# Tokenomics Mission Statement

Bluetail is a decentralized, automated protocol with minimal need for operational manpower and no inherent profit motive. Nor can the Apecoin DAO take in profits in its current state. _This is an advantage_. A focus on sustainability rather than profitability serves the [charitable tenets of ApeDAO](../bluetail/apedao-rationale) and increases the pressure on legacy record companies to improve creator relations, serving [ApeDAO rationale](../bluetail/apedao-rationale).

A focus on sustainability means _Bluetail may outcompete legacy music institutions_ by providing creators

* better streaming payment rates than those given by legacy companies;
* transparent recording agreements that return IP to creators in real time; and
* the ability to rehypothecate profits back into Bluetail without fear of predatory cross-collateralization tactics.

A focus on sustainability does _not_ mean foregoing profitable activity. If possible, we recommend profits roll over into the staking pools/farms that fund Bluetail to counter the diminishing returns of said pools over time.&#x20;

We fully expect yields to consistently fall over time in crypto as the system becomes more efficient and closely regulated. The secret to sustainable income over time is funding pool rehypothecation and consistently growing income from IP activities.
