Utilities
🔹 1. Platform Fee Payments
BoostFi probably charges fees for using its core services (e.g. trading, lending, deployment). Users pay these in $BOOSTFI tokens—either directly or via protocol-native swaps. This mechanism:
Captures revenue for the protocol, potentially used to fund development or distributed back to stakers.
Increases utility of $BOOSTFI tokens by creating ongoing transaction demand.
🔹 2. Staking & Access to Premium Signals
Staking $BOOSTFI plays a dual role:
Earn rewards – Stakers lock tokens and receive passive income (e.g., protocol fees, newly minted tokens).
Unlock premium features – Higher staking tiers may grant early or exclusive access to premium signals—market insights, trading strategies, or algorithmic alerts.
This incentivizes long-term commitment and aligns user interest with the platform’s growth.
🔹 3. Strategy Deployment Fees
BoostFi may allow community-created strategies (like algorithmic trading, auto-invest, portfolio rebalancing). Deploying or operating these strategies likely incurs fees paid in $BOOSTFI:
For developers, this creates a revenue stream, encouraging quality contributions.
For users, it ensures only viable strategies are used.
For the protocol, these fees can be partially burned or fund further ecosystem development.
🔹 4. Governance Voting
Holders of $BOOSTFI can participate in decentralized governance:
Voting power may be boosted by staking or locking tokens.
Governance rights cover protocol upgrades, fee structure adjustments, treasury spending decisions, etc.
Tokens used for voting may be locked temporarily, aligning governance participation with long-term alignment.
