Token Architecture
PAIRTY is built around two tokens: personal tokens issued by Members and the PRTY utility token that supports the network.
Personal Tokens & The Bonding Curve
Each Member's active social capital economy is founded on a fixed supply of 1,000,000,000 (1 Billion) personal tokens. This granular supply allows accessible entry prices for early backers while enabling significant market cap growth.
Token Allocation
The allocation is hard-coded to align incentives between the Member, their Inviter, and the broader market:
| Allocation | Amount | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Member Allocation | 10% (100M) | Immediate "skin in the game"; inventory for staking in pairings |
| Inviter Allocation | 10% (100M) | Economic engine for the "One Invite" rule—permanent stake in invitee's success |
| Bonding Curve Reserve | 80% (800M) | Locked in smart contract for immediate, automated liquidity |
Pricing Mechanism
Personal token prices follow a quadratic bonding curve denominated in USD (or stablecoin equivalent):
Price = Base_Price × (Supply / Max_Supply)²
Where Base_Price is calibrated at launch to ensure accessible entry for early supporters while providing meaningful upside potential.
Key Properties
- Quadratic growth: Price increases exponentially as supply is purchased, heavily rewarding early believers (high risk, high reward) while stabilizing as Members mature
- Continuous liquidity: No counterparty required—the bonding curve acts as the market maker
- Liquidity reserve: Initially allocated tokens are functionally locked until sufficient external capital flows into the curve
Early Liquidity Safeguards
To protect market integrity during launch, PAIRTY implements multiple safeguards:
- Bonding-curve reserves: Ensuring sufficient liquidity backing at all times
- Liquidity bootstrapping: Controlled initial distribution mechanisms
- Sniper-bot protection: Technical measures preventing automated front-running
- Trading constraints: Graduated limits during early market formation
Trading Fees
Every trade (Buy/Sell) on the bonding curve incurs a 5% transaction fee, creating a recurring revenue engine:
- 2% → The Member: A perpetual royalty on their own trading volume, monetizing the "velocity" of their active social capital
- 3% → The Platform: Funding the PAIRTY treasury and ongoing development
Personal Token Utility
Personal tokens are functional keys to the Member's attention and network:
| Utility | Function |
|---|---|
| Staking for Access | Users must stake a Member's tokens to request Pairings or bypass filters; high demand locks up supply, driving price pressure |
| Reputation Signaling | Holding a token acts as an on-chain "badge of belief," granting priority status in the Member's inbound queue and access to exclusive updates |
| Shared Upside | Users acquire tokens to participate in a Member's future trajectory (e.g., before they announce a major funding round or career milestone) |
The PRTY Token
PRTY is the utility token of the PAIRTY platform. It is used for fees, staking, rewards, and governance.
PRTY has a total supply of 100,000,000,000 (100 billion) with 1 billion in day-one circulation and 99 billion held in an on-chain SupplyController that releases tokens only when sustained price tiers are reached. See Tokenomics for the tier table and the 4-way per-tier distribution split (Staking / Vault / LP / DAO) defined by SupplyController.
PAIRTY collects fees from activities across the platform; these fees support treasury operations, the DAO, and staking rewards. PRTY does not have a buyback program and PRTY supply is not deflated by burns — value accrual comes from staking yield, governance utility, and the price-tier unlock schedule.
PRTY Utility
| Utility | Function |
|---|---|
| Governance | Voting on protocol parameters (fees, invitation rules) |
| Staking | Earning share of protocol fees by locking PRTY |
| Incentives | Rewards for successful Pairings and positive behavior |
| Fees | Network fees and option to pay membership in PRTY |
The Token Economy
Personal tokens and PRTY interact to create a sustainable economy:
- Activity in personal tokens generates PRTY fees
- Pairing uses personal tokens but pays rewards in PRTY
- Membership fees and staking connect Members directly to the treasury
- Each component reinforces the others
