� Breakdown of $DAO tokenomics — or why it might become the most scarce asset on TON: part 1

The $DAO token will be required to access the platform. XDAO is built on a simple but powerful principle: for your organization (DAO) to be active and function, you must deposit and lock $DAO tokens in its balance. You can withdraw them only by deactivating the DAO — which means shutting it down

Here’s the key idea:

The token’s emission is designed so that only 100,000 DAOs can operate at the same time. The rest go into a queue. You can create as many DAOs as you want — but only 100,000 can be activated

This is what drives $DAO’s price in practice:

To activate a DAO, you need $DAO — which gets locked and removed from circulation
The more DAOs are active, the fewer tokens are available on the market
Active DAO count is limited, but demand keeps growing
Each new DAO costs more to create than the previous one (more on th

Limited supply + growing demand = scarcity
And scarcity = price goes up

It’s a model where the growth of the ecosystem directly pushes the token’s value upward

Scarcity and real utility are exactly what make $DAO one of the most promising assets on TON. More tokenomics insights coming soon
