Burn Mechanism

OpenSource implements automatic token burns funded by platform revenue and contributor rewards reserve, creating deflationary pressure through platform activity.

How It Works

Burn Events

• 1,000 $OS burned per repository creation

• 500 $OS burned per code commit

• Burns funded from platform revenue and contributor rewards reserve

• Permanent removal from circulation

Funding Sources

Revenue-Based Burns

• Platform fees converted to $OS for burns

• Infrastructure service payments allocated to burn pool

• Premium feature subscriptions contribute to burns

Reserve Allocation

• Portion of contributor rewards reserve designated for burns

• Ensures sustainability without impacting user tokens

• Transparent on-chain tracking

Economic Model

Platform activity drives token burns. Higher usage creates more burns, reducing supply while revenue streams ensure sustainable funding. The mechanism scales naturally with ecosystem growth.
