Details

Space

Flexible Staking for Exposure Adjustment and Fan Rewards

Space is a social media platform on BeatSwap where creators and fans interact directly in real time. Creators stake $BTX to influence Space exposure ranking. Fans engaging with Spaces are rewarded with $BTX, supported by allocations for Staking and Community Rewards.

RWA Launcher

Compensation for Rights Transfer and Purchase Payment

RWA Launcher is BeatSwap’s decentralized platform that enables creators to tokenize and launch their IP-Rights as Real-World Assets (RWA) tokens. Creators are rewarded with $BTX when transferring IP-Rights to BeatSwap. Participants purchase RWA tokens using $BTX, supported by allocations for IP-Rights Acquisition.

BeatSwap

Swap Fee Currency, LP Royalty and Incentive Distribution

$BTX is used for RWA swaps. $BTX collected as swap fees are distributed to LPs. Additionally, LPs receive proportional shares of $BTX as royalties from unstaked RWA tokens. Initial liquidity operations are supported by allocations for RWA Pairing Liquidity.

PoR System

Bonus Incentive Rewards

Bonus $BTX is distributed to active RWA stakers participating in the PoR system as rewards for participation. Long-term rewards are supported by allocations for PoR (Proof of Rights) Rewards.

Licensing to Earn

Licensing-Based Reward Distribution

Licensing to Earn is the protocol’s usage-driven distribution model that ties real IP licensing behavior to $BTX rewards. At its core, the IP Licensing Index (IPL) is an on-chain ICRC token minted to quantify licensing contributions. RWA contributors are rewarded with $BTX based on their IP Licensing Index (IPL) share, supported by allocations for Licensing-to-Earn.

Licensing to Earn

Licensing to Earn is the protocol’s usage-driven distribution model that ties real IP licensing behavior to $BTX rewards. At its core, the IP Licensing Index (IPL) is an on-chain ICRC token minted to quantify licensing contributions. IPL is transfer-restricted, non-redeemable, and designed solely for utility-index purposes. There is no total issuance cap, as IPL is minted infinitely based on verified contributions. Monthly snapshots are taken on the 15th at 00:00 UTC to record each participant’s balance for proportional $BTX distribution.

  • UnlockReward: Minted when a user pays to unlock an IP asset.

  • RoyaltyReward: Minted when a rights holder receives royalty income from IP usage.

  • StreamReward: Minted when a user generates a verifiable usage event such as a stream or play.

Each participant’s IPL balance is captured in a monthly snapshot. The protocol calculates My Share as the percentage of total IPL supply held by that participant. $BTX rewards are distributed using the formula:

Reward Formula = Licensing-to-Earn Monthly Allocation × My Share

This ensures that creators, contributors, and rights holders are rewarded proportionally to their actual licensing contributions, creating a transparent and sustainable incentive system.


Key Points

  • $BTX underpins BeatSwap’s financial ecosystem — powering payments, liquidity incentives, and community rewards.

  • LPs not only earn swap fees but also share in the royalties generated by RWA tokens that are not staked into PoR.

  • Each service layer distinctly utilizes $BTX, ensuring clear separation of utility without redundancy.

  • The design balances participation incentives across creators, fans, investors, and liquidity providers.
