# Token Utility

## Overview <a href="#overview" id="overview"></a>

The R**etex Token (RTX)** is integral to the Retex GPU ecosystem, serving as the primary medium for transactions and value exchange. Designed with simplicity and sustainability in mind, the RTX token model ensures:

* **User Incentives**: Immediate benefits for users who transact using RTX.
* **Deflationary Mechanics**: A decreasing token supply over time, enhancing token value.
*   **Platform Sustainability**: A revenue model that supports ongoing development and operations\
    \




## Core Principles <a href="#core-principles" id="core-principles"></a>

1. **10% Discount on GPU Rentals with RTX:**

Users who opt to pay for GPU rentals using RTX receive an immediate **10% discount** on their transaction.

* **No staking or holding requirements**.
* **Instant application** at the point of payment.
* **Encourages adoption** and circulation of RTX within the ecosystem.\

| Payment Method | Rental Cost | Discount |      |
| -------------- | ----------- | -------- | ---- |
| SOL/USDC       | $100        | 0%       | $100 |
| RTX            | $100        | 10%      | $90  |

2. **2–5% Burn on Each RTX Transaction:**

To promote a deflationary token economy, a **2–5% burn** is applied to every transaction made with RTX.

* **Reduces total supply** over time.
* **Increases scarcity**, potentially enhancing token value.
* **Burn rate** is deducted from the transaction amount, not the platform's revenue.

**Example**:

* A user pays **$90** in RTX after the 10% discount.
* **2–5%** of the $90 (i.e., $1.80 to $4.50) is burned.
*   The platform receives the remaining amount.\

    3\. **100% Revenue Retention by the Platform:**

    Retex retains **100% of the revenue** from transactions, ensuring:

    * **Financial sustainability** for platform operations and growth.
    * **No revenue sharing** or dilution through staking rewards.
    *   **Simplified economics**, focusing on real utility and value.\
