FAQ & Support
1–10: Core Concept of Juna
1. What is the essence of the Juna project? It's a decentralized economic ecosystem that aims to recreate market economy principles based on blockchain and the Juna token.
2. What is Juna's key objective? To enable users and companies to make deals, develop business, and manage finances using decentralized tools instead of traditional government regulators.
3. What underlies the value of the Juna token? The aggregate value of goods, services, and other benefits that actually circulate within the Juna ecosystem.
4. Why was the traditional public sale abandoned? To avoid speculative "pump and dump" scenarios and ensure organic growth through real economic activities.
5. How does the project understand "market economy"? As a system where pricing and interaction between participants (users, companies, banks) are determined by supply and demand, but in a decentralized format.
6. What is the "sum of goods" in Juna? The consolidated volume of values (goods, services, credit volumes) measured based on on-chain data and user activity.
7. Why is it important that all transactions within Juna use the Juna token? To form a unified payment space, eliminate external speculation, and strengthen the value of the token itself.
8. Is there a fundamental difference from traditional "fiat" systems? Yes. The main "issuer" and "regulator" is a decentralized DAO, not the state, while security is ensured by smart contracts and transparent code.
9. How does Juna plan to replace government institutions (regulators, courts)? With a network of decentralized DAOs, "legal gateways" (escrow, notaries, oracles), and a system of smart contracts for dispute resolution and fact recording.
10. What is the main success criterion for the ecosystem? Organic growth in transaction volumes and the number of actively operating users/companies working with Juna tokens.
11–20: Juna Token and Its Role
11. What is the function of the Juna token as a utility token? Payment for services, fees, company creation, bank engagement, and API usage within the ecosystem. Additionally, Juna automatically pays blockchain network gas fees for users, which is included in the overall payment.
12. What is its governance function? Juna holders participate in Governance DAO voting.
13. What was the initial Juna emission proposed? Approximately 2 billion tokens at launch, distributed across funds (founder, development, reserves, marketing, etc.).
14. Why is Juna not backed by external reserves? The concept is that value comes from internal economic activity and the "sum of goods," not from fiat assets.
15. Why is a "soft" Juna exchange rate needed? To reflect real transactions and not depend on external markets; the rate can be established in p2p markets and within DEX.
16. How is Juna volatility planned to be managed? By using rate management, emission control, and quantitative easing/tightening through the Reserve System and Monetary Policy DAO.
17. Can Juna become "digital gold"? Partially – but the main mission is to be a universal medium of exchange and unit of account, not just a store of value asset.
18. How are the interests of large holders (whales) addressed? Built-in DAO mechanisms and vote distribution are implemented; in case of abuse, the community can redistribute power. But the main constraint is the rational need to act in good faith for the overall economy's interests to ensure stability, preserve processes, and maintain and increase wealth.
19. Will there be staking rewards for holding Juna? Possible, but utility demand within the ecosystem is primary; staking is considered an additional mechanism for token retention.
20. How is the Juna token related to Juna Points? Juna Points are marketing points; they can subsequently be converted into "real" Juna tokens from the marketing fund.
21–30: Institutional Structure (DAOs, Funds, Banks)
21. What key DAOs are planned? Governance DAO, Monetary Policy (Reserve) DAO, Marketing DAO, Launchpad/Development Fund DAO, Arbitration DAO.
22. What is the role of Governance DAO? It establishes general rules, approves global proposals (Protocol-level), and resolves disputes between other DAOs.
23. What is the Reserve System? An analogue of a "central bank" that accumulates tokens for bank lending, exchange rate stabilization, and emission management.
24. Why are commercial banks needed? They provide retail services (loans, deposits, payment instruments) and follow fractional reserve principles (similar to Basel).
25. How are banks controlled? Through the banking system DAO (Monetary Policy DAO), on-chain balance audits, and compliance with reserve requirements.
26. What role does the Development Fund (Launchpad Fund) play? It sponsors innovative projects, infrastructure, and startups that increase the "sum of goods" in the Juna ecosystem.
