How It Works
Economy
The equity model, Foundation Treasury, token system, and how wealth circulates back to the commons.
Summary
The Foundation takes a minimum 2.5% equity stake in every project. Profits flow back into the Treasury — a sovereign wealth fund that reinvests in new ventures, community initiatives, and member benefits. Three tokens power the system: Passport SBT (governance), UMIFY (rewards), and Alpha Tokens (project equity).
The 2.5% equity model
Every project created inside Oumafy automatically allocates a minimum 2.5% equity (250 basis points) to the Foundation. This is not a fee or a tax — it is shared ownership. The Foundation becomes a stakeholder in every venture the network helps create.
The remaining equity is distributed among project team members based on their contributions. No single member can hold more than 30% equity in any project, ensuring broad distribution.
- Access tier: 2.5%–5% equity — early contributors and supporters.
- Co-Build tier: 5%–15% equity — active builders and core team members.
- Network State tier: 15%–30% equity — deep contributors with sustained commitment.
The Foundation Treasury
The Treasury is the network's sovereign wealth fund. It is fueled by the Foundation's equity stakes in successful projects and by member contributions.
Profits generated from these stakes flow back into the community — funding new projects, social initiatives, infrastructure improvements, and direct member benefits. This creates a self-reinforcing cycle: successful ventures strengthen the commons, and a stronger commons helps the next generation of ventures succeed.
Three tokens
Oumafy uses three distinct tokens, each serving a different purpose in the network economy.
- Passport SBT (Soulbound Token) — non-transferable governance token. One person, one vote. Cannot be bought or sold. Grants democratic participation rights.
- UMIFY — the network's reward currency. Earned through contributions: feedback, voting, project work, community engagement. Can be used for membership fees, goods, services, and network perks. Lifetime UMIFY earned determines your Rank.
- Alpha Tokens (α-tokens) — project-specific equity tokens tracked in basis points. Represent real ownership in individual ventures. The Foundation holds its 2.5%+ stake through Alpha Tokens.
How wealth circulates
The economic loop is designed to be self-sustaining. Members contribute work and earn UMIFY. Projects generate value and distribute equity. The Foundation's stake in every project feeds the Treasury. The Treasury reinvests in new ventures and member benefits.
Revenue from successful projects continuously fuels network expansion, infrastructure improvements, and community-driven initiatives — maintaining a cycle of growth and shared prosperity.
