Important Info
Stargaze.fi is a decentralized media protocol. It’s a new layer 1 and infrastructure purpose-built for decentralized social with Cosmos. This ensures it’ll have cheap gas and great UX, while still being interoperable with Ethereum and other Cosmos chains.
STARS is a staking token with mint and burn mechanics.
Mint
STARS has dynamic emission and no supply cap. Inflation is used to incentivize staking participation in the network, and varies between 7% and 20% based on how much is staked. It is inversely proportional to the staked amount. As the staked to total supply ratio falls below 67%, inflation increases, and vice versa.On each block, 45% inflation goes to validators, 5% to the DAO (community pool), and 50% to reward pools that hold UCI payouts.
Burn
Stargaze has two token burn mechanisms.
-
Whenever a native post is created on Stargaze, half the storage cost is burned while the other half goes to the block proposer as payment for storage. Storage cost is based on a specific amount of STARS per byte, as determined by governance. Therefore, the value of STARS increases as more content is posted to the blockchain.
-
Whenever a native post (NFT) is purchased, a 10% fee is charged and burned.
