Geoquest’s global ecosystem: a real world cryptocurrency business case.

Geoquest’s Token Ecosystem: Revolutionising Geological Carbon Storage

Welcome to the Token Ecosystem section of the Geoquest Token (GEO) platform. This section provides an overview of the dynamic and interconnected components that make up the Geoquest ecosystem.

Collateral Pools

Each GEO token is backed by geological carbon storage assets, ensuring stability and value reflective of the underlying collateral. The collateral pools are divided into several categories to support the ecosystem:
- Exchange Pool: Provides a basis for exchange-traded derivatives.
- Market Maker Pools: Ensure liquidity and facilitate price discovery by balancing buy and sell orders.
- Buffer Reserve Pool: Collects fees to buffer volatility and fund ecosystem needs, enhancing stability and resilience.

Governance

Token holders actively participate in decision-making processes, allowing for a decentralized and transparent governance model. Key governance activities include:
- Voting on Collateral Acceptance: Deciding which types of geological carbon storage can be used as collateral.
- Setting Risk Parameters: Determining debt ceilings and stability fees to manage risk and ensure diversification.
- Modifying Staking Parameters: Adjusting staking incentives to align with ecosystem goals.
- Role Assignments: Defining and assigning roles such as Oracles, Market Makers, and Originators.

Transactions

GEO tokens can be used for various types of transactions, functioning like any cryptocurrency within the ecosystem:
- Buying and Selling: Users can trade GEO tokens on the Exchange.
- Payments: GEO tokens can be used as a medium of exchange for goods and services.
- Exchanging: GEO tokens can be exchanged for other cryptocurrencies or fiat currencies.

Staking

Staking GEO tokens incentivizes community participation, helping to enhance the functionality and stability of the ecosystem. Staking mechanisms include:
- Rewards for Participation: Stakers earn rewards for contributing to the network's security and functionality.
- Balancing Order Books: Staking can help manage liquidity by releasing project collateral to Market Maker or Exchange pools when needed.
- Improving Ecosystem Health: Community actions, such as voting and governance participation, are rewarded through staking incentives.

Roles

The ecosystem relies on various roles to maintain and grow, each playing a crucial part in ensuring the system's integrity and efficiency:
- Oracles: Track and report on collateral pricing, providing accurate and timely data to the ecosystem.
- Market Makers: Ensure liquidity by balancing buy and sell orders, facilitating price discovery, and maintaining market stability.
- Originators: Secure and manage the collateral assets, ensuring that all geological carbon storage submitted meets the necessary standards and requirements.
