Revenue Streams

Revenue is generated from trading fees and loan-origination fees. All fees are governable.

​
Revenue Distribution

Revenue from Samsara markets is distributed to the following:
  • Directly raising the navToken floor price (Starts at 25%)
  • prANA stakers (Starts at 25%)
  • Buying ANA and borrowing against it to fund platform operations (50%)
The exact split between floor and prANA is adjustable via governance. All components are designed to reinforce the protocol’s structure and create lasting alignment between participants and the system.

​
The Nirvana Flywheel

ANA is the original Assured Value Asset, backed by a USDC reserve. It has all of the same benefits as navTokens (rising floor price, self-repaying non-liquidatable loans, etc.), but it also has a key advantage. Staking ANA is the only way to earn prANA. prANA is Nirvana’s governance token, which earns a share of protocol revenue from any Samsara market. ANA unifies Nirvana, acting as the value-capture token for the whole ecosystem and the source of all governance power. All platform revenue generated by Samsara will be used to buy ANA.
