Gnuxaris everyone! We are currently under review for Featured App status. In parallel, we are finalizing our incentives system that will reward real and sustainable user activity on the bridge and wallet. A big thank you to @Cashen_cc for their solution that allowed us to lock the 5M $CC in an efficient and fast way. This lets us continue making improvements to our product. The next few weeks are going to be important, stay close.

Every active contract on Canton incurs a holding fee. The holding fee is charged to contract signatories based on the size of the contract and how long it exists on the network. Larger contracts and longer-lived contracts pay more. Holding fees are the burn side of Canton’s burn-and-mint equilibrium. As network usage grows, more CC is burned through holding fees. New CC is minted through emissions and app rewards. The balance between the two is what creates long-term economic stability. The design incentivizes efficiency. Applications that archive contracts when they are no longer needed reduce their holding fee burden. Applications that leave unnecessary state on the network pay for it. Token stewardship by design, not by intervention.
