The Moats
A simplified framework for liquidity management and community governance
FortiFi 2.0 is excited to announce the launch of The Moats, a new protocol that makes revenue sharing and community governance simple. Our innovative system streamlines revenue sharing and governance management, giving teams & founders the tools to build stronger, more engaged communities.
The Moats offer customizable staking, locking, and burning options, allowing token holders to participate in a way that suits them best. Experience a more efficient and rewarding approach to community governance and revenue sharing. To understand the full potential of The Moats, let's explore the core modules: staking, locking, EEL, burning, and multipliers.
An Overview of The Moat:
The Moats protocol introduces a sophisticated framework for revenue sharing and community governance, designed to empower token holders and drive sustainable growth. At its core, The Moats features a suite of customizable modules, each offering unique mechanisms for participation and reward distribution. These modules work in concert to foster a dynamic and engaging ecosystem, ensuring that active contributors are proportionally rewarded.
Staking provides users with immediate liquidity and a straightforward way to earn platform fees. Users can stake their tokens without any lock-up period, allowing for instant unstaking. However, a nominal 0.5% fee applies to unstaking transactions, contributing to the protocol's sustainability. Staking provides a baseline 1x multiplier for reward distribution.
Locking offers a tiered reward system, incentivizing long-term commitment. By locking tokens for extended periods, up to 48 months, users can earn a significantly higher percentage of platform fees. The longer the lock-up duration, the greater the reward multiplier, ranging from 2x to 5x. Similar to unstaking, unlocking incurs a 0.5% fee.
Notably for locking tokens, the multiplier for remains constant throughout the lock period. This means the multiplier does not depreciate over the duration of the lockup period. A 5x multiplier remains a 5x multiplier for the entire 730 day lockup. Once a locked position reaches Day 0, the multiplier is dropped to a flat 2x.
The Emergency End Lockup (EEL) function provides a crucial safety net, allowing users to immediately withdraw locked tokens in unforeseen circumstances. However, this flexibility comes with a dynamic fee structure. EEL usage incurs a fee inversely proportional to the percentage of the lock-up period completed. Early exits result in higher fees, while later exits incur lower fees. Additionally, utilizing the EEL function removes all accumulated locking multipliers. It's important to note that the mathematical calculation for EEL fees and locking multipliers remains consistent, regardless of the maximum lock-up period defined by the Moat creator.
Burning offers the highest reward potential for users willing to commit their tokens permanently. By sending tokens to a designated "dead address," users earn a significant 10x multiplier. This action is irreversible, and users should fully understand the consequences before proceeding. Burning transactions incur no fees.
Multipliers are central to The Moats' reward distribution system. They calculate and distribute rewards within the protocol and determine eligibility for FortiFi airdrops. Multipliers for modules are tiered, enabling reward distribution to be directed towards more committed and devoted users.
Staking: 1x multiplier
Locking: 2x - 5x multiplier (depending on lock-up duration)
Burning: 10x multiplier
The ‘Average Multiplier’ takes the weight across all three modules. The multiplier system incentivize active participation, enabling users with smaller token holdings or strong conviction to increase their reward potential through locking and burning. Using the EEL function removes all locking multipliers. The multipliers are used to distribute rewards for Moats and to calculate the FortiFi Airdrop.
The Moats protocol is designed as a versatile tool, ready to be deployed for any token, whether ERC20, ERC314, ERC404, or LP that incorporates a fee structure, emissions model, rewards scheme, or seeks a secure and engaging governance solution. Moat deployers gain access to a comprehensive Admin Dashboard, enabling easy participant snapshotting, airdrop distributions, and much more. The ability to customize module deployment—staking, locking, and burning—and define maximum lock-up periods provides unparalleled flexibility for custom community governance and revenue sharing programs.
FortiFi is thrilled to partner with Bensi Box as they take a major step forward in strengthening their token ecosystem. Their dedicated Moat is now live on the Avalanche C-Chain, providing $BENSI holders with powerful new utilities, including staking, locking, and burning in conjunction with their Royalty Sharing program. This launch marks an important milestone for Bensi Box, offering the community enhanced ways to engage with the Bensi Box ecosystem. Explore the Bensi Box Moat today:
