Staking
Case Study: Perpetual DEX Tokenomics
Full tokenomics model for a perpetual DEX: allocation, vesting, fee structure, staking, market model, and treasury. Embedded Google Sheets with 15 tables.
Validator Payment Models: Economics of PoS Networks
How validator economics work: reward models (emission, fees, MEV), slashing, delegation. Yield formulas, PoS network comparison, node unit economics.
Validator Profitability Calculator
Validator profit calculation: staking income, network fees, node costs, and breakeven stake.
5 Token Demand Models
Five demand models for token utility: Discount, Payment, Ownership, Securities, Value Transfer. Formulas, real-world examples, and a selection algorithm.
Token Velocity: Why Payment Tokens Lose Value
Token velocity and price: MV=PQ equation, the velocity paradox, velocity sinks (staking, burning, locking), interactive calculator, and Python simulation.
Staking: Economics, Models, and Reward Design
Staking economics in tokenomics: APR vs APY, inflationary vs real rewards, liquid staking, and slashing. Formulas, simulation code, and a yield calculator.
Staking Calculator
Staking yield calculator: compute real APR (nominal minus inflation plus fee revenue), APY with daily compounding, and compare staking scenarios by TVL.
