). More details on the NFTs page.
To receive the airdrop, decentrians will have to Claim the tokens in Decentria App.
The claim will be enabled no later than Q4 2023 when other key pieces from Decentria's structure are online.
$DCM mining - Inflation
After the initial supply is distributed, the only way to mint New $DCM is to open New D-Corps through the DCL program, our D-Corps Launchpad.
Learn first what are D-Corps and D-Corps Launchpad.
So $DCM's Total Supply expands every time a new real business is added to the network. As the monetary mass grows, also does the number of users, demand, transactions, and other deflationary mechanisms (detailed in the next section). For every capital the community raises for each D-Corp, an equivalent amount of $DCM + Yield is being minted.
$DCM burning - Deflation
Once functional, D-Corps have a powerful deflationary role in Decentria's monetary mass through a few methods:
- more users into the network => increased $DCM demand;
- small $DCM fees for each payment are being burned;
- a fraction of D-Corps's profit is being burned as $DCM every month;
- bonuses to employees are being paid in $DCM;
- rewards and cashback for customers are being paid in $DCM;
- Decentria's Governance expenses are being paid in $DCM.
Also, D-Corps Launchpad (DCL Program) creates the demand for $DCM in many ways:
- staking $DCM for tickets in D-Corps Pool to access DMBs (Decentria Mining Bonds);
- buying $DCM for DMBs tickets;
- part of D-Corps's reserves are kept in $DCM;
Token metrics
The projected $DCM supply as minted vs burned/staked/locked is presented below in the chart. As new D-Corps are formed the minting will have a small advantage but as time goes on and the network grows (more users, staking, burning) an inflection point will be reached and the curve inverts. From that point on, the model becomes self-sustainable as the network effect kicks in. In our calculations, that moment is no later than mid-2026, without taking into account the delay from DMB's payments which are spread to at least 12 months (new supply has a delay over demand). At that time we should have over 20,000 D-Corps in more than 200 cities from at least 10 countries.
As Decentria's economy grows, the total supply will still expand but slower than Decentria's Network and GDP. At some point the system becomes deflationary and settings can be adjusted to reduce the burn and fees, giving more benefits to decentrians.
As Decentria evolves into a bigger network, users number will increase faster than the D-Corps number. Even when we don't add new D-Corps the existing ones will attract more new users into the system.
Network growth
After opening the first D-Corps we target a linear growth first year and set the system (adjustments to different parameters, and governance structures) for an exponential expansion. The first year's target is to have over 250 D-Corps in 14+ cities from 2-3+ countries:
Then, each year we'll expand faster:
After 5 years we target at least 200,000 D-Corps in over 1,000 cities from 20+ countries, with at least 40,000,000 active users.
Further growth will continue till a critical mass is achieved, a point of no return, and the whole world will be decentralized.
