Economic Model

The economic model of the "Mort and Retardio" universe is designed to sustain a vibrant ecosystem where creativity, participation, and financial incentives are aligned. This model integrates various elements such as tokenomics, revenue sharing, and asset monetization to create a dynamic marketplace that supports both growth and community engagement.

Minting and Sales

The minting process for Soul Bound Tokens (SBTs) and digital assets is a foundational activity within the "Mort and Retardio" ecosystem:

• SBT Minting: SBTs are minted through an allowlisted, phased process with two rounds of sales at predetermined prices, with $MORT holders getting access to round one. This approach helps manage the distribution and ensures that early supporters can participate at a lower cost, while later rounds reflect the growing value of the project.

• Digital Asset Sales: Once digital assets are created and approved, they can be launched through the platform via mint sales or auctions. SBT holders, acting as curators, initiate these sales, providing a direct pathway for contributors to monetize their creations.

Revenue Sharing

Revenue generated from the minting of SBTs and sales of digital assets is shared among various stakeholders to maintain motivation and support the ecosystem:

• SBT Holders: Receive a percentage of the mint revenue and ongoing royalties from the sales of digital assets. This incentivizes them to curate high-quality content and maintain the integrity of the brand.

• Contributors: Artists and creators receive a significant portion of the revenue from the initial sale of their assets and a substantial share of the royalties, rewarding them for their creative input and ongoing contribution to the ecosystem.

• The Company: A predetermined share of mint revenue and royalties goes to the company to fund operations, marketing, development, and further expansion of the "Mort and Retardio" universe.

Token Utility and Incentives

$MORT tokens play a critical role in facilitating transactions and incentivizing participation within the ecosystem:

• Utility: $MORT is used for transaction fees, asset purchases, and payments to contributors, creating a liquid market for services and goods within the universe.

• Incentives: The need for $MORT to perform various activities within the platform creates demand for the token. As the universe expands and the number of transactions increases, the value of $MORT is expected to rise, benefiting holders and participants.

• Staking and Rewards: Participants, especially SBT holders and contributors, can stake $MORT to earn rewards, further aligning their interests with the long-term success of the project.

Asset Monetization and Sustainability

• Asset Store: Digital assets approved and minted into the marketplace become available for purchase, providing a continuous revenue stream for creators and curators.

• Commercial Use: High-quality assets that gain popularity and are integrated into larger commercial projects (such as films or games) can command higher prices and generate significant royalties, contributing to the sustainability of the ecosystem.

This economic model is designed to foster a self-sustaining, growing digital economy where participants are motivated by both creative fulfillment and financial benefits. By carefully balancing the needs and rewards of different stakeholders, "Mort and Retardio" aims to build a lasting, expansive digital universe that continuously attracts new talent and investment.
