The Economics of Q

  • The security of the Q Protocol is anchored on actual value protected by the Q framework as well as the value created by projects and protocols that build on Q and/or integrate with Q's governance framework.
  • The philosophy behind Q’s economic model is that a share of the value created by Q accrues to the stakeholders that provide the underlying infrastructure and security: Q’s governance participants and Q token holders.
  • This improves both transaction and governance security provided by Q, which in turn attracts top ecosystem participants.
  • This creates a positive feedback loop, enabling projects and protocols on Q to enjoy shared governance security that is robust, stable, and sustainable.
