# $WILD Token
## **Things are about to get $WILD!**
As active users in the DeFi space for over a decade, we understand the pain points of the blockchain industry well. This is why we created a first of it's kind economic model that rewards those who invest time, resources, and energy into the ecosystem, while also offering a platform where people can engage without too much complexity or risk of loss.
Do you remember your first entry into cryptocurrency?
Was it through the big daddy, BTC? Or perhaps some degen coin promising 1,000,000% APY that rugged you overnight?
Either way, investing in a volatile 24/7 market can be overwhelming and even scary for many.
At Posse Studios, our goal has always been to simplify crypto onboarding via a GameFi experience. Now, imagine doing this with a tokenized system that provides returns over time with a token value that never decreases. If your first experience in crypto was with a zero-loss coin, would that make you more curious, feel safer, and more confident?
We think so! That’s why we’re incredibly excited to introduce our **YEEHAW**, up-only **$WILD** and **$POSSE** ecosystem!
Our aim is to offer a **one-stop shop**, a holistic ecosystem with a simple onboarding process that gradually unlocks all the fantastic aspects of decentralized finance (DeFi) through educational articles and step-by-step learning. Users will have access to investing, trading, staking, and development opportunities, all centered around the **$WILD** token—our seamless and pain-free core.
**$WILD** is a **multi-chain**, **multi-purpose**, and **yield-generating** token, backed by 100% collateral. With an innovative mint-on-purchase, burn-on-sell mechanism, the value of **$WILD** only goes up over time.\
That’s right, partner! It's only green... only up. **100% collateralized**. Now you can sleep easy!
The longer you stay, the more you earn—it's as simple as that!
### **$WILD Tokenomics: Collateral and Growth Over Time**
$WILD builds on the concept of **collateralized tokenomics**, designed to provide **stress-free, mid-to-long-term holding** with a return on investment that increases with time spent in the market. The contract's exchange mechanism ensures that the value of $WILD is always increasing, regardless of whether it's a buy or sell action.
Unlike typical token launches, which often involve the immediate minting of tokens, followed by a presale and the creation of a liquidity pool (LP) where trading starts and more tokens are released over time, **$WILD follows a unique mint-and-burn model**.
**$WILD** is minted only on a **BUY** action and burned on a **SELL** action, ensuring that the market cap of $WILD never exceeds the available liquidity in reserve.
### **Sustaining Development Over Time: Taxation Mechanism**
To support long-term project development, a **taxation mechanism** is implemented, ensuring that a portion of each transaction is filtered back into the project in the following ways:
* **8.5% BUY Tax**
* **8.5% SELL Tax**
For each **buy** or **sell** action:
* **1%** of the transaction is allocated to the **Team/Development Wallet**.
* **2.5%** goes to the **$POSSE Bank**.
* **5%** goes to the **$WILD Treasury** (Collateral Liquidity).
### **Future Tax Adjustments**
The contract will be locked and renounced from inception - meaning no adjustments to tax amounts will be allowed by the team in the future!
### **Revenue Allocation**
The proposed split for future initiatives is as follows:
* **$POSSE Bank:** 35%
* **$WILD Treasury:** 30%
* **Team Wallet:** 30%
* **Crate Holders Airdrop:** 5%
### **DAO Governance and Voting Power**
Both the **$WILD Treasury** (Collateral Liquidity) and the **$POSSE Bank** form the foundation of the DAO, with governance and future decisions directed by $WILD $POSSE holders and **Genesis Crate** holders.\
Voting power is distributed as follows:
* **1 point** per $WILD token owned.
* **1 point** per **Good Crate**.
* **1.5 points** per **Bad Crate**.
* **3.5 points** per **Ugly Crate**.
### **$POSSE Bank and Game Events**
The **$POSSE Bank** holds the total funds available for in-game events. For example, an event like **"Defeat the Bandit Camp"** could run for 30 days with a **$500 USDC** reward pool, funded by the $POSSE Bank. The $POSSE Bank is built from contributions via $WILD trade taxes, $USDC injections from future initiatives, partnerships, and e-sports events. This fund is reserved specifically for gaming rewards.
**Sample Event Structure:**
* **Event:** Defeat Bandit Camp (30-day event)
* **Entry Cost:** 150 $POSSE
* **Reward Pool:** $500 USDC or $WILD
* **Objective:** Ladder ranking based on the number of bandits killed.
The goal is to funnel taxes toward the **$POSSE Bank**, with future earnings injected into both the **$WILD Treasury** and the **$POSSE Bank** to ensure a constant token value increase and sustained rewards.
Initially, we may limit the amount of **$WILD** available through P2E events to ensure several months of rewards are on hand. The proposed schedule is to release 1/6th of the **$POSSE Bank** every 30 days for reward events, alongside team-sponsored and partner-sponsored Esports events.
We will review this process continuously to ensure fair, transparent distribution of rewards and long-term project sustainability. Additionally, sponsored events from external partners may offer participants opportunities to win NFTs or tokens from other projects.
