# Tokenomics
**Let's introduce the $BEAST Token:**
* The $BEAST Token puts the community first via the governance system
* Provides access to the DropBeast ecosystem via a stake-to-access system
**What's the objective?**
* Access the product to capture airdrops
* Access the ecosystem to minimise efforts & maximise opportunities for returns for deployed liquidity
* Align the dynamics in the airdrop market to the $BEAST Token via the governance protocol > Implement airdrop opportunities as voted on by the community.
**What's the outcome?**
* Capture airdrops on mass scale, automatically.
* Access airdrop guides to maximise your returns
* Add features & value to the product
**The DropBeast Tokenomics Cycle:**
* As new opportunities are found, proposals are created
* Proposals are voted on within the DropBeast Community
* Proposals that pass are implemented
* Users then farm the airdrops
* Airdrops are then captured
* The cycle repeats
**DropBeast aligns to the Airdrop Market Cycle:**
* Users of the product will stake tokens to access the product, and commit tokens to a vote to add value to the product that they are using
* Investors know that purchasing opportunities will exist between airdrop cycles, as the product value is realised upon capturing the airdrop
**How does this cycle scale?**
* Airdrops are cyclic in nature, and we've shaped DropBeast to align with the market dynamics
* Every cycle, more tokens are staked
* Every cycle, more tokens are consumed
* Every cycle, less tokens are available
