#### To sponsor a community, a partner pays a fee.

50% of this fee is kept in BUSD and the equivalent of 50% is minted to create INTΞGRITY tokens.

{% hint style="info" %}
 This 50% in BUSD + 50% in INTΞGRITY tokens consitute the **redistribution pool.** For more on this, refer to the **Formulas** section below.
{% endhint %}

#### What do contributors do with their earnings?

BUSDs can be exchanged for fiat money and other cryptocurrencies.

During **Phase 1**, INTΞGRITY tokens can’t be exchanged. They will appreciate in value however, and have utility powers.

During **Phase 2** (once listed on DEX/CEX) contributors can exchange their INTΞGRITY tokens and BUSDs for fiat money and other cryptos. They can also keep INTΞGRITY tokens to increase status and unlock additional utility powers.

{% hint style="info" %}
 INTΞGRITY tokens follow a bonding curve, meaning that they increase in value with time. 

\> See the **Token Distribution** section for more details.
{% endhint %}

To create a sustainable ecosystem, earnings are locked for a period of two weeks after having been redistributed. The protocol stakes earnings during this period, and the yields go into the DAO treasury fund.

## Formulas

Calculations are performed once per day at 11:59 pm PCT.

* The **partner's fee** is the total amount paid by the partner.
* A **creator** is someone who creates an original post.
* A **supporter** is someone who likes, comments or shares.

The algorithm splits the redistribution pool according to the number of new views on each post (since the last calculation). 

```markup
## Example for a total redistribution pool of $750:

### Assumptions:
Number of new views for post #1 = 50,000
Number of new views for post #2 = 45,000
Number of new views for post #3 = 40,000
Total number of new views = 135,000

### Proratization:
=> Post #1 will receive 37% of the redistribution pool, i.e. $278
=> Post #2 will receive 33% of the redistribution pool, i.e. $250
=> Post #3 will receive 30% of the redistribution pool i.e. $222
```

Creators earn the largest percentage, but supporters can earn up to 25% of the pool, based on the number of views they have generated. 

```markup
## Example for post #1:
Redistribution = $278
Total number of views = 50,000
=> $0.00556 per view.
=> Supporters earn 25% of price per view, i.e. $0.00139

### Example if supporter A braught 25,000 views
and supporter B braught 5,000 views:
=> Supporter A earns $34.75
=> Supporter B earns $6.95

The remaining redistribution amount goes to the content creator:
=> $278-$34.75-$6.95 = $236.30
```

Allocations are split evenly between BUSD and INTΞGRITY tokens, and transferred to the owners' wallets.

```
In our example for post #1:

Content creator receives 118.15 BUSD + 118.15 INTΞGRITY tokens
Supporter A receives 17.375 BUSD + 17.375 INTΞGRITY tokens
Supporter B receives 3.475 BUSD + 3.475 INTΞGRITY tokens
```
