Buyback and Burning System

Tokens acquired through onchain monthly buybacks will be allocated as follows:

• 50% immediately burned to permanently reduce circulating supply;

• 50% flows to DAO Treasury reserves for strategic deployment, equally split for staking and trading rewards;

• For months with Exchange volume <$500M (Tier 1 - see the tab below): 100% immediately burned.

Both buyback and burn amounts scale with exchange performance, creating direct correlation between protocol success and token value accrual. The tier system uses monthly trading volume as the key performance indicator.

Following AGP-3, to signal a fresh start and demonstrate commitment to token value preservation, we propose an inaugural symbolic burn, permanently removing 69 million $AEVO tokens from circulation (6.9% total supply).

Monthly Volume Tiers

Volume Tier	Monthly Exchange Volume	Monthly $AEVO Buyback	Monthly $AEVO Burn
Tier 1	$0 - $500M	1,000,000	1,000,000
Tier 2	$500M - $1B	2,000,000	1,500,000
Tier 3	$1B - $2B	3,000,000	2,000,000
Tier 4	$2B - $4B	4,000,000	2,500,000
Tier 5	$4B+	5,000,000	3,000,000

Volume tier thresholds and corresponding buyback/burn amounts will be subject to monthly review. The DAO can adjust tiers based on market conditions and optimize balance between buyback pressure and burns.
