Revenue
FlameWire's revenue system converts network usage into token demand and supply reduction. The mechanism links product traction directly to token value through an automated buyback and burn process.
Revenue Sources
Developers pay for RPC capacity consumption using four payment options:
- USDC
- TAO
- ETH
- SUI
This approach minimizes friction for both traditional and blockchain-based development teams.
On-Chain Cash Flow
| Step | Process |
|---|---|
| 1. Fee Aggregation | All RPC payments flow into protocol-controlled, publicly viewable wallets |
| 2. Automated Conversion | Approximately every 24 hours, a multisig mechanism exchanges accumulated balances for ALPHA tokens on-chain |
| 3. Deflationary Burn | Purchased ALPHA tokens transfer immediately to a Treasury/Burn address, permanently removing them from circulation |
Programmatic Scarcity
Fixed 21M supply cap with Bitcoin-style halving events. Each burn increases the percentage of supply held by long-term token holders.
Investor Value Proposition
Revenue scales with call volume across Bittensor, Ethereum (coming soon), Sui (coming soon), and future blockchain networks. This ties token demand to genuine network activity rather than inflationary pressure.
- More RPC calls = more revenue = more ALPHA burned
- Supply decreases while demand increases
- Long-term holders benefit from each transaction
Transparency
All mechanics will be publicly auditable via burn.flamewire.io (coming soon):
- Revenue wallets with real-time balances
- Swap transaction IDs for every conversion
- Cumulative burned ALPHA with daily refresh cycles
