The YOYO Token

The YOYO token is the native utility token of the Yo-Yo.ai ecosystem. It is designed to create a sustainable economy that rewards participants while maintaining long-term value.

1.1 Key Features

  • Optimized Fees: Users can stake tokens to gain access to reduced fees of the Yo-Yo.ai vaults. This model ensures that vault users derive tangible value from their YOYO holdings while strengthening engagement with the Yo-Yo.ai ecosystem.

  • Revenue Share: A portion of platform revenue is allocated for periodic distribution to ensure consistent demand for YOYO tokens while incentivizing the token holders that play an active role in strengthening the Yo-Yo.ai ecosystem. This revenue share serves as a demand-driven mechanism, enhancing long-term value for holders. The percentage of revenue allocated will be periodically reviewed to adapt to market conditions and project growth.

  • Incentivization: Staking rewards, liquidity incentives, and trading benefits encourage active participation. Additional incentives include exclusive AI-driven reports and insights for long-term token holders that will promote ecosystem engagement and ensure long-term token sustainability and a strong token-holder community.

  • Governance: Token holders can participate in decision-making processes regarding platform updates and strategic directions. This includes voting on key protocol changes, treasury allocations, staking and liquidity provision reward adjustments, and potential partnerships. A decentralized governance model ensures that community stakeholders have a direct influence on the evolution of the ecosystem.

1.2 Design

The token model prioritizes sustainable value appreciation, aligning incentives between token holders, users, and the project team. It ensures that all participants benefit from long-term engagement through well-balanced token allocation, controlled emissions, and incentives designed to drive continued utility. The model integrates multiple layers of economic reinforcement, including staking rewards, governance influence, and liquidity incentives, to create a self-sustaining and resilient ecosystem. The design principles include:

  • Scarcity Mechanisms: Controlled emission with strategic vesting schedules, ensuring a gradual release of tokens to avoid oversupply in the market. The emission schedule is designed to align with ecosystem growth, maintaining a balance between token availability and demand.

  • Utility-Centric Model: Ensuring tokens have real-world use cases beyond speculative trading. The YOYO token is designed to be a fundamental part of the Yo-Yo.ai ecosystem, providing access to AI-driven tools, staking mechanisms, governance participation, and liquidity provisioning. Token holders benefit from exclusive data insights, automated trading strategies, and platform incentives that enhance trading efficiency and ecosystem participants' additional revenue benefit. Furthermore, YOYO tokens facilitate partnerships and marketing efforts to continue the demand-driven interest for the token.

1.3 Genesis Distribution

The Yo-Yo.ai strategy to build a thriving ecosystem puts the community first. As a result, 66.5% of the total YOYO supply is allocated to community rewards, ecosystem growth, partnerships, and liquidity, ensuring that the people who participate own the future of AI finance.

Furthermore, the strategy includes a Genesis distribution to further amplify community participation and decentralization, along with rewarding early adopters of the Yo-Yo.ai platform. This puts tokens directly into the hands of real users, rewarding active participants who help strengthen and expand the ecosystem.

The Genesis distribution is designed to reward users who engage with more and for longer.

  • Volume-Based Rewards: The user’s proportion of the Genesis distribution will be based on your vault usage by volume and time.

  • No Whales Allowed: A quadratic distribution model prevents excessive accumulation, ensuring fairness for all users and a less centralized token ecosystem.

  • Mystery Snapshot: The review period is undisclosed until finalized, rewarding real participants and not simply speculators.
