Token Distribution¶
Allocation Breakdown¶
pie title Token Distribution (100M Total)
"Community Sale" : 30

Utility & Use Cases¶
1. Governance Voting¶
Token holders vote on proposals:
interface Proposal {
id: string;
title: string;
description: string;
proposer: string;
// Voting power = token balance
votingPower: {
yes: number; // Total $D2G2M voted yes
no: number; // Total $D2G2M voted no
abstain: number; // Total $D2G2M abstained
};
// Quorum: 10% of circulating supply must vote
quorum: 10_000_000; // 10M tokens
// Approval: 51% of votes cast
threshold: 0.51;
}
Examples of decisions: - Transaction fee changes - New feature priorities - Partnership approvals - Treasury spending (>€50K) - Protocol upgrades
2. Platform Fee Discounts¶
Token holders get reduced fees:
| Tier | Tokens Held | Fee Discount |
|---|---|---|
| Bronze | 0 | 0% (base: 2.5%) |
| Silver | 10,000 | 20% (pays 2.0%) |
| Gold | 50,000 | 40% (pays 1.5%) |
| Diamond | 200,000 | 60% (pays 1.0%) |
Implementation:
function calculateFee(amount: number, userTokens: number): number {
const baseFee = 0.025; // 2.5%
let discount = 0;
if (userTokens >= 200_000) discount = 0.60;
else if (userTokens >= 50_000) discount = 0.40;
else if (userTokens >= 10_000) discount = 0.20;
const effectiveFee = baseFee * (1 - discount);
return amount * effectiveFee;
}
3. Staking Rewards¶
Lock tokens to earn yield:
interface StakingPool {
totalStaked: number;
apy: number; // Annual percentage yield
rewards: {
source: 'platform_fees' | 'treasury';
distribution: 'weekly' | 'monthly';
};
}
// Example:
const stakingPool: StakingPool = {
totalStaked: 20_000_000, // 20M tokens staked
apy: 0.12, // 12% APY
rewards: {
source: 'platform_fees',
distribution: 'weekly'
}
};
Calculation:
// User stakes 10,000 tokens for 1 year
const userStake = 10_000;
const apy = 0.12;
const yearlyReward = userStake * apy; // 1,200 tokens
// Weekly distribution
const weeklyReward = yearlyReward / 52; // ~23 tokens/week
4. Access to Premium Features¶
Certain features require token holding:
| Feature | Required Tokens | Monthly Equivalent |
|---|---|---|
| Advanced Analytics | 1,000 | €10 subscription |
| API Access (Pro) | 5,000 | €50 subscription |
| Whitelabel Branding | 10,000 | €100 subscription |
| Priority Support | 500 | €5 subscription |
5. Revenue Sharing¶
Token holders share in platform profits:
interface RevenueShare {
quarterlyRevenue: number;
distributionRate: 0.30; // 30% shared with token holders
perTokenShare: number;
}
// Q1 2027: €100,000 platform revenue
const q1Revenue = 100_000;
const shareableAmount = q1Revenue * 0.30; // €30,000
const circulatingSupply = 50_000_000; // 50M tokens in circulation
// Per token quarterly dividend
const perTokenShare = shareableAmount / circulatingSupply;
// = €0.0006 per token = €0.60 per 1,000 tokens
// User with 10,000 tokens earns:
const userDividend = 10_000 * perTokenShare; // €6 per quarter
Token Launch Strategy¶
Phase 1: Juicebox Crowdfund (Month 3)¶
Parameters:
Platform: Juicebox (juicebox.money)
Target: €100,000
Duration: 30 days
Token Price: €0.01 per $D2G2M
Tokens Offered: 10,000,000 (10M)
Hard Cap: Yes
Refundable: If target not met
Benefits: - Transparent on-chain funding - Automatic token distribution - Built-in refund mechanism - No smart contract coding needed
Example:
// User contributes €100
const contribution = 100;
const tokenPrice = 0.01;
const tokensReceived = contribution / tokenPrice; // 10,000 $D2G2M
// If campaign fails:
// User gets €100 back automatically via Juicebox
Phase 2: DEX Liquidity (Month 6)¶
Uniswap V3 Pool:
Pair: $D2G2M / USDC
Initial Liquidity: €50,000 worth
Price Range: €0.008 - €0.012 (±20%)
Fee Tier: 0.3% (standard)
Lock Period: 6 months
Liquidity Provider Incentives:
// LPs earn:
// 1. Trading fees (0.3% per swap)
// 2. Bonus $D2G2M tokens (liquidity mining)
const lpRewards: LPRewards = {
tradingFees: '0.3% per swap',
bonusTokens: {
apr: 0.25, // 25% APR in $D2G2M
duration: '12 months',
totalBudget: 2_000_000 // 2M tokens
}
};
Phase 3: CEX Listings (Month 12+)¶
Target Exchanges: 1. Tier 2 CEXs (Month 12-18) - MEXC - Gate.io - KuCoin
