Token Growth Model
A core element of our vision is the design of $Ti to directly reflect the growth of the Titanium ecosystem. As the platform's AUM increases, the value of $Ti scales accordingly.
We have meticulously mapped out the launch of $Ti to create outsized profits compared to industry standards for both airdrop participants and early $Ti holders.
Let's explain:
Industry Context
Most DeFi token launches today follow a similar pattern:
Raise capital from VCs.
Launch the protocol with aggressive marketing and an airdrop campaign to attract TVL.
Launch the token once TVL reaches hundreds of millions or more.
Distribute a large portion of supply to VCs and airdrop participants under vesting schedules.
This model disproportionately benefits VCs while offering limited upside to public investors who believe in the project from the start.
Our Approach
$Ti will launch without inflated valuations or significant insider allocations.
At token launch and prior, Titanium’s AUM across all products will be below $10 million.
This means airdrop allocations per person will be extremely large due to the limited amount of participants to compete with in the campaign.
It ALSO means that we allow for heavy upside potential for token holders as our AUM continually grows from under $10,000,000.
The Goal
Rather than waiting for maximum TVL before launching, $Ti is introduced early. This ensures that value accrual is shared with the community from the start and grows in parallel with the ecosystem.
Our model is designed to restore the asymmetric upside for public holders, reminiscent of the earlier years of crypto.
