🪙$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 $WEST 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 $WEST 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 $WEST Bank. The $WEST 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 $WEST 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 $WEST, 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 Wante3d 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 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 of Web2/Web3 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!
