The BUNDL token economy is designed as a self-reinforcing flywheel that creates sustainable value for all participants. This page explains the mechanics in detail.
Fair Launch – BUNDL launches on Pump.fun with no presale, no VCs, and no insider allocations. The flywheel kicks in once the token is trading.

The Core Insight

Most tokens fail because they lack sustainable demand drivers. BUNDL succeeds by creating multiple interlocking demand mechanisms:
  1. Utility Demand – Users buy BUNDL for fee discounts
  2. Yield Demand – Investors stake BUNDL for revenue share
  3. Supply Reduction – Buybacks and burns reduce circulating supply
  4. Team Alignment – Treasury funds development

Revenue Generation

Primary Revenue: Swap Fees

Every swap through bundl generates revenue:
Swap: 100 SOL → USDC

Fee: 0.1% = 0.1 SOL
Destination: Protocol Treasury
Conservative estimates:
UsersAvg. Volume/UserMonthly VolumeMonthly Revenue
1,000$10,000$10M$10,000
10,000$10,000$100M$100,000
50,000$10,000$500M$500,000
At scale, swap fees alone generate significant revenue.

Secondary Revenue: Pro Licenses

Each Pro license sale adds 1.11 SOL to the treasury:
Pro Sales/MonthRevenue
100111 SOL (~$15K)
500555 SOL (~$77K)
1,0001,110 SOL (~$155K)

Tertiary Revenue: Premium Features

Future premium features (Jito integration, API access, etc.) add additional revenue streams.

Revenue Distribution

All protocol revenue is split according to governance-set parameters:

Stakers Pool (40%)

  • Distributed weekly to all BUNDL stakers
  • Paid in SOL (the native revenue)
  • Proportional to stake amount and duration
  • Creates yield demand for BUNDL

Buyback & Burn (30%)

  • Automatically buys BUNDL from the market
  • Purchased BUNDL is permanently burned
  • Reduces circulating supply over time
  • Creates price support and deflationary pressure

Team Treasury (30%)

  • Funds ongoing development
  • Marketing and growth
  • Operational expenses
  • Ensures sustainable team incentives

The Flywheel in Action

Phase 1: Usage Growth

More users discover bundl's unique features


More swaps, more Pro licenses sold


More protocol revenue generated
Drivers:
  • Gasless Sweep (no competitor has this)
  • Multi-wallet management demand
  • Word of mouth and referrals

Phase 2: Value Distribution

Protocol revenue splits into:

     ┌──────┴──────┐
     ▼             ▼
  Stakers      Buybacks
   earn         reduce
   SOL          supply
Effects:
  • Stakers earn real yield
  • Buybacks create buy pressure
  • Supply decreases over time

Phase 3: Token Appreciation

Buy pressure + reduced supply


BUNDL price increases


Fee discounts become more valuable


More users want to hold BUNDL
Reinforcement:
  • Higher prices attract more stakers
  • More stakers = more locked supply
  • More locked = less selling pressure

Phase 4: Flywheel Acceleration

More BUNDL demand


Higher BUNDL price


Same buyback $ = fewer tokens bought


But each burn is more impactful


Creates scarcity premium
At scale, the flywheel becomes self-sustaining.

Buyback Mechanics

How Buybacks Work

  1. Accumulation: 30% of revenue accumulates in buyback fund
  2. Execution: Weekly automated market buys
  3. Burning: Purchased BUNDL sent to burn address
  4. Verification: All burns visible on-chain

Why Buyback & Burn?

MechanismEffect
BuyCreates demand, supports price
BurnReduces supply permanently
CombinedDeflationary pressure over time

Burn Transparency

All burns are sent to a public burn address:

Anyone can verify:
  • Burn transaction history
  • Total tokens burned
  • Effective circulating supply

Staking Mechanics

Lock Tiers

Longer locks = higher rewards:
Lock PeriodReward Multiplier
Flexible1.0x
30 days1.25x
90 days1.5x
180 days1.75x
365 days2.0x

Staking Example

Scenario:
  • Monthly revenue: 1,000 SOL
  • Staker pool (40%): 400 SOL
  • Total staked: 100M BUNDL
  • Your stake: 1M BUNDL (1% of pool)
Your rewards:
  • Flexible lock: 4 SOL/month
  • 365-day lock: 8 SOL/month (2x multiplier)

Compound Option

Auto-compound option:
  1. Rewards received in SOL
  2. SOL automatically swaps to BUNDL
  3. BUNDL added to your stake
  4. Larger stake = larger future rewards

Treasury Management

Allocation Principles

Reserve10%

Transparency

  • Monthly treasury reports published
  • Major expenditures require governance approval
  • Reserve fund for sustainability during downturns

Sustainability Analysis

Revenue Sustainability

The protocol only distributes earned revenue, not emissions:
✅ Stakers earn from REAL revenue (swap fees, Pro sales)
❌ Not inflationary token emissions
This means:
  • No death spiral from selling rewards
  • Rewards scale with usage (not down only)
  • Sustainable long-term

Supply Sustainability

With buyback and burns:
Year 1: 1B supply
Year 2: 950M supply (50M burned)
Year 3: 890M supply (60M burned)
...
Over time, supply decreases while demand increases.

Key Takeaways

  1. Real Revenue – All value comes from actual protocol usage
  2. Sustainable Yields – Stakers earn from revenue, not emissions
  3. Deflationary – Buyback & burn reduces supply over time
  4. Aligned Incentives – Team, users, and holders all benefit from growth
  5. Multiple Demand Drivers – Utility + yield + governance
