$LUME Tokenomics

The LUME token powers access and governance:

• Stake LUME to unlock creator tools, and post a bond when publishing strategy markets.

• Holders help set fees, limits, and risk parameters—using prediction‑style governance to test and tune what works over time.

Total Supply:

LUMEX is capped at a max supply of 100 million tokens, ensuring scarcity and long-term value alignment. ICO Allocation:

Lume is launching 10M ICO tokens through a fair, community-first ICO — no private rounds, no insider discounts, and no preferential pricing.

Every participant enters on equal terms, reinforcing Lume’s core philosophy of open, transparent, and on-chain markets.

Built-In Liquidity for Market Depth:

A total of 5 million LUMEX is reserved to ensure deep and healthy liquidity from day one.

Total 5 Million tokens will be paired with 20% of the funds raised during the IPO to seed the primary LUMEX–SOL pool. This guarantees that LUMEX will be tradeable from launch, supporting both speculative and utility-driven use cases across the ecosystem.

Team Allocation — Performance-Linked & Aligned:

The team allocation totals 12.5 Million LUMEX, fully locked for 18 months after launch.

Post-cliff, tokens unlock in five 20% tranches, each triggered when LUMEX’s market capitalization doubles from its post-launch fully diluted valuation (FDV).

This structure ties the team’s upside directly to sustainable ecosystem growth — rewarding execution, not early access — and ensures deep alignment between the builders, traders, and community.

Fair Launch Philosophy

No VC advantage. No special tiers. No unfair pricing. Every participant enters at the same rate, preserving fairness and trust — critical for a platform where market sentiment, social influence, and prediction outcomes drive value.

The liquidity design ensures that markets stay active, fair, and stable, while the performance-linked team model guarantees that long-term execution is rewarded — not early access.

Monetization & Incentives

• Fees: trading (AMM), settlement, copy-trade; discounts with LUME stake.

• Creator revenue: percent of market fees + tips + subs.

• Stake rewards: share of protocol fees + liquidity vault yield.

LUMEX Token Utility — The Core Engine of the Lume Platform

LUMEX is the native token powering the entire Lume ecosystem — from creator activation and market creation to liquidity seeding and governance. It fuels the incentives, trust, and coordination that make Lume’s social trading and prediction markets self-sustaining and community-driven.

​​1. Stake to Unlock

Staking LUMEX grants access to creator and pro-trading features across the Lume platform.

• Unlock creator tools: publish strategies, analytics dashboards, and profile badges.

• Anti-spam mechanism: publishing or posting a call requires a small bonded stake that can be slashed for abuse or fraudulent activity, ensuring content quality and market integrity.

2. Spin Up Prediction Markets

Staked holders can create permissionless prediction markets on price targets, trading ranges, or event outcomes.

• Requires LUMEX bond to open a market (refunded after clean settlement).

• Bonds can be slashed in cases of manipulation, stale outcomes, or oracle violations.

In short Every staked creator becomes a mini-market maker — turning ideas into tradable on-chain events.

3. Protocol Liquidity — Backed by Stakers

• A portion of staked LUME routes to Protocol Liquidity Vaults that seed YES/NO pools.

• Earns a share of AMM fees + creator fee; protects thin markets at launch.

4. Medium of Trade (Optional Toggle)

• Markets accept USDC by default (UX/compliance).

• Creators can opt-in to LUME pairs (LUME↔YES/NO) or fee discounts when posting LUME-denominated markets.

Governance

• LUME holders vote on fee schedules, creator fee caps, oracle sets, bond sizes, and market templates.

• Use futarchy-style polls (decision markets) for parameter changes: holders back outcomes, not just opinions.
