📈Royalty Distribution System

Automation and Timing

The royalty distribution system within the DePunks ecosystem operates as a pivotal mechanism to reward holders, incentivize ongoing participation, and fuel the growth of the project. Here's how it works:

1. Royalty Collection: Whenever a DePunks NFT is sold or transferred to a new owner on marketplaces, a royalty fee is automatically triggered. This fee is set at 20%.

2. Royalty Distribution: The collected royalty fees are then distributed as follows:

   • Royalty Allocation: The majority portion of the royalty fee is allocated to the owners of the DePunks NFT.

   • $PUNK Token Conversion: The royalty fees collected is converted into $PUNK tokens at the prevailing market rate. This conversion process is executed automatically and transparently within the ecosystem.

3. Token Burn and Airdrop: Once the $PUNK tokens are acquired through royalty fees, 5% of them are permanently removed from circulation through a token burn mechanism. The remaining 95% of $PUNK tokens are redistributed to DePunks holders through a carefully crafted airdrop mechanism. The amount of $PUNK received in the airdrop is proportional to the number of DePunks held by each participant, incentivizing ownership and long-term engagement with the project.

Overall, the royalty distribution system serves as a fundamental component of the DePunks platform, ensuring fair compensation for creators, stimulating ecosystem growth through $PUNK token distribution, and fostering a vibrant and sustainable marketplace for digital art and creativity.
