Valueverse Token Classification: Core, Extended & Frontier

We've introduced token classification to make it easier to navigate token revenue streams.

Tokens are divided into three categories based on their revenue distribution history, actual revenue distributed to holders, and annualized revenue.

1. Core — Established Revenue Leaders

The category showcasing the largest and most established revenue-generating tokens.

Requirements:

• More than 180 days of revenue distribution history.
• More than $5M in actual revenue distributed to token holders (not annualized).
• Once the $5M threshold is reached, the token must maintain more than $5M in annualized revenue to remain in Core.

2. Extended — Growing Revenue-Generating Assets

Tokens with a meaningful revenue distribution track record that have not yet qualified for Core.

Requirements:

• More than 90 days of revenue distribution history.
• More than $1M in annualized token-holder revenue.

Tokens can qualify earlier if they have already distributed more than $1M in actual revenue to holders, even without a 90-day history.

3. Frontier — Emerging and Incomplete Value Accrual

This category includes:

• Emerging projects generating less than $1M in token-holder revenue.
• Larger projects conducting token buybacks without burning the repurchased tokens, instead accumulating them in DAO treasuries or similar structures.

Why the second group?

A buyback without a burn does not complete the value accrual cycle for token holders. Tokens are purchased, but supply is not permanently reduced, and holders do not directly receive the repurchased assets.

Until the economic benefit is actually attributed to holders, we do not recognize such buybacks as finalized token-holder revenue.
