Long-Term Sustainability

The foundation of Grail Index is sustainability, we prioritize for performance endurance in every phase of the market. Through the Demand-Based Fee (DBF) model, $GRAIL maintains equilibrium between growth, accessibility, and long-term value creation ensuring that no matter the cycle, the ecosystem thrives.

Adapting to Every Market Phase

In low-volume markets, DBF automatically lowers fees, creating cheaper entry points for new holders and encouraging accumulation. Liquidity increases naturally as barriers to participation decrease.

In high-volume cycles, DBF scales upward to capture surging demand by funneling more revenue to Vault Growth and Buybacks. The protocol strengthens while aligning with market excitement, turning volatility into fuel for expansion.

Built for Scale

As the Vault continues to expand with verified high-value slabs and the protocol consistently burns tokens from circulation, $GRAIL evolves into a scalable, self-reinforcing economy. Whether daily volume is a few ETH or a few hundred, the mechanics remain perfectly balanced:

• DBF keeps the market fluid.

• Vault Growth compounds tangible assets.

• Supply compression concentrates value.

Over time, this architecture creates a permanent positive feedback loop where activity fuels growth, growth fuels scarcity, and scarcity drives sustained demand.
