# Token Economics

NEXON's current economics: two asset roles, XO staking settled every 12 hours, a fuel wallet that only fills, burn on withdrawal, and a 0.1 → 1.0 USDT sale.

> NEXON is the ecosystem. XO carries value. EXON drives circulation.

This part sets out NEXON's current economic mechanism (finalised 10 September 2026, confirmed line by line on 11 September) and maps the narrative positioning — XO as **Value Anchor**, EXON as **Circulation Engine** — onto every number in it.

## Read each asset on three levels <a href="#read-each-asset-on-three-levels" id="read-each-asset-on-three-levels"></a>

| Level                             | XO                                                                                                                        | EXON                                                                                                                                                                                               |

| **Narrative**                     | Value Anchor: staking, participation, governance and long-term value                                                      | Circulation Engine: connecting the exchange, payment, exchange, fees and consumption                                                                                                               |
| **Current mechanism**             | Staking Principal Token; static rewards, referral rewards and leadership bonuses are all paid in XO; trades freely on NEX | Core Value Token; the private sale at 0.1 USDT is the only way to acquire it, listing at 1.0 USDT; sell only, never buy; 28% of every deposit buys EXON into the fuel wallet, burned on withdrawal |
| **Opening with each entry point** | Governance rules and wider ecosystem rights (Roadmap)                                                                     | Trading, payment and exchange, connected as each of the five entry points goes live (Roadmap)                                                                                                      |

The narrative says what each asset **carries for the ecosystem**; the mechanism says how it **runs today**. Say both.

## One account, two operating layers <a href="#one-account-two-operating-layers" id="one-account-two-operating-layers"></a>

The **NEX exchange** is the spot layer: XO trades freely, EXON lists sell orders only with no buy orders, and the daily release is displayed from listing day. The **Staking Platform** handles XO staking, settlement every 12 hours, term bonuses, referral rewards, leadership bonuses and reward withdrawal. Both share one account system and one back office — open one account, move between the two.

## How a deposit splits <a href="#how-a-deposit-splits" id="how-a-deposit-splits"></a>

Every staking deposit `P` is split in two the moment the order opens, automatically:

```
Fuel  = 0.28 × P   → buys EXON at 1 USDT each → fuel wallet (burn only)
Stake = the rest   → swapped into XO → staked, settled every 12 hours
```

{% hint style="success" %}
**The fuel wallet only ever fills.** Nothing in it can be transferred out or traded; its EXON has one destination — burned when rewards are withdrawn. The more is staked, the more is bought; the more is withdrawn, the more is burned.
{% endhint %}

## The economic lifecycle <a href="#the-economic-lifecycle" id="the-economic-lifecycle"></a>

**Staking.** XO staking settles every 12 hours at 0.1% – 1.0% per settlement, at 08:00 and 20:00 Beijing time; 10,000 USDT staked earns 20 – 200 USDT a day. Terms of 30 / 90 / 180 / 360 / 540 days carry bonuses of base / +10% / +20% / +30% / +50%, set by term alone. Day 31 is the exit window of the 30-day term — principal plus rewards, no penalty; miss it and the order renews 90 → 180 → 360 → 540 days.

**Withdrawal.** Rewards land in XO and can be withdrawn at any time, through one of three settlement speeds: immediate with a 30% burn, 30-day with 20%, 60-day with 10%. What burns is the equivalent EXON in the fuel wallet, gone from circulation for good.

**Private sale and release.** EXON supply is 1 billion; the private sale offers only 200 million at 0.1 USDT, in three tiers of 1,000 / 5,000 / 10,000 USDT and 11,500 allocations, each paired with an XO stake at 3:1. Listing is at 1.0 USDT, followed by 1,095 days of daily release — one payout every 12 hours, 2,190 in total.

**Dynamic rewards.** Referral rewards reach 20 generations and 76% in total, calculated on each downline's daily static output; leadership bonuses V1 – V12 are paid on the level differential, and V10 – V12 share a global pool of 3% of XO deposits. All are paid in XO, settled in the same cycle as static rewards, and burn on withdrawal in the same way.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://nexon-3.gitbook.io/nexon-docs/part-v-economics/05-tokenomics.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
