Tokenomie pentru ZIGCOIN (ZIG)

ZIGChain, a Layer 1 blockchain focused on democratizing wealth generation, utilizes its native utility token, ZIG, within a comprehensive token economics framework built on the Cosmos SDK. This framework is designed to ensure network security, decentralized governance, and sustainable ecosystem growth.

Issuance Mechanism

The issuance of ZIG tokens is managed by the Mint module from the Cosmos SDK. This module is responsible for regulating the supply of ZIG tokens to maintain a sustainable token economy through controlled inflation.

While the exact total supply or specific inflation rate is not detailed, the mechanism is structured to:

• Control Supply: The Mint module ensures controlled issuance of ZIG tokens.
• Support Sustainability: The issuance mechanism is designed to support the long-term sustainability of the network.

Allocation Mechanism

Specific details regarding the percentage breakdown of ZIG token allocation (e.g., for the team, investors, or community) were not available in the provided data. However, the network's structure indicates that allocations are managed through the Distribution module and the Governance module of the Cosmos SDK.

The Distribution module manages the allocation of staking rewards to validators and delegators, while also maintaining the community pool for ecosystem development. This suggests a portion of the token supply is reserved for funding and growing the ZIGChain ecosystem.

Usage and Incentive Mechanism

The ZIG token serves as the Native Utility Token of the ZIGChain ecosystem, driving security, governance, and participation. The incentive structure is primarily centered around the network's Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism and decentralized governance.

Primary Uses of the ZIG Token:

1. Staking and Network Security: ZIG tokens are used to secure the network through staking. Participants (Validators and Delegators) lock ZIG tokens to contribute to the network's security and resilience.
2. Governance: ZIG tokens grant holders participation rights in the network's decentralized decision-making process. Users can vote on proposals, where each ZIG token equals one vote, to change parameters such as fees and the validator count, or to decide how to spend the treasury.
3. Transaction Fees (Gas Fees): A small fee, known as the Gas Fee, is paid upfront in ZIG for each transaction on the ZIGChain network.
4. Ecosystem Development: ZIG is used to fund ecosystem growth, notably through the ZIGLabs venture initiative, which offers $100 million in growth capital to support innovative founders and projects building on ZIGChain.

Incentive Structure:

Incentives are distributed to participants who secure the network:

• Validators (Node Operators): Earn rewards from transaction fees and block rewards for validating transactions, creating new blocks, and maintaining secure infrastructure. They are selected based on the total amount of delegated ZIG tokens (self-staked plus delegators).
• Delegators (ZIG Holders): Earn a portion of the block rewards and transaction fees by delegating their ZIG tokens to validators.

The Slashing module acts as a disincentive mechanism, enforcing network security by penalizing validators for misconduct, such as double-signing or prolonged downtime. Delegators share in these risks, including potential slashing penalties.

Locking Mechanism

The primary locking mechanism for ZIG tokens is Staking, which is essential for the network's Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus.

Staking and Locking Details:

• Purpose: Staking involves locking ZIG tokens to enhance network security and governance.
• Participants: Both Validators (who operate nodes) and Delegators (who delegate tokens to validators) lock ZIG tokens.
• Slashing Risk: Tokens locked for staking are subject to the slashing mechanism, where a portion of the staked ZIG can be penalized if the chosen validator engages in malicious behavior.

The provided information confirms the existence of the staking mechanism but does not specify minimum or maximum staking amounts, nor does it detail any other locking mechanisms (such as time-based vote-escrow models) beyond the core staking requirement.

Unlocking Time

Specific details regarding the vesting schedules, cliff periods, or unlocking times for initial token allocations (e.g., for the team, investors, or foundation) were not available in the provided data.

However, for tokens locked in the staking mechanism, the process of undelegation (unlocking) is implied, as delegators must be able to retrieve their tokens. The exact duration or waiting period for undelegating ZIG tokens was not specified.
