Avalanche Foundation Sets Out Its Economic Research Agenda With Clear Streams and Priorities

TL;DR

• The Avalanche Foundation’s agenda aims to measure ecosystem output, capture protocol-level value, and distribute it in ways that strengthen AVAX economics and security.
• Research will examine protocol revenue, validator incentives, staking sustainability, burns, revenue sharing, and capital allocation as issuance declines over time across the network.
• Findings will appear through the public Economics of Blockchain series, with the agenda remaining open to revision as evidence develops and Avalanche evolves further.

The Avalanche Foundation has published an economic research agenda designed to explain how activity across the network can translate into value for AVAX. The framework starts from a deceptively simple sequence: measure what the ecosystem creates, capture a portion at the protocol level, and distribute it to reinforce the token and network. The central problem is that economic activity does not automatically strengthen the asset securing the blockchain. Applications, users, and builders may generate substantial output, yet without deliberate capture mechanisms, that value can pass through Avalanche without improving validator incentives, security, or long-term sustainability.
