The tokenomics reform of a certain DEX platform has attracted attention: a plan to burn 100 million tokens, an on-chain buyback mechanism funded by protocol fees, and the concept of building a proprietary blockchain. These measures are changing the way people value this token.
First, let's look at the scale of the burn. 100 million tokens are permanently removed from circulation, equivalent to approximately $600 million at current market prices. This is not just a marketing gimmick but a systematic correction of historical overissuance.
The core change lies in the "fee buyback engine." 10%-25% of the protocol's trading revenue will automatically trigger on-chain buybacks and token burns. The more active the trading volume, the greater the buying pressure, creating a positive feedback loop between business growth and token scarcity. Regardless of market ups and downs, this mechanism continues to operate—essentially shifting value capture from governance to cash flow.
A deeper level of imagination involves building a proprietary blockchain. Gas fees paid by users within this ecosystem no longer flow to other systems but are incorporated into protocol revenue, which is then redistributed to token holders through the buyback mechanism mentioned above. Costs become revenue, forming a closed economic cycle within the entire ecosystem.
This signifies a fundamental shift in valuation models. Previously, token value mainly derived from governance rights and story premiums. Now, each transaction fee directly translates into actual token income. Based on current data, the implied P/E ratio is only in the range of 12-24, which is a rare undervaluation level among crypto assets.
Community feedback is impressive—97% support rate. Under current policy expectations and technological maturity, this update is seen as a switch from a defensive tool to a value asset. If the next cycle meets expectations, the ranking target will go beyond the current level.

Wow, really? Destroy 600 million, this isn't serious, right?
---
I need to think more about the buyback engine logic; it sounds a bit like an automated market maker strategy.
---
97% approval rate, why does it feel like the community has no opposition voices? Ridiculous.
---
Regarding the self-built public chain, the Gas fee reflows to holders—impressive imagination.
---
Undervalued by 12-24 times. Why do I feel like someone says this every round? Can it really be realized?
---
Raising governance rights to cash flow—that's true value capture, much better than those air tokens.
---
The key is whether trading volume can be sustained. A buyback mechanism without trading volume is just talk on paper.
---
If this reform can really succeed, a surge in rankings wouldn't be surprising, but the premise is not to mess up again.

Listen, PE is only 12-24 times? I have to say, I've heard this kind of argument many times. Every time they claim it's undervalued, but what happens? When it rebounds, they sell. There's always a lower point waiting.
Destroy 100 million tokens, buyback mechanisms, self-built public chains... sounds like a beautiful story, but the market won't lift a finger just because of economic design. So what if the support rate is 97%? Human nature's weakness is chasing gains and selling on dips. I am optimistic about the mechanism, but as for the price? Better to buy more after it drops again.

Wow, the buyback engine with this logic is amazing. The more transactions, the scarcer the tokens become. This is what true value capture is all about.

Wait, this PE is only 12-24 times? In the crypto world? Why do I feel something's off...

Wait, can the fee buyback really work? Or is it just another "self-rescue" drama?
