ClassicBirds NFT Whitepaper

1. Introduction

ClassicBirds revolutionizes NFT economics by merging dynamic pricing, self-funding burn rewards, and marketplace royalties into a single sustainable ecosystem. Unlike static collections, ClassicBirds incentivizes holders to reduce supply voluntarily, driving long-term value appreciation.

Problem Solved: Most NFTs lose utility post-mint; ClassicBirds creates perpetual demand through:

• Burn-to-Earn: Destroy NFTs to claim ETC from a communal pool.

• Auto-Refilling Rewards: 3% of secondary sales feed the burn pool.

• Decentralized Governance: Zero admin control over locked funds.

2. Core Mechanics

2.1 Dynamic Minting

• Supply: Hard-capped at 500 NFTs.

• Pricing: Starts at 0.10 ETC, increases by 0.10 ETC every 20 mints.

• Revenue Split:

  • 70% → Burn reward pool.

  • 30% → Treasury (development, marketing).

2.2 Burn-to-Earn

• Reward Formula:

  Copy

  Reward = (Total Burn Pool ETC) / (Remaining NFTs)  

• Last NFT Bonus: Final burner claims 100% of remaining ETC.

2.3 Sustainability Loop

1. Minting funds the burn pool.

2. Marketplace fees (3% of sales) replenish rewards.

3. Burns reduce supply, increasing scarcity.
