Mechanisms

The Great Race — A learn-to-earn where participants complete daily “quests” in exchange for Sealed Pega Tokens. These tokens can be used to mint a PegaPal. See it live.

PegaPal Auctions — English auctions for PegaPals. Meant for those looking to enter the Pegasus ecosystem immediately. Auction revenue will make up the initial treasury. Upon settling, the PegaPal will be immediately stakeable. See it live.

PegaPal Staking — Stake Pegapals to earn $PEGA tokens. Higher-level PegaPals increase your share of staking APY. In Phase One revenue for backing staking APY will be from PegaPal auctions. Once the Rate Perpetual launches transaction fees will back new token emissions. See it live.

Peganomics— Pegasus’s tokenomics model seeks to pioneer a new incentive design that rewards hodlers proportionally to their conviction in the protocol. Whitepaper.

The Interest Rate Perpetual: A perp that tracks the value of an underlying interest rate. For the Aave USDC market, if the current annualized borrow rate is 3.6%, the perp price will reflect 0.036 USDC. If the annualized borrow rate goes up to 6%, the oracle price will rise to 0.06 USDC. Traders can take long and short positions on this perp with leverage. Liquidity for the perp will come from protocol treasuries which in essence is liquidity mining, but Pegasus is the provider of its own liquidity since all the perp revenue will then be sent directly to the treasury to fund more staking APY.
