Part I: Dfyn Burn Auction — An Innovative Step

We are thrilled to launch the Dfyn Burn Auction, a revolutionary feature that signifies a turning point for our platform and the DFYN token. This new model is designed to substantially reduce the circulating supply of DFYN tokens, instigating a potential deflationary effect. We commit to burning 60% of all fees collected on our platform each week, setting a path to a significant reduction in the DFYN token supply.

The Dfyn Burn Auction Mechanism:

  1. Fee Aggregation: All fees generated on the Dfyn platform are gathered to form an asset pool.
  2. Auction Engagement: Users participate in the auction using their DFYN tokens.
  3. The Highest Bidder Triumphs: The user with the highest bid wins the auction. Their DFYN tokens are immediately incinerated, thereby reducing the circulating supply of DFYN tokens.
  4. A Cycle of Burns: After each burn, a new auction period begins, leading to a continuous cycle of token burning.

Part II: Replacing the vDfyn Model

The vDfyn model, despite its merits, had implications for the value trajectory of DFYN tokens. As fees collected on the Dfyn exchange were funneled to vDfyn holders, the resultant inflation of the token supply could impede the value of the DFYN token over time.

Comparative Benefits over the vDFYN Model:

  • Value Appreciation Potential: The Fee Auction Burn Model prioritizes burning a portion of the exchange fees, orchestrating a deliberate reduction in the token supply. This deflationary model might prove more advantageous for the DFYN token’s value trajectory.
  • Community Engagement: The Fee Auction Burn Model fosters wider community involvement, promoting transparency and fairness in the token burning process, as opposed to the concentration of influence in the vDfyn model.

The limitations of the vDfyn model, including its inflationary character and potential power centralization, necessitated a reevaluation of our approach. In response, Dfyn Network is phasing out the vDfyn model, leading us to this exciting phase of implementing the Dfyn Burn Auction.

Part III: A Deflationary Future for Dfyn Network

The transition to the Dfyn Burn Auction model underscores Dfyn Network’s commitment to enhancing the long-term sustainability and value proposition of DFYN tokens. By adopting this deflationary approach, we aim to foster an ecosystem that privileges token holders, boosts community engagement, and synergizes incentives for the project’s long-term prosperity.

As of June 17th, 2023, we will be phasing out the vDfyn model. Looking towards our roadmap, we’re planning to introduce the innovative Fee Auction model (date to be announced), further bolstering our commitment to value creation and community engagement.
