Transfer Tax Logic
Axynom applies a fixed 2.5% transfer tax on all AXY token transfers. This tax is not arbitrary or inflationary. It is designed to redistribute value back into the protocol’s core systems in a transparent, contract-enforced manner.
The tax applies to all transfers, including buys and sells on decentralized exchanges, peer-to-peer transfers, and internal token movements, unless the sender or receiver is whitelisted. Whitelisting is reserved for system contracts and strategic integrations where recursion, double-taxation, or circular flows must be avoided.
There is no burn. No token is destroyed. Every taxed amount is reallocated into one of three dedicated, on-chain pools.
Tax Breakdown
The 2.5% tax is split as follows:
60% → Rewards Pool This portion funds PoG contributor redemptions and staking yield. It is the primary mechanism for sustaining user incentives without needing perpetual emissions.
20% → Treasury Pool Used to support development, operations, audits, and ecosystem strategy. Controlled via Treasury contract logic and multi-signature governance, with future DAO oversight.
20% → Liquidity Pool Reserved for strategic liquidity injections or LP staking rewards. This allocation ensures long-term trading stability, especially during volatile market periods.
Whitelist Mechanism
Certain addresses may be exempt from the tax, including:
Protocol-owned contracts (e.g. staking, PoG, Treasury)
Internal routing contracts
Future integrations that require recursive token flows
Exemptions are not permanent and can be revoked through governance or upgrade logic. Whitelisting is not granted to individual users, wallets, or third parties unless strictly necessary.
Sustainability by Design
The transfer tax model serves two purposes:
Protocol Self-Funding By embedding revenue into token movement, Axynom reduces its dependence on speculative raises or ongoing token emissions. All incentives are directly linked to usage.
Fair Value Distribution The tax mechanism rewards contributors, supports governance, and stabilizes the protocol without diluting holders. Every taxed token is traceable and publicly accounted for.
The transfer tax is not a barrier. It is a feature. It reflects Axynom’s view that value should cycle back to the ecosystem, not leak into arbitrage or private gain.
By integrating this structure at the token level, Axynom ensures that every transaction contributes to long-term resilience.
