Tokenomics: MEXA
MEXA is the primary utility token powering the entire MexaSwap ecosystem. Our tokenomics design focuses on long-term sustainability and supply reduction (deflation).

Deflationary Mechanism (Buyback & Burn)
To maintain MEXA token value increasing over time, we implement an Active Deflation mechanism:
- Trading Fees: A portion of trading fees (0.05%) across the DEX is used to Buyback MEXA tokens from the open market.
- Burning: Bought-back tokens will be burned forever, permanently reducing the total circulating supply.
- Launchpad Penalty: Penalties from early unstaking in Launchpad will also be burned.
Token Utility
- Governance: Voting rights in DAO (via gMEXA).
- Staking Yield: Earn Real Yield dividends from protocol revenue.
- Fee Discounts: Trading fee discounts for holding a certain amount of MEXA.
- Collateral: Can be used as collateral in Perpetual Market features.