27. What is the Founder Fund? A large package belonging to the founders. It gives them 50+% of votes at launch during the first years, with gradual vesting.
28. What about the "Team & Advisors Fund"? A separate pool that rewards key developers for their contribution to the ecosystem, with multi-year vesting.
29. Why is "Arbitration DAO" needed? For resolving on-chain disputes, appeals, conflict resolution, and imposing sanctions in cases of fraud.
30. What is the role of Marketing DAO? It manages marketing funds (Incentives), distributes Juna Points, and organizes gaming and promotional campaigns (e.g., "Mars").
31–40: Token Emission and Monetary Policy
31. Why is additional emission needed? So that the money supply grows (5–15% above "sum of goods" growth), stimulating the economy without creating liquidity deficits.
32. What metrics are considered when deciding on emission? Transaction growth, credit-deposit activity, "sum of goods" index (Juna GDP), velocity of circulation, and inflationary signals.
33. Who decides on the emission volume? Monetary Policy DAO through voting, based on "analytical reports" and the general goal: to outpace growth by 5–15%.
34. How often is emission conducted? Usually annually or quarterly. In extreme cases – emergency rounds (crisis governance).
35. How are new tokens distributed after emission? Most often to the Reserve System; by decision of Monetary Policy DAO, funds may be partially directed to the Development Fund and Marketing Fund.
36. What if the economy overheats (too rapid price growth)? The DAO can raise lending rates or reduce emission rates.
37. What if the economy is in decline (deflation)? Emission is increased, rates are lowered, the DAO stimulates lending and increases development funds.
38. How to avoid hyperinflation? By setting an upper emission threshold (no more than 15–20% per year) and responding firmly to sharp price increases within the ecosystem.
39. Where do the interest payments on loans issued by the Reserve System go? Back to the Reserve System (as income).
40. Can emission be "frozen" if the overall situation requires it? Yes, by DAO decision – this is an extreme measure if sharp participant outflow or external shocks lead to liquidity overheating.
41–50: Banking System (Fractional Reserve)
41. How does fractional reserve banking work in Juna? Banks are required to hold a certain percentage of reserves (e.g., 10% in a saturated economy state), lending out the rest while following Basel-like regulations.
42. Why are "banks" needed in a decentralized ecosystem? For retail customer convenience, multi-product financial services, investment and project lending, replenishing firms' working capital liquidity, attracting deposits and issuing loans.
43. How does a bank obtain liquidity from the Reserve System? By pledging part of its assets (or meeting reserve requirements), the bank takes short-term or long-term loans at rates approved by the DAO.
44. How is a bank's financial stability verified? On-chain balance audits (smart contracts), special reporting systems for companies within the ecosystem, disclosure of loan portfolios, obligations, and depositor KYC.
45. What if a bank violates reserve requirements? The bank algorithmically cannot accept deposits or issue loans. To return to normal operations, it must increase its own capital (owners' capital) or reduce existing loan/deposit volumes. If the bank loses capital adequacy, the DAO may introduce supervisory procedures, followed by bankruptcy and license revocation.
46. Can individuals directly borrow from the Reserve? Only through banks.
47. How does deposit insurance work? Insurance coverage is provided, with the amount regulated by the DAO. Funds are disbursed from the Reserve System.
48. How do banks earn profit? From the spread between loan and deposit rates, as well as commissions for financial services.
49. Is there a limit to the credit multiplier? Yes, regulated by reserve ratios and limits approved by the DAO. In case of excess, regulations may be tightened.
50. How do banks influence the overall money supply? Through loan issuance, they "multiply" the money supply in circulation (under fractional reserve conditions).
51–60: Development Fund and Team Development Fund
51. What is the goal of the Development Fund (Launchpad)? To invest in new startups, applications, research, and infrastructure to increase the "sum of goods" and attract users.
52. Who decides whom to grant funding? The Development Fund DAO, reviewing applications, business plans, and voting from Juna holders.
