Bonding Curve Parameters

Price Formula

P(x) = P_min + (P_max - P_min) / (1 + e^(-k(x - x_mid)))

Where:

  • P_min = $0.001 (starting price)

  • P_max = $0.015 (maximum price)

  • x = tokens sold

  • x_mid = 50,000,000 (midpoint)

  • k = curve steepness coefficient

Key Metrics

  • Initial Market Cap: $100,000 (at $0.001)

  • Final Market Cap: $1,500,000 (at $0.015)

  • Average Price: ~$0.0075 per MEME

  • Price Range: 15x from start to finish

Market Dynamics

Buy Pressure Sources

  1. Platform Usage: Meme token creation fees

  2. Governance Participation: Voting power demand

  3. Staking Rewards: Fee sharing incentives

  4. Liquidity Mining: LP token staking

Sell Pressure Sources

  1. Liquidity Mining Rewards: 200M over 3 years

  2. Team Vesting: 37.5M/year after cliff

  3. Treasury Usage: Development funding

  4. Ecosystem Incentives: Growth programs

Net Pressure Analysis

  • Year 1: Neutral to positive (high APRs offset emissions)

  • Year 2: Slightly negative (reduced rewards)

  • Year 3+: Positive (platform maturity)

Success Metrics

Short Term (0-3 months)

  • Reach $750K target

  • 1000+ unique buyers

  • <20% held by top 10 wallets

  • Stable price post-migration

Medium Term (3-12 months)

  • $10M+ liquidity depth

  • 10,000+ token holders

  • Active governance participation

  • Platform integration complete

Long Term (1-3 years)

  • $50M+ market cap

  • Self-sustaining liquidity

  • Profitable platform operations

  • Decentralized ownership

Conclusion

The MEME bonding curve model provides:

  1. Fair Launch: No presale, no team allocation at launch

  2. Deep Liquidity: $750K initial pool

  3. Sustainable Economics: Balanced emission schedule

  4. Growth Potential: Platform revenue accrual

This approach aligns incentives between early supporters, long-term holders, and platform users, creating a sustainable economic model for the MemeTrade ecosystem.
