๐Ÿ’ฑProtocol Revenue

SVM is not just a protocol โ€” itโ€™s a self-sustaining, revenue-generating ecosystem. This page breaks down how value flows through the system, where protocol revenue comes from, and how itโ€™s redistributed to stakeholders.


๐Ÿ’ธ Protocol Revenue

The protocol earns fees through several core mechanisms:

๐Ÿงฎ 1. Bonding Curve Sales

  • A 1.5% fee is applied to each buy and sell of $SPTs on the bonding curve.

  • The bonding curve ensures early access and price discovery for each athlete.

  • Revenue from bonding curve sales is also used to fund liquidity on DEXs once an $SPT exits the curve.

๐Ÿ” 2. Post-Curve Trading (DEX)

  • After bonding curve caps are reached, $SPTs trade on external or SVM-integrated DEXs.

  • A 0.3% fee is charged per trade (0.2% for LPs, 0.1% for protocol and reward pools).

๐Ÿงฑ 3. Additional dApps & Use Cases

  • The protocol will launch additional dApps (e.g. an NFT marketplace, advanced staking layers, and more) that generate fees.

  • These fees will further support the $SPT reward pools, reinforcing the ecosystem's sustainability.

  • Each dApp is designed to add utility and value across the $SPT and $SVM ecosystem.

๐Ÿช‚ 4. Staking & Unstaking Fees

  • A 2.5% fee is applied when staking or unstaking from reward pools.

๐ŸŽฏ 5. Reward Pool Participation

  • Each reward pool collects:

    • Trading fees from $SPTs within that pool (bonding curve + DEX)

    • Sales of $SPTs โ€” with a portion sold to fund leaderboard stablecoin payouts, and a larger portion distributed back as staking rewards to its own $SPT pools

    • Fees from staking and unstaking activity

    • Protocol-generated Sporties as contribution incentives


๐Ÿง  Protocol Expenses & Redistribution

SVM ensures long-term sustainability through a fixed breakdown of protocol revenue:

  • 30% โ†’ Sent to the DAO Treasury to fund operations and future initiatives

  • 50% โ†’ Distributed as rewards to $SPT and $SVM holders

  • 20% โ†’ Used to burn $SVM, reducing total supply over time

This model creates a deflationary pressure on $SVM, while also rewarding long-term holders and ensuring protocol development.


๐ŸŸ๏ธ Reward Pools by Competition

SVM maintains a separate reward pool for each sport, competition, or league.

  • Example: Premier League players earn into the Premier League pool; La Liga into La Liga, etc.

  • This ensures fairness and relevance in rewards, and avoids cross-league dilution.

Additionally, 30% of every stablecoin leaderboard payout is used to buy back and burn the top-performing $SPT for that pool โ€” making $SPTs deflationary over time if they perform well.
