Utility
Staking
The ASTRL token can be staked to receive 33% of Astrolescent's revenue after direct operating costs by operating the different Astrolescent products, like the aggregator, the bridge, and the validator node. Operator costs include hosting costs but do not include any distributed to the team or used for marketing and business development as described in the tokenomics below.
The expected APY based on a 33% fee share and 3 million staked ASTRL is 10% to 15% yearly.
At the start of each quarter, an overview of all the earned fees and the direct operating cost of the previous quarter will be published. The 33% share for ASTRL stakers will be converted to ASTRL via the Astrolescent aggregator (bought on the market) and distributed linearly over the 12 weeks of the new quarter at a random day and time each week to prevent gaming of the staking system. This should ensure tokens stay staked over a longer period.
The distribution of the fees will start on January 1st, 2024, with the distribution of the fees earned in Q4 2023.
To stimulate ASTRL staking in December 2023, a couple of unannounced airdrops will be made, similar to the fee airdrops starting in 2024.
Voting
ASTRL and sASTRL can both be used to vote on governance votes by the AstrolescentDAO.
