🔵 $BASED Tokenomics
BASED is the heart of the KEK ecosystem, acting as a multi-faceted utility token with deflationary mechanics, staking rewards, VIP tiers, bonding features, and marketplace utility. Combined with the Based Points (BP) system, BASED ensures that early adopters, stakers, and long-term supporters are rewarded at every stage.
Key Facts
Maximum Token Supply: 100,000,000 (100 million BASED)
No additional tokens will ever be minted, ensuring scarcity and supporting a deflationary model.
BASED Points System: Rewarding Early Adopters
BASED Points (BP) allow users to earn rewards before BASED is live.
Non-Transferable: Redeemable 1:1 for BASED tokens after launch.
Earned by Staking KEK: Stake KEK in the early pool to start earning BP.
Enhanced APY: Early stakers benefit from higher reward rates than post-launch pools.
Early Staking Pool
Duration: Limited to 30 days pre-launch.
Rewards: Up to 15,000,000 BASED Points distributed.
Enhanced APY: Higher than standard pools to reward early participation.
Flexibility: No lockup required, though early withdrawal penalties apply.
Example Calculation
Stake 10,000 KEK for 30 days at 100% APY during the early phase:
10,000 × (30 ÷ 365) × 1.0 = 822 BASED Points
These Points convert directly into BASED tokens after launch.

Deflationary Mechanisms
1. Burning for VIP Access
BASED burns unlock VIP tiers, permanently reducing supply.
Example: If 10,000 participants unlock VIP tiers, burning 30 million BASED, that reduces supply by 30%.
2. Marketplace Burns
Between 1% and 5% of all BASED spent in the KEK Bazaar is burned.
3. Penalty Burns
Early withdrawal penalties from staking pools are either burned or redistributed. There are currently no early withdrawal penalties.
4. Bonding Liquidity Locks
BASED and KEK bonded to liquidity are permanently locked, reducing circulating supply.
