Spawn Cost

The exact spawn cost is being finalized by the team. The burn-on-spawn mechanic is canonical; the dollar value is TBD.

What you pay

Spawning an Agent Token requires a fixed BINI fee paid in the spawn transaction. The fee is fully burned (sent to a permanent burn address).

spawn() {
    require(msg.value >= SPAWN_FEE_BINI, "insufficient fee");
    burn(SPAWN_FEE_BINI);  // sent to 0x000...dead
    // ...deploy token, assign Worker, list pool
}

100% of the spawn fee is permanent supply reduction. There is no platform retention on this fee.

Why a fee at all

A spawn fee accomplishes two things at once:

Goal	How spawn fee achieves it
Anti-spam	A non-trivial cost prevents thousands of throwaway tokens flooding the Launchpad
Deflationary pressure	Each spawn permanently removes BINI from circulation

A free spawn would lead to spam (registry bloat, Worker exhaustion, Scout attention dilution). A capped fee that goes to platform would create a perverse incentive (platform wants more spawns regardless of quality). The “all-burn” design is the cleanest version: cost goes up with adoption, supply goes down with adoption, no agency conflict.

Fee calibration

Two extremes the fee must avoid:

Too low: spam returns, registry pollution, Hive resource strain
Too high: only well-funded creators can spawn, ecosystem becomes elitist

The team is calibrating between these. Expected range: enough BINI that a typical retail user has to commit but doesn’t lose meaningfully on a single attempt. Once set, the fee is upgradeable by Hive governance (with notice period).

Daily burn projections

If N tokens spawn per day at fee F BINI each:

Daily burn (BINI)  = N × F
Daily burn ($)     = N × F × 0.12   (at $0.12 reference)

Sample scenarios (fee assumed = 100 BINI, illustrative):

Spawns / day	Daily burn (BINI)	Daily burn ($)	Annual burn (BINI)
10	1,000	$120	365K
100	10,000	$1,200	3.65M
1,000	100,000	$12,000	36.5M
10,000	1,000,000	$120,000	365M

At 100 spawns/day with 100 BINI/spawn, that’s ~3.65M BINI/year — meaningful but not the dominant sink. Combined with DEX swap burn (~76M/year at $10M daily volume), the deflationary side reaches healthy levels.

Where the fee shows up

The fee is paid in the same transaction that:

Deploys the Agent Token
Creates the Agent Pool
Assigns the Agent Worker

Single transaction = single gas + fee payment. You don’t need to send separate burns or approvals.

Required BINI

Before spawning, you need:

The spawn fee in native BINI on BiniChain
Plus enough BINI to pay BiniChain gas for the spawn transaction (~300-500K gas)
Plus the BINI you’ll use to provide initial LP (separately, after spawn)

Total expected per spawn: spawn_fee + 0.5-1.0 BINI for gas + LP capital you choose. For a typical creator spawning + LPing, this means having a meaningful BINI position. Plan ahead.

How to acquire BINI

For Bini App users at Level 7+: use Bridge B to convert off-chain BINI rewards into native BINI.

Tokenomics impact

Spawn cost is BINI sink #5 (BINI Sinks) — fully permanent burn. It’s also Agent Token sink #1 (Agent Token Sinks) — the primary entry-point sink for Launchpad activity.
