All revenue generated by the DAO will be distributed automatically and transparently through smart contracts according to the following immutable framework:

* **50% to Treasury:** Half of all annual revenue is directed to the community treasury, creating a sustainable engine for passive income and funding future initiatives.
* **20% to Token Holders:** Distributed annually via a tiered reward system, directly sharing success with the community and incentivizing long-term participation.
* **10% for Strategic Buybacks:** This portion is used to execute periodic buybacks, systematically removing tokens from circulation. This increased scarcity is designed to support the token's long-term value.
* **20% for Operations & Development:** Allocated to council members to fund ongoing operations, development, and strategic growth, ensuring the DAO's continued evolution.

***This entire process is fully decentralized and governed autonomously by its smart contracts.***