53. What are the conditions for receiving grants? Meeting KPIs (number of users, revenue), implementing Juna tokens into the service. Some tokens may be vested.
54. Can the Launchpad recoup its investments? Usually no, but sometimes it can be an equity scheme: a successful startup returns part of its revenue back to the Fund.
55. Who manages the Team & Advisors Fund? It's a special multisig contract where key developers are represented.
56. What are the team's vesting terms? Depending on how quickly the project's economy grows and the related money supply growth occurs. Expected 3–4 years, with a one-year cliff for the main portion to prevent immediate selling.
57. Should Launchpad expense budgets be published? This is part of the grant application, as well as regular and subsequent reports to the community.
58. What is the interaction between Launchpad and Marketing DAO? Close cooperation. Marketing DAO promotes products created through Launchpad and attracts stakeholders, investors, and accelerators, while Launchpad can allocate grants for marketing tools.
59. Can the development team use the Launchpad? Theoretically yes, but only if they submit a project like any ecosystem participant. The key is transparency and absence of conflicts of interest.
60. What if the Development Fund runs out of tokens? A DAO decision is possible to direct part of the emission in its favor.
61–70: Juna Points and Marketing Mechanisms
61. What are Juna Points? These are marketing points that users receive for useful activities (promotion, education, tests) and can exchange for Juna tokens.
62. Why are Points needed if there's the Juna token itself? To separate "internal" motivation mechanisms from real tokens, without immediately distributing liquid assets and avoiding speculation.
63. How does the exchange of Points for Juna work? Through a special procedure (Claim) from the Marketing fund, considering limits and KYC (when necessary).
64. Can Points be transferred to other users? No (only in exceptional cases), to prevent them from becoming objects of speculation. Points are personal rewards.
65. How are Points protected from manipulation and bots? Verification system (activity checking, reputation), limits on simultaneous applications, anti-fraud mechanisms, rewards for participation in developer projects (MARS).
66. How often can Points be converted? Quarterly, after the launch event.
67. What happens if the Marketing fund runs out? The DAO can decide on additional replenishment from emission.
68. How to motivate users to actively accumulate Points? Offering gamified project introduction programs (MARS), interesting tasks, competitions, educational courses, real benefits (getting tokens without investment).
69. Is there a risk that Points will "devalue"? Exchange restrictions for Juna will not occur.
70. Can a company (startup) issue Points instead of salary? No, there's Juna from Launchpad for that purpose.
71–80: "Mars" Game
71. What is the "Mars" game? A gamified project where users fly to Mars, build a colony, and thus learn about the new, reimagined Juna economy.
72. What is the main goal of the game? To introduce people to decentralized principles (transactions, production, investing, company creation, trading, DAO voting) in a space game format.
73. What are Mars Credits? In-game currency earned by completing quests, tasks, collecting resources, and producing items.
74. How are Mars Credits related to Juna Points? A certain portion of Mars Credits can be converted to Juna Points at an exchange rate, and then Points to Juna tokens.
75. Who owns the "Mars" game? Developed by the Juna development team under the aegis of Marketing DAO to engage new audiences.
76. Won't the game become a "farm" for token manipulation? The game involves several chapters/DLC with complex mechanics and its own sub-economy for Mars Credits, which includes deflationary elements.
77. Can Mars Credits be used outside the game? Only within the game for now. Their main value is subsequent conversion to Juna Points.
78. Is there multiplayer? Yes, players trade with each other, can unite into "crews" through social networks, use different collective strategies for earning Mars Credits and in-game advantages, mimicking real "cooperation" in economics.
79. How is "learning" about Juna stimulated during the game? As the story unfolds, the player becomes familiar with different aspects of Juna's economy through quests, events, and game mechanics.
80. What happens when a player "exits" the game? They retain Mars Credits (convertible to Points) and experience. They can apply all of this in the real Juna ecosystem.
