Layer 1 Inflation: Where Should it Go?
summary
Initia launches mainnet and TGE on Binance, does a 5% airdrop with ~95% claimed, and brings ~10 rollups live in week one; 16 rollups on the stack have raised $28.5M vs Initia’s $25M. The stack uses Cosmos SDK, EVM/MUVM/COSMA VMs, IBC/LayerZero and Celestia DA. Layer‑1 inflation funds an enshrined liquidity DEX where LP tokens are staked to bootstrap security, and an Initia VIP gauge votes system distributes epoch rewards to users based on on‑chain metrics and layer‑2 balances.