As we grow, we plan to introduce cross-chain vaults, staking contracts, and AI-Fi earning opportunities to ensure continued buy pressure on the **$WILD ecosystem**. We believe our **Tokenomics model** is simple, fair, and focused on positive gains, designed to onboard new users while rewarding long-term holders and participants.
Our initial events will run on a 30-day schedule, with shorter 7- and 14-day events added later. An example earning event would be as follows:
### How is $WILD always collateralized and always growing?
At $WILD's launch, there will be zero tokens in circulation—**no presale, no team allocation, no reserved pot, no VC fund**—just you, me, the community, and believers setting out together to explore the frontiers in search of fame, fortune, and prosperity!
The **starting price of $WILD** will be **$0.50 per $WILD** (to be confirmed). The **maximum $WILD** that can be minted at any given time is **1,000 $WILD**, preventing excessive minting or burning at any one price point. This ensures a smooth transition through value zones.
**Example of a Buy Transaction:**
Let’s say the first $WILD purchase is for 250 $WILD at a cost of $125:
* **8.5% of the transaction is deducted as tax**.
* $114.375 goes to the **$WILD Treasury**, and 225 $WILD are minted by the contract and sent to the purchaser’s wallet.
* **$1.25** goes to the **Team Wallet**.
* **$3.125** goes to the **$POSSE Bank**.
* **$6.25** goes to the **$WILD Treasury**.
* The amount of $WILD in circulation becomes 225, and the $WILD Treasury liquidity stands at **$120.625**.
* $WILD now has a value of **$0.5361** ($115.625 / 225).
As you can see, **the buy action increased the value of $WILD**, even with the tax deduction!
### **What About Selling?**
Let’s break down a sell scenario. Imagine there are **10,000 $WILD** in circulation, and the current price of $WILD is **$1.00**. The $WILD Treasury liquidity pool has **$10,000**.
Now, a user sells **1,000 $WILD** at $1.00 per token:
* **8.5% of the value is deducted as tax**.
* **1,000 $WILD are burned**, removing them from circulation permanently.
* **$915** is sent to the seller's wallet.
* **$10** goes to the **Team Wallet**.
* **$25** goes to the **$POSSE Bank**.
* **$50** goes to the **$WILD Treasury**.
* The circulating supply of $WILD drops to **9,000**, and the $WILD Treasury liquidity now holds **$9,050**.
* The new price of $WILD becomes **$1.0056** ($9,050 / 9,000).
Once again, the **sell action** increased the price of $WILD, even with tax involved!
### **The Unique Growth Model of $WILD**
Every **buy** or **sell** transaction **increases the underlying price of $WILD**! When many tokens are minted or burned at a particular price point, the price moves slowly, which is why there’s a **limit on the number of tokens minted or burned** during any single transaction—to maintain steady, healthy price growth.
As the **Posse ecosystem** grows, **buy pressure** on $WILD will increase due to new users, revenue streams, in-game earning events, and external vaults. Even without heavy trading volume, you don't lose value! This makes $WILD a **secure investment strategy**.
### **The Long-Term Strategy and Benefits**
In the extreme case where everyone exits the project and sells their tokens, don’t worry! As the **last token holder**, you hit the jackpot—you walk away with the entire **$WILD Treasury liquidity** (minus tax, of course). Imagine holding and being rewarded for your loyalty!
That said, the idea of investing is also about taking some **profits along the way**—whether it’s to buy shoes for your kids or take a holiday. The $WILD ecosystem encourages this. When you take profits, you’re not “dumping” on other holders because **every sale increases the value of the remaining tokens** due to the burn mechanics.
### **Understanding the Tax**
Yes, there is a **17% tax** on buy and sell actions, which means the price of $WILD needs to increase by approximately 17% before you start seeing profits. However, this is true of all taxable tokens and $WILD’s unique mechanism allows this threshold to be **quickly surpassed**. Over the **mid-to-long term**, it’s impossible to lose value if you hold.
If you buy and immediately sell, you’ll be 15% down—this is the **$WILD $POSSE**, and that’s okay! But the real strategy is to **lay your hat**, enjoy the ecosystem, and watch your $WILD grow as you engage with the games and community. Over time, your $WILD will appreciate, and you’ll likely earn even more $WILD during your stay.
### **Profit and Growth Strategy**
The earlier you enter, the more gains you’ll make over time. Think of it as **hopping on the train**—enjoy the journey, and when you’ve reached your destination, hop off and enjoy the profit! With constant **buy and sell pressure** from the ecosystem, we ensure a **continuous upward trajectory** for $WILD.
For instance, let’s say a **2D PFP drop** generates **$10,000**, which is allocated to the $WILD Treasury. At that time, the current price of $WILD is $1.00, and there are **10,000 tokens in circulation**, meaning the $WILD bank is collateralized at **$10,000**. If we inject another $10,000 into the treasury, the value of $WILD **doubles to $2.00**. A sell wall might form, but remember, **as tokens are sold and burned, the value of the remaining tokens continues to increase**!
