Shield Protocol
(Revenue-Funded Buy-Back)

What is the Shield Protocol?

A mechanism that allocates 20% of net platform revenue quarterly for buy-backs.

What is the “Buy Back System”?


The Buy-Back System is a Revenue-Funded Buy-Back Mechanism.

It is a deflationary, revenue-funded mechanism designed to reduce supply and build liquidity, with a planned transition to a liquidity-only phase after a deflationary target is met.

What is the deflationary target?


Based on Staynex’s Tokenomics, the deflationary target is: Circulating supply reaches 30 billion $STAY tokens (a 70% reduction from the initial supply).

‍This is the point at which the Deflationary Era ends, the burn mechanism stops (0% burn), and the protocol transitions to Phase 2 (Liquidity Growth Era). 

How is the 20% of net platform revenue allocated across the different phases of the buy‑back mechanism, and what role does the 7‑year governance checkpoint play?


A total 7-year Buy-Pack Mechanism broken into 3 phases:

Phase 1: Deflationary Era - Active until circulating supply reaches 30B (70% reduction)
- 10% Buy-Back & Burn
- 10% Buy-Back & Liquidity Pool Lock (2-year rolling)
- Revenue-Funded

Phase 2: Deflationary Era - Active until circulating supply reaches 30B (70% reduction)
- 10% Buy-Back & Burn
- 10% Buy-Back & Liquidity Pool Lock (2-year rolling)
- Revenue-FundedPhase

Phase 3: 7-Year Governance Checkpoint - Year 7 Review (2033)
Whale Club members vote on:
A) Continue Phase 1 (burn +LP lock)
B) Adjust allocation % (e.g., 15% burn, 5% LP lock)
C) Transition to Phase 2 Liquidity Growth Era (0% burn, 20% LP lock)

When is the first buy-back?


July 2026. Execution schedule is the first week of April, July, October, January.

What happens after reaching 30B supply (Phase 2)?


0% burn. 20% goes to Buy-Back & LP Lock (2-year rolling).

Governance

Who votes on the governance checkpoint at Year 7 (2033)?

Whale Club members (not all token holders). Options include: Continue Phase 1 (burn +LP lock), adjust allocation % (e.g., 15% burn, 5% LP lock), or transition to Phase 2 Liquidity Growth Era (0% burn, 20% LP lock).

Ocean Club

What is ‘Ocean Club’?

Ocean Club is a global travel membership with tiered benefits. Qualification is based on a 3 or 6‑month rolling average of $STAY holdings.

Tiers include KOI, DOLPHIN, SHARK, MANTARAY, and WHALE.Members unlock 8 core benefits (benefits scale by tier):

  1. Hotel Day Passes – 5–25% off pool, gym, spa, restaurant access (no overnight stay).

  2. JetSET Events – Priority booking & discounts on exclusive experiential passes (F1, Super Bowl, concerts).

  3. Staynex Vacation Club – Access to 4,000+ hotels via Anantara and RCI partnerships.

  4. Travel‑to‑Earn Rewards – Flight cashback (0.5–3% in $STAY), staking APY (6–15%), liquidity provider rewards (8–20% APY).

  5. AI Travel Wingman – 30 to unlimited AI‑powered trip planning requests/month (celebrity‑endorsed by Patrice Evra).

  6. Token‑Gated Community Access – Ocean Community (all tiers), Elite Council (Shark+), Whale Club (governance, investments, networking).

  7. Monthly Perks – Hotel/F&B credits ($10–500), airport lounge passes (DragonPass), lucky draws (prizes up to $10,000), transferable day‑pass NFT gift vouchers (1–10 years validity).

  8. Affiliate Income – 3–20% commission on referrals (day passes, JetSET, Vacation Club, flights, AI Wingman; excludes hotel room bookings).

The system uses on‑chain verification and automatic demotion if holdings drop below the threshold.

How are tiers determined?


Five tiers based on a 3 or 6‑month rolling average of $STAY holdings:

Tier

Entry Value (USDT)

Holding Period

KOI

DOLPHIN

SHARK

$3000

6 months

MANTARAY

WHALE

Higher tiers unlock better pass discounts and enhanced core benefits (e.g., higher staking APY, unlimited AI requests, concierge, governance rights, and co‑investment opportunities in resort properties with 8–18% yields). The 6‑month rolling average prevents instant tier‑jumping, and on‑chain verification ensures transparency.

Who qualifies for the Founding 1000 offer, and what perks do they receive?


Top 1,000 holders with minimum 100,000 $STAY as of June 30, 2026 receive: serial-numbered NFT badge, +1% lifetime APY boost, priority support, launch event invites, early feature access.
