💼 EGT’s Business Model

💼 EGT’s Business Model

EGT isn’t just a governance token — it’s a critical piece in a real, revenue-generating system. This section explains how EGT fits into the EURG protocol’s value engine, and how it captures, distributes, and multiplies value.

🔁 Protocol Value Loop

At the heart of the EURG system is a self-reinforcing business model driven by real-world use and digital liquidity.

🔄 The Flywheel:

  1. Users mint EURG using stablecoins or fiat

  2. Protocol charges small minting & redemption fees

  3. Revenue enters EGT dividend pool

  4. EGT holders earn yield → demand rises

  5. More EGT stakers participate in governance

  6. Protocol improves → more integrations and EURG usage

Result: a closed, circular economy where value is created, governed, and shared by the community.

📊 Revenue Streams

The EURG protocol generates real-world revenue through multiple product modules:

Source
Description

Minting Fees

Charged on EURG issuance (e.g. 0.1%)

Redemption Fees

Charged when redeeming EURG or xGOLD/xSILVER

EURG API Licensing

Gold-backed APIs for exchanges, wallets, and fintech apps

Institutional Use

Revenue from B2B integrations, settlement rails, or vault routing

DeFi Integrations

Protocol-owned liquidity, staking-as-a-service, governance tooling

Vault & Audit Services

Tokenized infrastructure provided to third-party token issuers

These revenues flow into the EGT Dividend Pool, creating real-yield demand for the governance token.

🏛 Revenue Allocation Strategy

Protocol revenue is not burned or locked — it is actively redistributed to reward growth and sustain security:

Allocation Target
Percentage
Purpose

EGT Dividend Pool

50%

Quarterly payouts to EGT holders

Ecosystem Growth Fund

25%

Grants, partnerships, integrations

Reserve Vault

15%

Buybacks, insurance, treasury stabilization

Protocol Maintenance

10%

Audits, developer grants, operations

Revenue flows are transparent and governed by DAO vote.

🏗 Example: EURG API Licensing

A fintech exchange integrates EURG as a settlement rail for euro-gold trades. They access our “xGOLD API Brokerage Suite” under a monthly fee contract.

  • They pay €5,000/month → routed to protocol treasury

  • 50% of it enters EGT Dividend Pool

  • Snapshot EGT holders get their share that quarter

Simple. Measurable. Earnable.
