Tokenomics / AELX

AELX Token Economics

Fixed supply. Zero gas. Validator-secured. Deflationary by design.

Fundamentals

Core parameters

Token nameAeltrix (AELX)

Total supply1,000,000,000 AELX

Supply modelFixed cap // immutable

Gas feesNone (bandwidth credits)

Inflation5% annually (validator rewards)

Burn mechanismMEV auction proceeds (partial)

Token Utility

Use cases

1. Staking & Security

Validators stake AELX to participate in consensus. Stake determines voting power and credit allocation.

2. Bandwidth Credits

Staked AELX increases throughput via sqrt(stake). More stake = more credits per epoch.

3. Validator Rewards

Proposers and voters earn inflation + MEV proceeds. Delegators receive proportional share.

4. Governance (Future)

Stake-weighted voting on protocol upgrades. ⅔ supermajority required.

Validator Economics

Reward model

REWARD_MODEL

> REWARD_MODEL:

> inflation_rewards = 5% annual → validators + delegators per epoch

> mev_auction = sealed-bid → proceeds split: validators (80%) + burn (20%)

> premium_lanes = sponsored tx (future)

> PARAMETERS:

> min_validator_stake = configurable (genesis)

> unbonding_period = 7 days

> delegation = allowed

> slashing_doublesign = 5-10% + jail

> commission = per-operator
