Protocol ArchitectureBuilt to expand. Designed to balance.
Three interconnected forces continuously adjust GTC Protocol's supply while keeping every newly minted unit backed by the protocol.
Mint
Deposit approved collateral and mint GTC Protocol against it. New supply enters circulation only when it is fully backed.
Burn
Redeem or burn GTC Protocol to retire supply and reclaim collateral. Every burn is irreversible and on-chain.
Grow
Mint GTC Protocol to earn protocol yield from treasury strategies and fees. The reserve compounds in your favor.
Backed
New supply enters only against approved collateral.
Elastic
Supply contracts when GTC Protocol is redeemed or burned.
Compounding
Treasury strategies and fees feed value back into the system.
Mint expands the system. Burn contracts it.
Every deposit creates new GTC Protocol supply through a defined allocation. Every redemption removes GTC Protocol from circulation, creating a continuous supply mechanism.
