$EITHER Token
Eitherway's native token
1. Token Purpose
The EITHER token is the economic engine of the Eitherway ecosystem. It powers access, unlocks advanced capabilities, rewards creators, and becomes increasingly scarce as platform usage increases. Every major interaction creates token burn pressure, linking ecosystem growth to token value.
More usage → more burn → lower circulating supply → higher scarcity.
2. Token Utility
Subscriptions
Users may pay in fiat/USDC or in EITHER (20% discount when paying in EITHER).
Tokens paid for subscriptions are partially burned.
Credits
Credits power builds, deployments, and GPU compute usage.
Credits purchased with EITHER are burned.
Marketplace
Templates and plugins purchased in EITHER; platform takes a 20% fee.
A portion of fees is burned.
Staking
Lock EITHER to unlock subscription tiers and receive GPU priority (but never above fiat-paying users).
Tokens are locked and removed from circulation.
Governance
Only staked tokens provide voting power.
Aligns decisions with committed users.
Creator Incentives
Creators earn EITHER for marketplace success.
Distributed from incentives pool.
Referrals
Earn a percentage of referred user spend; boosted by staking tier.
Distributed from incentives pool.

Staking provides an alternative to paying for subscriptions in fiat. Fiat-paying subscribers remain top-tier by default.
Staking Power = Tokens Staked × Days Locked

4. Marketplace Economics
Creator Revenue Share
80%
Platform Fee
20%
Payout Currency
Fiat or USDC
Token Sink
20% of platform revenue is used for buybacks and burns
Marketplace activity will fuel ecosystem growth and token scarcity.
5. Burn & Buyback Engine
Direct Burn
User pays with EITHER
Tokens burned instantly
Buyback Burn
20% of monthly revenue allocated for EITHER repurchases
Tokens bought and burned
Utility + revenue = perpetual deflation.
6. Governance
Only staked EITHER grants governance power.
Decisions influence roadmap priorities, integrations, and marketplace rules.
Prevents speculation-driven governance attacks.
Governance aligns with usage and long-term commitment.
7. Token Supply Structure
Token Type
ERC-20
Total Supply
100M fixed (no inflation)
Vesting
Yes, per allocation category
Cross-Chain Expansion

8. Value Accrual Flywheel
More paid usage
More tokens burned
More revenue
Larger buyback burns
Growing creator ecosystem
More marketplace activity → more burn
Higher token price
More staking → less circulating supply
Increased staking
Greater platform commitment
More templates/plugins
More builds and credit usage → more burn
A self-reinforcing system where platform growth continuously feeds token value.
