Token Price Drivers
Demand Factors
Subscription Payments (Recurring):
10K paid users × 100 $IAI/month = 1M $IAI/month demand
50K paid users × 100 $IAI/month = 5M $IAI/month demand
Campaign Budgets (Growing):
1K campaigns × 10K $IAI avg = 10M $IAI/month demand
10K campaigns × 10K $IAI avg = 100M $IAI/month demand
Staking Lockup (Supply Reduction):
30% staked = 300M $IAI locked
40% staked = 400M $IAI locked
Fee Discounts (Holding Incentive):
Users hold 10K-100K $IAI for discounts
Reduces available supply
Governance (Long-term Value):
Voting rights add premium
DAO treasury control
Platform direction influence
Supply Factors
Token Burns (Deflationary):
Quarterly burns reduce total supply
Permanent removal from circulation
Demonstrates platform success
Vesting Schedule (Controlled Release):
Gradual unlock prevents dumps
Aligned with platform growth
Long-term holder incentives
Staking Rewards (Inflation):
100M over 5 years = 20M/year
Decreasing over time
Offset by burns and demand