81–90: Anti-Fraud, Reputation and Protection Against Abuse
81. How is the system protected from fraudulent transactions (wash trading, fictitious transactions)? Transactions have friction, the trading pool is expected to be small compared to the "real" economy segment (since the ecosystem is not oriented toward selling tokens for other liquidity). The ecosystem also has a built-in platform-level universal rating system. Additional measures include transaction filtering at the analytics level.
82. Is KYC used? Partially – for legal gateways and banking services. Within the ecosystem it may be optional (depends on risk). Generally, the ecosystem allows users and companies to independently decide whether they need KYC and AML. However, the system provides integration with third-party KYC services.
83. How does the "legal gateway" work? Escrow/notary/oracle that confirms facts (off-chain), records them on-chain, and ensures contract execution. The gateway role is performed by a participant (human or bot) who takes necessary actions online and offline to fulfill their role. Also, one function of the Legal Gateway is coordinating the unlimited legal space of Juna's "zero" jurisdiction with specific jurisdictions where economic transactions occur or to which their participants belong.
84. Can one "file a lawsuit" offline? Yes, if parties agree and provided for it at the transaction stage that gave rise to the claim. But the main logic is conflict resolution through the Legal Gateway, which parties initially trust. In case of disagreement with the Legal Gateway's decision, there is Arbitration DAO, which is the highest authority for dispute resolution within the system.
85. How are violations (collusion, fraud) punished? By reputation reduction, economic sanctions (if available) by decision of Arbitration DAO.
86. What if Arbitration DAO makes a mistake? Appeal and reconsideration mechanisms are provided, taking into account new information.
87. How are reputation systems structured? Each system participant can maintain their own rating of any ecosystem entities - participants, companies, services, goods, content, events, etc. Other participants can connect these ratings for their viewing, thus forming their understanding based on relevant evaluators. There are also global ratings - system reliability rating, system utility rating.
88. Can a high reputation score provide lending privileges? Yes, banks or smart contracts automatically provide better terms with high ratings. In this case, the bank can be a regular retail bank that has representation in the Juna ecosystem and conducts client scoring.
89. How to ensure transparency of auditors and regulators? Public code, multisig, DAO reporting. Regulators themselves can be selected by the community through competitions.
90. Is there a risk of a 51% attack on the system? Reduced through distributed token ownership, vesting of large packages, and founder privileges in the first years for initial protection.
91–100: Prospects, Final Points and Development Strategy
91. How will the ecosystem's "success" be measured in 5–10 years? By the dynamics of the "sum of goods" (transaction volume, aggregate supply and demand for goods and services, JGDP), number of active companies, and user base growth.
92. What will happen to the founder's controlling stake after 5 years? Their 51% voting power will gradually exit vesting, and decision-making will smoothly transition to the community.
93. Is it necessary to comply with any "Western" regulations (SEC, etc.)? The project is positioned as decentralized; interaction with off-chain is at the discretion of legal gateways. However, partial compliance (AML, KYC) is possible for banks.
94. How is transaction scaling planned as users grow? L2 solutions, sidechains, sharding, off-chain processing with periodic on-chain fixation. The Juna API itself will be redesigned for decentralized architecture after achieving economic system saturation.
95. Can competing tokens appear within Juna? Theoretically yes (companies can issue their own), but the base ecosystem is concentrated on the Juna token as the main medium of exchange and payment for economic operations.
96. Can DeFi technologies (DEX, AMM) be borrowed from other networks? Yes, with appropriate bridges. Some tools are already open and easily integrable.
97. How does Juna plan to attract dApp developers? Through Development Fund grants, clear APIs, documentation, competitions (hackathons), and marketing support.
98. If users from the real sector want to connect, how can this be done? Through "legal gateways" that will confirm off-chain transactions, opening digital legal entity representations, through DeFi tools (Juna banking system).
99. What are the main risks for the ecosystem? Lack of liquidity, external speculation, insufficient user activity, smart contract errors, collusion of large whales.
100. What is the main development strategy for the project in the coming years? Focus on real utility (services, economic entities, companies, contracts, "Mars" game), stimulate the emergence of new companies and projects, strengthen DAO mechanisms, maintaining stable and organic growth.
