{% hint style="success" %}
**Burn Mechanism**\
Periodically, Econody may conduct token buybacks from market-generated revenues and permanently "burn" tokens to reduce total circulating supply, further enhancing scarcity and upward price pressure.

**Token Scarcity through Staking**\
Staked ECONO tokens are temporarily removed from circulating supply. With clear staking periods (e.g., 1 month to 12 months), these tokens reduce short-term availability, enhancing token scarcity and price stability.

**Token Scarcity through Collateralization**\
Tokens locked as collateral for loans or lending similarly decrease liquid token supply, reinforcing scarcity, limiting sell pressure, and adding positive upward price momentum.

## Staking
