Token Frameworks
Token Factory
Creators utilizing the Basis Token Factory pick a token on one dial with six families: Stable+ (H100), Utility+ (H50 to H90), Floor+ (H1 to H40), Meme+ (R50 to R10), Yolo+ (R90 to R60) and Yolo (R100). H is the normal curve and R the reversed one. Predict+ is the token of a prediction market. These frameworks address critical market needs by offering novel solutions for stability, growth, and fair participation.
Token Supply and Distribution
Basis Tokens on the normal curve (Stable+, Utility+, Floor+) and Predict+: Supply is 100% elastic:
- Minting: New tokens are minted when users purchase them on the DEX
- Burning: Tokens are burned when users sell them on the DEX
- No pre-minting or fixed total supply; supply adjusts entirely based on demand
- The reversed curve is the exception: on Meme+, Yolo+ and Yolo tokens the curve runs the other way, so supply tightens as they are bought. Yolo (R100) trades like a plain fixed-supply memecoin, and its floor is its launch price.
- In the app, every token starts at 1.00 of its main's pair asset ($1.00 on a USD pair). Starting liquidity is a depth setting, from 10% to 1,000% of the standard depth (deeper means each trade moves the price less). It is not deposited capital: the creator pays nothing for it.
Main tokens (STASIS is the first):
- A main is a Stable+ token paired with a pair asset. STASIS, paired with USDG, is the first main; more mains can be added, each with its own pair asset and its own vault
- Every Basis Token is paired with the main it was created on
- Supply is dynamic: minted on purchase with its pair asset, burned on sale
- Appreciates slowly through slippage retention driven by ecosystem-wide volume
Cascading Growth Effect: Every Basis Token is paired with a main. Any price increase of that main lifts every token paired with it, creating cascading growth throughout the ecosystem.
Trading Fees
Every trade and every bet pays a 0.60% base fee (0.54% for a wallet that has set a referrer). A token's creator can add a creator fee of up to 1% and, on a token created with holder rewards, a rewards fee. The rewards-fee cap depends on the dial: 0.5% at 100, rising to 10% at 1, and 10% on reversed tokens (Meme+, Yolo+, Yolo). Each of the two fees can change at most once every 4 hours today. The base fee is capped at 2% in the contract.
Fees are charged on both buys and sells. A bet pays the same base fee plus the market creator's fee, if one is set; on the order book the buyer and the seller each pay it. Creators can split their fee income across up to 10 wallets.
Fee split: Of the base fee on a token trade, 10% goes to the vault of the token's main (paid to its stakers), 10% to the operating team, 15% to the trader's referrer, 5% to that referrer's referrer and 15% to SOCIAL, which pays the authors of Alpha+ posts on that token. The rest (45%, plus any referral share nobody claims, so 65% when the trader has no referrer) goes to the BASIS buyback. On a bet, the SOCIAL share goes to the buyback too. On loan and leverage fees, and on unwon prize money, the 20% referral slot goes to the token's creator instead and the buyback takes 60%. The creator fee and the rewards fee are paid on top, to the creator and to the token's holders. Everything is paid in the pair asset of the token's main.
No Pre-Minting, Team, or Partner Allocations: All participants must acquire tokens through public purchase. This aligns incentives and prevents unfair advantages.
