GIGA Machine

The perpetual buyback mechanism, built into the system.

The GIGA Machine is the protocol’s maximally aligned veGIGA position: 190M GIGA, 19% of supply, locked at genesis. It is designed to permanently align the protocol with GIGA holders.

How It Works

Like all veGIGA positions, the Machine earns protocol revenue. Those rewards buy GIGA and lock it into the position, so every fee the protocol earns becomes standing demand for GIGA and a larger permanently locked stake. The buyback never stops: it runs as long as the protocol generates revenue.

The Machine operates under the same rules as every other veGIGA holder, but it has size, and its sole goal is to accumulate as much GIGA as possible.

Effects

• Protocol revenue continuously strengthens the largest veGIGA position.
• GIGA accumulated by the Machine is locked, reducing circulating supply over time.
• As the Machine grows, its share of protocol revenue and ecosystem influence grows with it.

The result is a self-reinforcing flywheel between protocol growth and GIGA alignment.
