TELx Production and Consumption Activities: Introduction

The following section first describes the factors that encompass all aspects of the material, social, and institutional environment which set the context for the various actors and user groups that harvest TEL from TELx. We then provide a an overview of TEL harvesting activities and benefits, and propose evaluative criteria that could be used by to determine which outcomes the community would deem satisfactory.

    Evaluative Criteria

    General Performance Indicators: Liquidity, staked liquidity, actors, volume, fees, buy-backs
    Sustainability: Can the quantity of TEL issuance units available to be harvested by Liquidity Miners according to TELx Harvesting Rules sustain at current levels over time?
    Participation: How many liquidity miners have staked TELx liquidity?
    Proportional Equivalence: Are TELx harvesting rules suitable to TELx Network conditions? Are the benefits obtained by TELx miners proportional to the amount of inputs required in the form of labor, material, or money?
