TFT Minting Transition Plan

Welcome to the TFT Minting Transition Plan community e-book. This document outlines the proposed changes to the ThreeFold Token (TFT) minting system and introduces a new liquidity framework designed to create sustainable value for all participants.

Purpose

This plan is a living document created to:

  • Share the proposed token economics and liquidity mechanisms
  • Acknowledge areas that still need refinement
  • Invite community feedback and discussion
  • Foster transparent collaboration on the future of ThreeFold's token system

What This Plan Covers

The transition plan introduces several interconnected concepts:

  • Implementation Status & Roadmap: Current progress on marketplace features, infrastructure, and timeline
  • Dual Token System: TFT as a tradable asset and Cloud Credits (CC) as a stable utility token
  • Position-Based Liquidity Pools: A fair, time-weighted approach to rewarding contributors
  • Dutch Auction Exit Mechanism: Controlled, sustainable liquidity with built-in protections
  • Yin-Yang Currency Philosophy: Balancing market efficiency with community cooperation
  • Node Economics & Pricing: Detailed specifications, income projections, and ThreeFold's capacity commitments

:::info Work in Progress This plan represents our current thinking but is not finalized. We are actively seeking community input to refine and improve these mechanisms. :::

Open Questions & Gaps

We acknowledge there are still important decisions to be made and gaps to fill. Your feedback on these issues is particularly valuable:

Key Areas We're Seeking Feedback On:

  • Entry Price: Should the fixed TFT to CC conversion rate be $0.05 or $0.01 per TFT?
  • Peg Currency: Should Cloud Credits be pegged to gold (1/1000 gram) or USD?
  • Liquidity Pool Parameters:
    • What should the maximum exit percentage per period be?
    • What minimum discount is appropriate for Dutch auction exits?
  • Gaming Prevention: Are there scenarios where the system could be exploited that we haven't addressed?
  • Farmer Liquidity: What's the right balance between stability and operational liquidity for farmers?
  • Migration Strategy: How should we transition from v3 to v4 in the fairest way possible?
  • Exit Restrictions: When TFT market price is low, what exit rules best protect the system while serving farmers?
