I strongly believe that PIZZA Community should announce a Strategic Token Minting and Economic Stabilization Plan
The PIZZA token community should vote on a significant economic intervention that includes the minting of 1 million new PIZZA tokens—a move that will increase the current circulating supply by approximately 47.5%. This decision would comes as the team prepares for the launch of the MOON game, which will integrate PIZZA tokens as its primary currency bridge to gameplay.
The new tokens should be considered “out of circulation” until sold, and should be placed as a "sell wall" at a fixed price of 0.069, effectively capping potential price growth in the short term. This intervention would openly acknowledge that limiting immediate price appreciation might disappoint some current token holders who may have been anticipating potential “ginormous” gains from the MOON game integration.
I recognize this decision would create a ceiling for token value in the near term, which may disappoint long term token holders of the PIZZA community. The increased supply through this minting process will dilute the token's scarcity factor, and I know that many community members value this aspect of PIZZA.
The move would represent a deliberate approach to managing market dynamics, prioritizing long-term sustainability over short-term price appreciation. Current holders may face a period of price stabilization rather than the immediate gains typically associated with new utility announcements.
The upcoming MOON game is internally sustainable already
The upcoming MOON game introduces a sustainable economic model where players can deposit PIZZA tokens to receive Pizzabits for in-game use. The game also features multiple Pizzabits earning opportunities through expeditions, Hall of Fame events, and bounties, creating a sustainable circular economy. The innovative "season" structure ensures gameplay remains fresh, with the first universe becoming deprecated once a player achieves graviton research level 1.
The MOON plan includes a thoughtful distribution of the PIZZA that gets deposited, with 50% allocated to player rewards and 50% supporting ecosystem development, including protocol-backed liquidity that ensures growing and long-term token availability.
The only escape valve is through PIZZA token
On the positive side though, all proceeds from the sell wall should be converted to HIVE Power and held by the @Hive.Pizza community treasury. This approach transforms potential market speculation into community-owned assets that strengthen the ecosystem's foundation and governance capacity. The HIVE Power accumulated will generate ongoing value for the community through network influence as well as resource credits.
It is my believe that by capturing market exuberance as community assets, we would be building a stronger foundation for sustainable growth into the future, both for the MOON game as well as the wider PIZZA community. Rather than allowing temporary price spikes that often lead to crashes (and saddness plus salt) we would be converting that energy into lasting value for the entire ecosystem, under PIZZA community management.
If the initial 1 million token sell wall is fully purchased, the community should again evaluate market conditions and potentially implement another sell wall at a higher price point, indicating a measured, data-driven approach to economic management.
This strategic intervention would reflect the community's commitment to responsible growth and long-term sustainability rather than short-term gains - positioning the PIZZA ecosystem for enduring success as it expands into gaming with the MOON project.
