🔄Fuego x Humo Dynamics

Where there is Humo, there is Fuego!

Key Concepts and Relationship Between FUEGO and HUMO:

1. FUEGO: The native token of the Fuego DAO, it is used as a Deflationary store of value and the central asset of the multi-asset ecosystem. FUEGO is designed to be backed by a basket of pairing assets that provide significant and growing liquidity value, but unlike other "rebase" tokens, it is not pegged to any specific price. Its value is determined by the protocol’s growth, compounding pool revenue and market dynamics. It also is the governance token for ownship of the Fuego DAO Treasury asset.

2. HUMO: Fuego DAO introduces a unique concept called "Dual Token Deflationary Rebase". The EmberCore Contract's static 12 hour burn intervals and the HUMO weighted pairing (Treasury LP with FUEGO) is the central key to the stability and ongoing growth of the project. This unique concept deflates HUMO faster than FUEGO and on a consistent timeline to provide a less volatile floor for the project's liquidity and to continuously accumulate Treasury reserves for future growth. This mechanism provides the backing for FUEGO and prepares the liquidity and Treasury for the long term growth of tokenized real assets, onchain.

3. Multi-Asset Treasury: As a basket of assets, the Treasury must remain diversified as managed by the Decentralized Autonomous Organization, or DAO. The ownership of the Treasury, and its long term acquisition and income structure, incentivizes owners of FUEGO to hold tokens for long-term value and income accrual. Holding the token as it continues to deflate at 1% per Interval, reduces the circulating supply of FUEGO, theoretically supports its value, and increases the long term yield for all holders over time.

4. Decentralized Reserve Treasury: Fuego DAO aims to create a "Reserve Treasury" that can be used as the backing and foundation for an ever growing pool of tokenized assets and to help maintain a service based process for partners who wish to tokenize assets in this model. I theory, the treasury liquidity will bring their project immediate liquidity. The protocol design focuses on building a long-term, self-sustaining, decentralized system, unlike traditional centralized protocols.

5. Governance: Fuego DAO is governed by FUEGO token holders. Informal voting will occur prior to the token achieving a 50% burn. Once 50% burn is achieved, SnapShot (or another similar protocol) will be used for ongoing voting by the token holders. This will allow the owners to vote on DAO or protocol upgrades, changes to the monetary policy and relationship between Fuego and Humo, the Treasury make up, and other important decisions. This governance model is intended to ensure that the project remains decentralized and community-driven forever.

6. "Debase" Contract: Unlike OHM or AMPL, and certainly unlike failed protocols like LUNA, etc... there is no contract needed that could potentially be gamed or exploited. The "contract" is the consistent deflationary mechanism of the two tokens (with HUMO being delfated slightly faster). This creates constant volume from arbitraged trades, additional burns from the FUEGO/HUMO pair, and constant upward pressure on price over time - always backed by a growing treasury asset.

Key Features:

• Decentralized Treasury: Fuego DAO’s treasury is stocked with assets that are used to create fee revenue over time. This fee revenue will be used in the future to incentivize holders with increasing long-term asset valuations and provide an income to its holders on a monthly interval.

• Protocol-Owned Liquidity (POL): Instead of relying on liquidity providers from Centralized Exchanges (CEXs), FUEGO DAO owns its own liquidity, reducing dependence on external market forces. The POL was created in both a FUEGO/ETH pair and a HUMO/ETH pair. These bases of liquidity are transferred to the Fuego Treasury over time through the EmberCore contracts, all for the benefit of the holders.

• Rebasing: The Rebase "DE-BASE" mechanism is a constant deflation of the supply of both tokens over time to adjust to market conditions and asset valuations. As more Real World Assets (RWAs) or onchain assets are tokenized into the treasury, or they are acquired and held, the more valuable FUEGO and HUMO will become.

• In the future, as the model is proven to be stable, we will work to build or tie into dApps around the use of FUEGO, HUMO and its RWA asset base tokens to drive further revenue back to holders of FUEGO.

Criticisms and Risks:

• Complexity: The mechanisms behind FUEGO can be difficult for some users to fully understand, especially around its EmberCore liquidity transfers to the Treasury (DAO). It is also difficult for potential users to grasp the dynamics of Deflationary tokenomics" and the long-term effects to valuation since most DeFi projects to this point have been emissions based.

• Volatility: While Fuego seeks to create a consistent and even rise in Treasury value over time, Fuego's value can still experience significant volatility due to market dynamics and investor sentiment.

Conclusion:

FUEGO is part of a broader movement within the DeFi ecosystem to explore Decentralized and Autonomous financial platforms, removing VCs, banks, lenders, etc. It also explores how deflationary stores of value can be superior to worldwide inflationary fiat systems. The idea of a decentralized, protocol-owned Treasury is still evolving, and only time will tell whether Fuego's approach will succeed in the long term.
