This research uses an agent-based model of the $REGEM ecosystem to test how issuance and scarcity parameters shape ecological outcomes. Heterogeneous agents—project developers, verifiers, buyers, market makers, and stewards—interact through issuance, verification, trading, and retirement of eco certificates. We systematically vary policy levers such as mint rate and caps, bonding curve parameters, time-based decay or demurrage, staking or lockup requirements, burn mechanics, and fee structures. Key outcome metrics include total issued versus retired certificates, retirement rate and lag, issuance-to-retirement ratio, market liquidity, and volatility. By running scenario sweeps and sensitivity analyses, the study identifies which parameter combinations most reliably increase timely retirements of eco credits relative to issuance, indicating stronger ecological impact.

Key Question: “For each $REGEN spent by the network, what activity generates the highest marginal ecological + economic benefit?” // which network activities, if subsidized, create the strongest ecological + economic outcomes?
- Rewards for eco assets / activities / outcomes
- Collaterize eco projects finance / insure eco outcomes (derisk the project)
- Liquidity enhanced by $REGEN for eco assets (when you preselling or whatever)
Additionally: If people need cash to spend for the project, if we use $REGEN for collateral – there would be dumping. What is the benefit for the person investing or is doing projects. Compare with other competitors.
