Proposal: Permanently Cap WLFI Token Supply – No More Minting
Summary
This proposal recommends setting a permanent, non-inflationary cap on the total supply of WLFI tokens — with no future minting under any circumstance, similar to Bitcoin’s fixed 21 million supply model.
This would ensure the scarcity, integrity, and long-term value of WLFI by eliminating the risk of dilution through token inflation.
Objective
- Build trust and confidence in WLFI as a scarce and deflationary asset.
- Prevent supply inflation that could undermine token value over time.
- Signal serious long-term vision and economic discipline to the broader crypto market.
Proposal Details
- Total Token Cap: Set a maximum hard cap on WLFI token supply (e.g., 35 billion WLFI — or based on final presale distribution totals).
- Smart Contract Lock: Upgrade or confirm token contract settings that disable future minting functions.
- On-Chain Enforcement: All future WLFI-related proposals must comply with the capped supply — minting additional WLFI would be permanently disallowed.
- DAO Treasury Usage: Future needs (reserves, incentives, rewards) must come from existing circulating or treasury-held WLFI, not new issuance.
Why This Matters
-
Scarcity Preserves Value
The fewer tokens that exist, the more each token can retain or increase in value over time. -
Investor Confidence
Fixed supply reduces uncertainty and makes WLFI more attractive to serious long-term holders. -
Fairness to Early Supporters
Early and presale participants will never be diluted by future minting. -
Simple, Transparent Tokenomics
No complex inflation schedules or hidden supply surprises.
Safeguards
- Token smart contract must be audited to confirm minting is disabled or removed.
- Any change to this cap would require a supermajority DAO vote (e.g., 80%+ yes).
- Public cap confirmation on whitepaper, token page, and explorer.
Conclusion
Capping WLFI’s token supply permanently will:
- Align it with trusted models like Bitcoin and Cardano
- Protect current holders
- Send a strong message: WLFI is built to last, not to inflate.
Let’s lock the supply — and unlock long-term value.
