What Makes ArenaCoins Unique
ArenaCoin Lifecycle
Phase 1: Arena Creation & Bonding
When a new arena launches, it enters the bonding phase:
Arena Launch
Bonding Opens
Community Building
Graduation Criteria
Phase 2: DEX Trading
After successful bonding, ArenaCoins graduate to full market trading:
- Uniswap Pool: ArenaCoin/$B3 trading pair created
- Market Discovery: Open market determines token value
- Liquidity Provision: Bonding funds seed initial liquidity
- Fee Generation: Trading fees support arena economy
Bonding Curve Mechanics
Mathematical Foundation
ArenaCoins use a quadratic bonding curve for fair price discovery:
typescript// Bonding curve pricing formula function calculatePrice(supply: number, bondingConstant: number): number { return (supply / bondingConstant) ** 2; } // Example with $COMBAT arena const bondingConstant = 1000000; // 1M tokens at 1:1 ratio const currentSupply = 250000; // 250k tokens minted const pricePerToken = (250000 / 1000000) ** 2; // = 0.25^2 = 0.0625 $B3 per ArenaCoin
Bonding Benefits
- No pre-sale or insider allocations - Price increases with demand - Early supporters get better prices - Mathematical price discovery
- Always possible to buy/sell - No reliance on market makers - Curve provides instant liquidity - Predictable price impact
- No front-running possible - Large purchases have price impact - Curve naturally deters pumps - Transparent pricing algorithm
Bonding Example
Let's trace an early investor's journey:
- Arena: Combat Simulator launches - Supply: 0 $COMBAT tokens exist - Price: Starting price ≈ 0.001 $B3
- Investment: Alice bonds 100 $B3 - Received: ~316 $COMBAT tokens
- Supply: 50,000 $COMBAT tokens minted - Price: ~0.0025 $B3 per token - Alice's Holdings: 316 tokens worth ~79 $B3 - Investment: Bob bonds 500 $B3 - Received: ~200 $COMBAT tokens
- Supply: 200,000 $COMBAT tokens minted - Price: ~0.04 $B3 per token - Alice's Holdings: 316 tokens worth ~126 $B3 - Community: Active battles and growing user base - Graduation: Arena approaches DEX listing criteria
Revenue Sharing Model
ArenaCoins generate value through multiple revenue streams:
Primary Revenue Sources

10% of all betting pools - Collected from every battle - Proportional to betting volume - Accumulates in arena treasury - Used for token buybacks Example: 10,000 HYPES betting pool = 1,000 HYPES to treasury
50% of boost purchases - Real-time revenue from interactive features - Higher engagement = more revenue - Scales with arena popularity - Immediate treasury impact Example: 500 HYPES in boosts = 250 HYPES to treasury
66% of DEX trading fees (post-graduation) - Continuous revenue from token trading - Grows with token adoption - Market-driven revenue scaling - Long-term sustainability Example: 1% trading fee, 66% to treasury
