DHO Pricing Model

Purpose

Hypha product development teams have been heads down refining and improving our products. Each team has created outstanding roadmaps, reliable testing procedures, and efficient source control and deployment processes. This document is looking at how we can define revenue streams by coming up with a pricing model that is aligned with the regenerative renaissance, is not not driven by profit motives, while at the same time paying for our infrastructure costs and rewarding all participants fairly.

Assumptions

1 We want to generate sustainable revenue streams
2 We want to make it part of a circular economy
3 The customer wants to pay for features s/he needs
4 The RR (regen renaissance) wants to support it
5 The VP (value proposition) is clearly defined

Models

1 Free (genesis)
2 Freemium (default)
3 Premium (service)

Types

  1. Freemium approach;
  2. SBP - subscription-based pricing (also on top of a Freemium model, typical SaaS model);
  3. UBP - usage-based pricing (also on top of a Freemium model, typical on-demand model);
  4. VBP - value-based pricing (let the customer decide, see deck below from CAWW);
  5. PPS - paid premium services that are only sold to premium users (mostly providers);
  6. PBU - price by users;

(via Max):

3.1 pay per proposal;
3.2 pay per claim;
3.3 pay per feature;
3.4 pay per redemption (free for EOS);

Process

1 select new DHO (e.g. via impact metrics)
2 set pricing model (and other params)
3 propose and launch DHO from parent DHO (hand over protocol)

Tokenomics

1 What tokens to use
2 Value of tokens (price point)
3 Cost of services (infrastructure/capital, labor/roles)
4 Financial/knowledge/value/credit flows
5 Treasury/Store of value

Our Model (TBD)

  • How much "basic usage" can we afford?
  • Where is the threshold to UBP?
  • Are accelerators using VBP?
  • Is there revenue sharing between Hypha and accelerators? (blue and green boxes)
