Deflationary Forces on Maximum Supply
EDEN's Role in Controlling Supply
EDEN introduces a smart inflation-control mechanism via a MaxAPR design.
Each pool has a predefined MaxAPR (e.g. 75%)
The protocol determines how many EDEN should be minted to match that APR
If less is needed based on user activity, EDEN is not minted
Since EDEN = ELYS, any un-minted EDEN = un-minted ELYS
Example:
Protocol can mint 10,000 EDEN/day
Only 700 are needed
9,300 EDEN are skipped
Result: 9,300 ELYS tokens are never minted
This results in a maximum supply reduction. As of May 2025, the Impact:
Supply not created: 7.5M tokens
New max supply: 192.5M ELYS, down from the original 200M
ELYS Taker Fee
With each swap transaction, a taker fee is charged.
The current Taker Free is 0.05%
The Taker Fee is used to automatically purchases ELYS (if needed), then sends the ELYS to be burned
The burned ELYS reduces the maximum supply at a 1-for-1 basis.
