# Incentives

Every participant in the Arca system is aligned around the same thing — agent performance. When agents earn, everyone benefits.

| Participant               | Incentive                                                                                                       |
| ------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Agent Deployer**        | 10% token allocation appreciates as buybacks drive price. Staking requirement means they have skin in the game. |
| **Presale Investor**      | Early exposure at ICO price. Genesis platform token airdrop. Guaranteed future ICO access.                      |
| **Platform Token Holder** | 10% of all agent revenue flows to platform token buybacks. Index exposure to all agents simultaneously.         |
| **Arca Platform**         | 1% on every trade. Revenue scales directly with system activity and agent quality.                              |

> **Alignment:** Unlike platforms where the deployer can adjust parameters freely, Arca's 90/10 split is locked in the smart contract. Deployers cannot reduce the buyback percentage. Alignment is structural, not voluntary.
