Emissions

$BEAM Emissions overview

$BEAM emissions began at the launch of the ve(3,3) portion of Beam and are a foundational component of the ve(3,3) ecosystem. Emissions are the mechanism by which new $BEAM tokens enter into circulation, the recipients being Beam liquidity providers. What percentage of total emissions going to each pool is determined by the veBEAM stakeholders.

The main stakeholders of a ve(3,3) DEX, including veBEAM holders, LPs, users, and protocols, are all aligned and incentivized by the ve(3,3) dynamics that determine $BEAM emissions.

veBEAM holders — are incentivized to vote either for the most productive pools (because the greater the volume, the greater the amount of trading fees produced as a result) or the ones being bribed by protocols seeking to bootstrap their liquidity. This allows these protocols to create their own flywheel, if the token generates strong volume.

Liquidity Providers (LPs) — are incentivized with $BEAM token emissions for providing their liquidity, driving real yield-based value on Beam and deepening protocol liquidity for traders.

Traders — benefit from the low slippage thanks to the liquidity provided, in concert with the latest and greatest battle-tested concentrated liquidity tech from Algebra.

Protocols — have access to a cooperation-oriented liquidity layer. They benefit from capital efficient trading conditions for their tokens, and they can incentivize their liquidity via bribes offered to veBEAM holders to bootstrap their native liquidity or earn profit.
