Layer3 Price | Utility & Value Explained L3

This VCM represents value generated through value transfer in order to use Layer3's core protocol features. Users spend L3 tokens in exchange for the the ability to post quests, deploy incentives, and utilize the CUBE credentials system. The value capture process is straightforward: users must spend an amount of tokens to acquire the use of these features. This value capture mechanism incentivizes protocol utilization by directly tying token expenditure to core service offerings, driving sustained demand through active usage.

The primary value-capturing structure of Layer3 outlines the three sub-mechanisms jointly conditioned on staking (the central Risk Exposure element)

This sub-VCM represents value generated through staking rewards earned by accepting token lock-up risks in the Layered Staking system. Participants can stake their L3 tokens in different layers, each with specific requirements and reward structures. The value capture process involves:

Users stake L3 tokens, accepting market volatility and opportunity costs (Risk Exposure)
Continuous token emissions are earned based on stake size and duration (Future Cashflow)

The layered approach creates differentiated incentives for various commitment levels, promoting sustainable token economics and long-term protocol alignment.

This sub-VCM represents value generated through gated access to Layer3's additional platform features. Users who stake L3 tokens gain the ability to access the launchpad, exclusive activities (campaigns, quests, incentives) and airdrop multipliers. The value capture process is straightforward: users must maintain a staked token balance to access these features, with different forms of functionality. This gating mechanism ensures aligned participation while driving demand for the token.

This sub-VCM represents value generated through protocol governance rights earned by accepting staking risks and active participation. The governance process follows a structured three-stage system where stakers can influence protocol decisions including treasury management and revenue distribution. The value capture sequence is:

Users must stake L3 tokens, accepting market volatility risks (Risk Exposure)
Governance rights are granted proportional to stake (Governance)
Value is realized through active participation in proposal creation and voting, with requirements like minimum discussion periods and voting thresholds (Conditional Action)

This mechanism ensures that governance power is tied to both economic stake and active protocol engagement.
