STANDARD's Tokenomics: Understanding its Economic Engine

STANDARD (STANDARD) is an innovative cryptocurrency that combines various mechanisms to create a unique economic system. At its core, STANDARD has one currency ($STANDARD), one market (ETH <> $STANDARD pool on Uniswap v4), and one authority (the central bank). The central bank operates based on immutable code, with bankers holding charters that run bank branches.

The bank branches earn the currency issued by the central bank. When capital flows into the economy, it loosens policy, increases $STANDARD issuance, and stacks hard reserves (tokenized gold). Conversely, when capital leaves, it tightens policy, triggers buybacks and burns, and prices the exits.

The tokenomics of STANDARD are crucial for understanding its long-term value and sustainability. The maximum number of STANDARD tokens is capped at a certain amount (Max Supply), with a current circulating supply significantly lower than this hard cap. The inflation rate reflects how fast new tokens are introduced, affecting scarcity and price movement.