- Tier 1 CEXs (Month 24+)
- Coinbase
- Binance
- Kraken
Requirements: - €1M+ trading volume on DEX - 5,000+ token holders - Security audit completed - Regulatory compliance
Vesting Schedules¶
Team & Advisors (20M tokens)¶
gantt
title Team Token Vesting (2 Years)
dateFormat YYYY-MM
section Cliff
6-Month Cliff :2027-02, 6M
section Linear Vesting
Monthly Releases :2027-08, 18MDetails: - Cliff: 6 months (no tokens released) - Vesting: 18 months linear after cliff - Monthly: ~1.1M tokens/month released
Smart Contract:
// Simplified vesting logic
function releasableAmount(address beneficiary) public view returns (uint256) {
uint256 elapsed = block.timestamp - vestingStart;
if (elapsed < CLIFF_DURATION) {
return 0; // Still in cliff
}
uint256 vestingElapsed = elapsed - CLIFF_DURATION;
uint256 vestedAmount = (totalAllocation * vestingElapsed) / VESTING_DURATION;
return vestedAmount - releasedAmount[beneficiary];
}
Ecosystem Rewards (10M tokens)¶
Distribution over 3 years:
| Year | Tokens Released | Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| Year 1 | 5M | Early adopter rewards |
| Year 2 | 3M | Community contributions |
| Year 3 | 2M | Long-term engagement |
Examples: - Dealer onboarding: 1,000 tokens per first vehicle sold - NFT minting: 500 tokens per new NFT created - Bug reports: 100-1,000 tokens based on severity - Content creation: 50-500 tokens per article/video
Price Stability Mechanisms¶
1. Treasury Buy-Back¶
DAO can buy tokens during dips:
interface BuyBackProgram {
trigger: {
priceDropPercent: 0.30; // Trigger if -30% from ATH
};
budget: {
maxSpend: 100_000; // €100K per quarter
source: 'treasury';
};
execution: {
method: 'limit_orders'; // Don't pump price artificially
timeframe: '30_days';
};
}
2. Liquidity Incentives¶
Reward LPs during low liquidity:
// If liquidity drops below threshold:
if (liquidityUSD < 200_000) {
increaseLPRewards({
apr: 0.40, // Boost to 40% APR
duration: '60_days'
});
}
3. Staking Encouragement¶
Lock tokens to reduce selling pressure:
// Higher APY for longer locks
const stakingTiers = [
{ duration: '30_days', apy: 0.08 },
{ duration: '90_days', apy: 0.12 },
{ duration: '180_days', apy: 0.18 },
{ duration: '365_days', apy: 0.25 }
];
Comparison: NFT vs Token¶
Genesis NFT Membership¶
NFT benefits: - ✅ Unique collectible - ✅ Fixed supply (1,000 total) - ✅ Higher voting weight (1 NFT = 10 votes) - ✅ Exclusive perks (events, calls) - ✅ Revenue share (Gold/Diamond tiers)
Pricing: - Bronze: 0.01 ETH (~€30) - Diamond: 0.5 ETH (~€1,500)
$D2G2M Token¶
Token benefits: - ✅ Liquid (tradeable on DEX/CEX) - ✅ Divisible (0.000000000000000001 minimum) - ✅ Governance voting (1 token = 1 vote) - ✅ Fee discounts - ✅ Staking rewards
Pricing: - Initial: €0.01 per token - Target (12 months): €0.05-0.10
Which to Choose?¶
| User Type | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Early believer | Genesis NFT (limited supply) |
| Trader | Token (liquidity) |
| Governance focused | Both (max voting power) |
| Passive income | Token (staking) |
| Collector | NFT (unique asset) |
Regulatory Compliance¶
Token Classification¶
$D2G2M is a UTILITY token, not a security:
Utility characteristics: - ✅ Platform governance - ✅ Fee discounts - ✅ Access to features - ✅ Decentralized (DAO controlled)
Not a security because: - ❌ No investment contract - ❌ No profit expectation from others' efforts - ❌ No centralized management - ❌ Functional utility from day one
Legal opinion: Required from German crypto lawyer before launch.
German BaFin Compliance¶
Requirements: 1. Prospectus (if public sale >€8M) 2. KYC/AML (for contributors >€1K) 3. Tax reporting (tokens are taxable income) 4. Data privacy (GDPR for user data)
D2G2M approach: - Public sale <€1M (no prospectus needed) - KYC via Juicebox integration - Tax reporting automated - Privacy policy in place
Smart Contract Security¶
Audits¶
Required before launch: 1. Internal review - Team + advisors 2. External audit - CertiK or OpenZeppelin 3. Bug bounty - Community testing (€10K pool)
Contract Features¶
// Key security features:
contract D2G2MToken is ERC20, Ownable, Pausable {

// 2. Max supply enforced
