The Economic Model
Every dollar flowing through the Render Network Protocol follows the same deterministic cascade. No exceptions.The Revenue Cascade
ARP (Audience Reward Pool)
10% of every dollar is taken off the top and distributed to the audience that generated the engagement. This is policy-enforced — not optional, not adjustable by creators or the platform.Creator Share
50% of post-ARP revenue goes directly to the creator. No negotiation, no minimum thresholds.Platform Share
50% of post-ARP revenue goes to the platform, allocated as:- 70% Treasury: Operational expenses, development, infrastructure.
- 20% Buyback & Burn: Purchases $555 on the open market and burns it permanently. Creates structural deflation.
- 5% $555 Reserve: Token reserve for protocol operations.
- 5% SOL/USDC Reserve: Stablecoin reserve for settlement liquidity.
Points System
Points are the user-facing reward unit.| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Exchange Rate | 10,000 points = 1 USDC |
| Transferable | No |
| Earning | Verified gameplay, engagement, daily bonuses |
| Daily Bonus | +100 points per game per wallet per CST day |
How Points Work
- User plays a game or engages with a stream.
- VAP verifies the engagement.
- Points are awarded based on the game’s normalization rules.
- Points accumulate in the user’s account.
Credits System
Credits are the settlement-ready unit.| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Source | Points conversion |
| Tracked | Database ledger |
| Settlement | Weekly engine or self-withdrawal |
| Payout | USDC to user’s Solana wallet |
Settlement Engine
- Weekly: Engine snapshots all credit balances and processes USDC payouts.
- Self-Withdrawal: Users can withdraw earned credits at any time.
- Minimum: Configurable minimum withdrawal threshold.
The ARP / Buybacks / Treasury Engine (10/20/70)
At the platform level, token allocation follows the 10/20/70 (ARP / Buybacks / Treasury) model:- 10% of all ecosystem revenue → ARP (audience rewards)
- 20% of platform share → $555 buyback and permanent burn
- 70% of platform share → treasury and operations
