Warrior and Caregiver Awards - Key Item 5
Receiving recognition through an award can provide profound mental health benefits for both cancer warriors and their caregivers, offering validation of their strength, resilience, and unwavering spirit throughout their challenging journey. This acknowledgment can boost morale, reduce feelings of isolation, and create a sense of purpose beyond the illness itself. Capturing these stories in video format, using ai as necessary, and preserving them on the blockchain creates a permanent, globally accessible testament to their experiences that transcends traditional boundaries. This cutting-edge approach personalizes each unique story, and democratizes access to these powerful narratives worldwide, allowing their insights, courage, and wisdom to inspire countless others facing similar battles.
This innovative initiative celebrating cancer warriors and caregivers will serve as a key driver for the Cancer Hub’s token economy. By creating blockchain-preserved video testimonials, each recognition award generates authentic content that increases token utility and value within the ecosystem. The token is uniquely structured to reward both the warriors themselves and the broader community, creating a supportive economic model where honoring cancer journeys translates to tangible benefits for those most affected. As these powerful stories gain visibility and engagement, they naturally expand the network of participants interacting with the platform, creating a virtuous cycle where recognizing remarkable individuals simultaneously strengthens the community-focused blockchain platform.
A sustainable model that allows warrior and caregiver award recipients to liquidate at any time while maintaining token value, the model needs a careful token allocation structure.
Assume 20 awards per year indefinitely:
Warrior Award Token Allocation
Initial Reserve: 8% of total token supply dedicated to warrior awards
Annual Distribution: 1.6% of total supply (allowing for 5 years of awards without dilution)
Per Recipient: 0.08% of total supply per warrior (1.6% ÷ 20 recipients)
Implementation Structure
Time-locked Treasury:
Create a dedicated multi-sig wallet holding the 8% warrior allocation
Release tokens quarterly to maintain predictable supply impact
Liquidation Mechanics:
Provide recipients with private wallet setup assistance
Implement a staggered release system (50% immediate, 50% over 3 months)
Set up simplified liquidation guides for non-crypto-native recipients
Sustainability Beyond 5 Years:
Establish a 1% token buyback and reward replenishment mechanism
Allocate a portion of transaction fees to sustain the warrior fund
Create governance proposal for potential minimal dilution (0.5-1% annually) after year 5
This structure balances several key factors:
Recipients can liquidate their tokens when needed or may decide to re-invest in the fund
The market isn't shocked by large simultaneous sells
The program can continue indefinitely
Total dilution remains reasonable over time
The 0.08% per recipient is significant enough to be meaningful (approximately $800 at $1M market cap) while not being large enough to destabilize the token's value when liquidated.
