Autonomous Fiscal Policy
Supply Inflation
Sigmadex proposes inflationary rewards to be distributed to liquidity providers who lock their liquidity for a set amount of days. This parameter will become available when the network rewards pool is completely distributed.
Variables to be set by the community prior to genesis:
| var | description | type |
|---|---|---|
| contractMaxLen | Max duration of a liquidity contract | uint8 |
| minLiquidityStake | Minimum amount of initial liquidity | uint8 |
| interestMultiplier | Interest multiplier relative to timelock |
unit8 |
| inflate | Enables or disables inflation of total supply | bool |
Supply Reduction
We use a deflationary mechanism to balance the inflationary rewards system. Any request for removing liquidity before its contract maturity will result in a penalty deflating the total supply of the tokens based on the remaining days and size of liquidity contribution.
Example:
- Maria adds liquidity to a pool by staking Sigmadex native tokens and DOT.
- She decides to lock her capital in for a period of 365 days.
- 90 days down the line she decides to end her stake early and calls the
withdrawfunction pre-maturely on the smart contract. - Her contribution is penalized using the formula below.
$$-f = p(1 + r)^{nt}$$
5. She receives the penalized amount back in her wallet while the penalty amount is burned from existence. The other half of the liquidity (secondary liquidity tokens) is awarded to users who call the withdraw function after their contracts expire as a bonus for completing a liquidity cycle based on their stake.
Network Bootstrap Rewards
To incentive liquidity mining and staking in the network at early stages, approximately half of the token supply will be awarded to platform users who provide liquidity for tokens. This multiplier reduces as time furthers on and is directly correlated to the length of staked liquidity.
