# ORE: Adopt a sublinear supply function?
|
|
|
|
## Summary
|
|
ORE approved a fundamental change to its tokenomics: reducing the supply cap from 21 million to 5 million tokens and implementing a 10% annual reduction in emissions rate (replacing infrequent halvings). The new curve reaches 50% dilution by ~year 5, 90% by ~year 18, and full dilution by ~2052. This makes ORE an order of magnitude scarcer than Bitcoin when fully diluted.

## Significance
|
|
This represents futarchy governing a critical monetary policy decision — the permanent supply curve of a proof-of-work token. The market approved a more deflationary model that balances competing community preferences: reduced FDV (addressing buyer sticker shock), faster-than-Bitcoin decay, order-of-magnitude scarcity, and ~30 years of mining runway. Described as "a major step forward in ORE's hardening process" toward freezing the contract permanently.

|
|
|
|
Should ORE migrate to a deflationary emissions curve and reduce the supply cap to 5m tokens?
|
|
|
|
When ORE launched in April 2024, it was built with a linear emissions rate of 1 ORE/min and uncapped total supply. In response to overwhelming feedback from the community, we introduced an artificial supply cap of 21m tokens in the redesign of v2.
|
|
|
|
Over the last few months, the ORE community has continued to voice interest in accelerating ORE's distribution. After considering a series of alternative models, we propose:
|
|
|
|
1. Reduce the supply cap from 21m to 5m tokens
|
|
2. Reduce the emissions rate by 10% every 12 months
|
|
|
|
ORE's current limit of 21m tokens was originally chosen to mimic Bitcoin's total supply count. With a supply cap 4.2x lower, ORE's supply will be an order of magnitude more scarce than Bitcoin when fully-diluted.
|
|
|
|
Rather than infrequent "halvings" every 4 years, we believe ORE's mission would be better served by reducing emissions at a more gradual 10% per year. This would provide a faster, smoother, and scarcer distribution curve than Bitcoin.
|
|
|
|
We believe these changes strike an ideal balance:
|
|
- Reduces FDV to address sticker shock of buyers
|
|
- Introduces a deflationary curve that decays faster than Bitcoin
|
|
- Caps the supply an order of magnitude more scarce than Bitcoin
|
|
- Provides ~30 years of mining runway for onboarding and liquidity incentives
|
|
|
|
If passed, we will implement these changes and migrate the mainnet mining program. This would represent a major step forward in ORE's hardening process and bring us one step closer towards freezing the contract for good.
