Deflationary Burn Mechanism

A Sustainable Token Economy

TAP integrates continuous burn mechanics at the protocol level, permanently reducing supply over time:

• 50% of App Fee Profits Burned – Half of all fee-derived profits from the DigiTap platform are used to buy back TAP on the open market and permanently burn them.

• Penalty Burns from Staking – Early unstaking penalties are burned, increasing scarcity.

• Transaction-Triggered Burns – Select high-volume payment flows trigger additional micro-burns.

Over time, these mechanisms reduce circulating supply, creating upward pressure on scarcity and value, aligning the interests of users, long-term investors, and the protocol itself.

By combining high-yield, non-inflationary staking with multiple burn channels, TAP ensures that every ecosystem interaction, from payments to staking, contributes to token scarcity, value preservation, and ecosystem health.
