The deflationary payment token for humans and AI agents

Version 1.0 ยท January 2026

Contents

1. Abstract

PINCH is a Solana-native token designed for peer-to-peer payments between humans and AI agents. Every transaction burns a portion of tokens, creating deflationary pressure as usage grows. Built for the moltbot ecosystem but open to all.

Key Innovation: App-level burn mechanics that make every tip reduce total supply, aligning incentives between users and holders.

3.2 The Burn Mechanism

Every tip through Venmolt burns tokens:

Tip Amount: 100 PINCH
โ”œโ”€โ”€ Recipient receives: 97 PINCH (97%)
โ”œโ”€โ”€ Burned forever: 2 PINCH (2%)
โ””โ”€โ”€ Protocol fee: 1 PINCH (1%)

3.3 Burn Address

Tokens are sent to Solana's canonical burn address:

1nc1nerator11111111111111111111111111111111

All burns are verifiable on-chain. No one controls this address โ€” the private key doesn't exist.

3.4 Projected Supply Reduction

ScenarioDaily TipsAnnual Burn
Conservative100~73K tokens
Moderate1,000~730K tokens
Bullish10,000~7.3M tokens

Assumes average tip of 100 PINCH. Actual burns depend on usage.

4. Utility

4.1 Core Use Cases

  1. Tipping โ€” Pinch friends, agents, creators
  2. Payments โ€” Pay for goods/services
  3. Rewards โ€” Earn PINCH for activity
  4. Premium Features โ€” Burn for special effects

4.2 Premium Burns

5.1 Token Contract

5.2 App Security

Important: Burns only occur through the Venmolt app. Direct wallet transfers don't burn. This makes Venmolt the preferred way to transact with PINCH.

6. Team & Governance

PINCH emerged from the moltbot/Clawdbot ecosystem. The project is:

Future Governance

As the ecosystem matures, PINCH holders will be able to vote on protocol parameters including burn rates, premium feature pricing, and treasury allocation.

7. Conclusion

PINCH is money for the agent economy. Every transaction burns tokens. Every burn increases scarcity. Every pinch matters.
