Tokenomics
NOX token economics and distribution
TokenMatrix (NOX)
NOX is the native utility token that powers the entire NodeMatrix ecosystem. Unlike pure speculative tokens, NOX has deep utility—it's required for workflow execution, platform access, staking rewards, and governance participation. As the platform grows and more users automate their blockchain operations, demand for NOX increases naturally.

Platform Revenue
Users pay for NodeMatrix automation and MatrixDocs subscriptions. All payments flow through the NOX token economy.
- • MatrixDocs Pro/Enterprise subscriptions
- • NodeMatrix workflow execution fees
- • API calls and premium features
- • Custom integration fees
Automatic Burns
A portion of all platform revenue is used to buy back and permanently burn NOX tokens, reducing supply.
- • 2% of every transaction burned
- • Monthly revenue buybacks
- • Deflationary pressure over time
- • Transparent on-chain burns
Staking Rewards
Stakers earn a share of platform revenue, creating strong incentives to hold and stake NOX long-term.
- • 40% of tax goes to staking pool
- • Daily reward distributions
- • Compounding APY options
- • Lock bonuses for longer stakes
Value Accrual
As usage grows and supply shrinks, each NOX token represents a larger share of the ecosystem.
- • More users = more revenue
- • More revenue = more burns
- • Fewer tokens = higher value per token
- • Cycle repeats and compounds
Revenue Share Model
NOX stakers directly benefit from ecosystem growth

How Revenue Share Works
- 1. Users pay for MatrixDocs/NodeMatrix services
- 2. 40% of revenue goes to the staking reward pool
- 3. Rewards distributed proportionally based on stake
- 4. Claim anytime or auto-compound for higher APY

Why NOX is Essential
NOX isn't just a token - it's the lifeblood of our entire ecosystem
True Utility, Not Speculation
Payment Infrastructure
All premium services across the ecosystem are priced and payable in NOX. While we accept other currencies, NOX payments receive priority processing and discounts. This creates constant buy pressure as users acquire NOX for services.
Access Gating
Premium features, advanced AI models, and enterprise capabilities require NOX staking. The more you stake, the more you unlock. This isn't arbitrary - staking demonstrates commitment and reduces spam while rewarding long-term users.
Governance Power
NOX holders direct the future of the ecosystem. Vote on new features, integrations, fee structures, and treasury allocations. Major protocol changes require community approval through NOX-weighted voting.
Network Security
Staked NOX secures our decentralized infrastructure. Node operators must stake NOX as collateral, ensuring honest behavior. Malicious actors lose their stake, while honest operators earn additional rewards.
Ecosystem Alignment
Partners, integrators, and power users hold NOX to align incentives. When the ecosystem grows, NOX value grows. This creates a virtuous cycle where everyone benefits from contributing to platform success.

Fee Structure
5% Buy & Sell Tax
Every transaction (buy/sell) on Uniswap incurs a 5% tax. This sustainable fee model funds ecosystem growth, rewards long-term holders, and ensures continuous value appreciation through strategic buybacks.

Contract Overview
Core Contract Mechanics
Trading Control System
Trading is disabled by default at deployment for security. The contract prevents all transfers until explicitly enabled by the owner, protecting against early sniping and ensuring fair launch conditions.
// Trading protection check
require(tradingEnabled || isExcludedFromFees[from] || isExcludedFromFees[to], "Trading disabled");
- • Owner, contract, and LP pair are always exempt
- • One-way switch - once enabled, cannot be disabled
- • Enables via
enableTrading()function
Dynamic Tax System
Configurable buy and sell taxes (currently 5% each, max 10%) applied automatically during transfers. Taxes are collected in NOX and held in the contract until swap threshold is reached.
5%
Buy Tax (Current)
5%
Sell Tax (Current)
- • Buy tax applies when acquiring from LP pair
- • Sell tax applies when selling to LP pair
- • Owner can adjust via
setTaxRates()(max 10%) - • Excluded wallets bypass all tax logic
Auto-Swap & ETH Redistribution
When accumulated NOX in the contract reaches the swap threshold (500,000 NOX), it automatically swaps to ETH via Uniswap V2 and distributes to designated wallets. Anti-recursion protection prevents reentrancy attacks.
Swap Threshold:
500,000 NOX (0.05% of supply)
50%
Treasury
30%
Dev1
20%
Dev2
- • Triggered automatically during sells
- • Uses
inSwapmodifier to prevent loops - • ETH sent directly to configured wallets
- • Distribution shares adjustable via
setDistributionShares()
Uniswap V2 Integration
The contract automatically creates a Uniswap V2 NOX/WETH pair during deployment. This pair address is immutable and used to identify buy/sell transactions for tax application.
- • Auto-created at deployment
- • Pair address stored as immutable variable
- • Used for buy/sell detection
- • Excluded from fees by default

Security Considerations
Owner Privileges
The contract owner has significant control including tax adjustment, wallet changes, and trading enablement. This is standard for taxed tokens but users should verify:
- • Ownership can be renounced via
renounceOwnership() - • Tax rates capped at 10% maximum (hardcoded protection)
- • No minting function - supply is fixed at 1 billion
- • Cannot disable trading once enabled
Anti-Rug Protections
- • Fixed total supply - no mint function exists
- • LP pair is immutable after creation
- • Tax rate changes capped at 10% maximum
- • Transparent on-chain ETH distribution
- • Ownership renouncement permanently removes admin control
Recommended Post-Launch Actions
- 1. Enable trading via
enableTrading() - 2. Add initial liquidity to Uniswap V2 pair
- 3. Lock liquidity tokens for security
- 4. Consider multi-sig for treasury wallets
- 5. Renounce ownership to decentralize control
