MPC Protocol Economy

7.1 Utility-Driven Protocol Economy

The MPC Ecosystem is divided into three areas: Platform Business, Protocol Economy and Asset Economy.

MPC ecosystem
  • Platform business
    • Infrastructure services
  • Protocol economy
    • MPC token utility
  • Asset economy
    • Project-specific asset structure
Three areas of the ecosystem, with separate economic rights
  • Platform Business — the Verification, Data, Asset and Infrastructure Service area.

  • Protocol Economy — the area of Protocol Usage and Ecosystem Participation through the MPC Token.

  • Asset Economy — the per-project area governed by the underlying assets, contracts and rights structure of each Mining RWA. The economic rights and obligations of an Asset Token are defined independently of the MPC Token, by the Project-Specific Issuer and that project's Legal / Asset Structure.

The three areas are connected within one Ecosystem, but their functions and economic rights remain distinct.

7.2 MPC Token

The MPC Token is not an Asset Token representing a specific mine or mineral resource. It is a Utility Token supporting the functions of the MPC Protocol and participation in the ecosystem.

Utility comes from protocol usage.

7.3 Core Utility Framework

The MPC Token is designed to perform the following core utilities within the MPC Protocol.

7.3.1 Issuance Gate Bond

Asset Token Issuance. Used as the Issuance Gate Bond required in the process of issuing a new Mining Asset Token.

7.3.2 Verification and Oracle

Infrastructure Participation. May be used as the Deposit for participating as a Verification Node or Data Oracle, with a Slashing Mechanism applicable to inaccurate or improper verification.

7.3.3 Staking and Access

Ecosystem Participation. MPC Staking may be linked to Early Access or Whitelist participation for new Mining Projects.

7.3.4 Protocol Fees

Issuance and Settlement. Used for Protocol Fees arising in the issuance and settlement of Asset Tokens, and may be linked to a Fee Discount structure when MPC is used.

7.3.5 Governance

Protocol Participation. May be used in the Governance of key Protocol Parameters such as Onboarding Review for new Mining Projects and the Protocol Fee Rate.