### **Soneium**
We are launching on **Soneium**, and the first **$WILD Treasury** will be established here—our home base. Since $WILD purchases are made with **$USDC**, and its collateral is ultimately **$USDC**, we have the immediate flexibility to go cross-chain. **$USDC** is easily bridgeable and is also proposed to be the gas token on **Soneium**.
### **Why Collateralize $WILD with $USDC?**
Given the current macroeconomic and market conditions, we chose to collateralize **$WILD** in **$USDC** to avoid exposure to the volatility of native tokens like **$SOL**, **$MATIC**, **$BNB,** **$ETH**, or **BTC**. By using a stablecoin, we ensure greater stability and control. This decision also safeguards new users from potential volatility during onboarding. While in the future, the **$WILD Treasury** could be partially or fully collateralized with **Layer 1 (L1)** coins, **$USDC** is the safest option for now.
One of the key advantages of our **DAO system** is that the future direction of project funds will ultimately be decided by you—the loyal community.
### **Future Ideas: Chain-Specific and Common Guarantee Funds**
In the future, we could establish **Chain-Specific** and **Common Guarantee Funds**:
* **Chain-Specific Funds**: These funds could vary based on the number of active players and economic activity on each chain. For example, chains with higher activity may require larger funds to manage potential fluctuations.
* **Common Guarantee Fund (Cross-Chain Arbitrage)**: This fund could be proportional to the total number of players across all chains. Each **Chain-Specific Fund** would contribute a portion of its reserves to the **Common Fund**, ensuring that it's adequately capitalized. This would also align each chain’s economic stability with the broader system.
### **Launch Details**
Because of **$WILD’s** unique and innovative tokenomics, we won’t have any **pre-sale allocation**. Instead, it will be a **fair launch** on our own website. A **Liquidity Pair (LP)** will be available on the **DEX** as a farm, where users can deposit **$WILD** and **$USDC** to earn rewards in the form of **$WILD** from **DEX transaction fees**.
### **Genesis Crate Holders Benefit**
To reward our early investors and believers in the **Wanted** project, we are excited to reveal the hidden benefits of holding large amounts of **GENESIS Crates**. **Genesis Crate holders** will have **exclusive access to mint $WILD** in the early phases of the launch—before the public release and trading.
### **Tiered Access to $WILD**
Minting **$WILD** will follow a **tiered system** based on the number of crates held. Each transaction will be limited to **1,000 $WILD**, with a set amount of **$WILD** available for each tier. This ensures that differences between tiers are minimal, and each tier remains accessible as the **$WILD mint** progresses.
### **Collateralized Token Model**
We believe the **collateralized token model** is the way all start-up companies in **DeFi** should begin. This approach secures project funds for both the community and investors, ensuring that investments are safeguarded. It contrasts with the typical **IDO/ICO model**, where tokens are sold in a pre-sale and then minted over time or immediately, creating instant sell pressure and exposing the token to potential investor manipulation. We've seen many projects launch, gain momentum, and then slowly lose value. This happens because no new liquidity enters the pools to support the price of inflating tokens.
For example, if your liquidity pool has a value of **$10,000**, and tokens inflate by **2% per day**, without new liquidity, the token's value will decrease by **2% per day**.
With the collateralized model we are proposing, which includes **mint on purchase** and **burn on sell** mechanisms, growth may be slower, but the upward trajectory is consistent. Any economic model depends on volume through usage, but by avoiding inflationary tokenomics, even with low volume, the price remains stable.
### **$POSSE Earning Mechanism**
The **$POSSE earning tool** in our GameFi ecosystem, detailed in the [$POSSE Token](/undefined-3/tokenomics/usdposse-token.md) section, is the primary driver of volume. Users are incentivized to "cash in" their **$POSSE earnings** from gaming for **$WILD rewards**, creating natural sell pressure on **$WILD** and keeping the volume flowing. Meanwhile, buy pressure will be generated through various events like merchandise sales, **NFT drops**, **AI Avatars**, platform-based earning vaults, and external revenue streams.
### **Going Public: Listing on a DEX/CEX**
In the future, the community may decide to go public and list **$WILD** on a **DEX** or **CEX**. In this case, the collateralized **$WILD Treasury** would serve as the pre-sale. By removing the tax model, let’s say the **treasury pool** contains **40,000 $WILD** with a value of **$80,000**. The liquidity pre-sale pool for **$WILD** on launch would be **40,000 $WILD** to **$80,000 USDC** at **$2 per token**.
If we utilized a **Launchpad** with a price of **$2.50 per $WILD** and aimed to raise **$250,000**, we could then trade **$WILD** publicly on any **DEX**.
## **Whooo doggie... That was a lot to digest!**
We’ve poured our years engineering, academic, and professional experience into this system. Rather than simply copying or forking existing projects, we’ve used the wisdom gained through trial and error to address the real-world challenges facing today’s DeFi systems.
While nothing is perfect, we believe this is the first step toward a new world where…
The future is WILD!
