Economic Agents

Who are the users of the apps and their economic agents?
DUA involves different stakeholders, also known as Economic Agents, along the whole spectrum of the ecosystem. When designing any economy, be it blockchain or non-blockchain based, it is crucial to consider the types of economic agents in the space first.
An economy is a network of individuals that transact between themselves, expecting to obtain value from these transactions. There is a symbiotic relationship between an economy and its participants. Members of any economic system benefit from participating in the economy, increasing its value.
To define DUA economic agents, we must first understand the users of dua.com and how they interact with the app and other users. Dua.com is the marketplace where the economy forms and where all agents/stakeholders meet and transact.

Every app user can own an in-app wallet, making them potential DUA holders. Since DUA's utility is tied to the app's services, users will have a strong incentive to circulate the token inside the app.
We identify four economic agents that can be part of our ecosystem.
  1. 1.
    Traditional Users (Love, Biz, Friends & Spotted)
  2. 2.
    Crypto Users (Love, Biz, Friends & Spotted)
  3. 3.
    Businesses (Love, Biz, Friends & Spotted)
  4. 4.
    Developers & Marketers (Smart Contracts, Governance)
Traditional and crypto app users sit at the ecosystem's core. They use the apps based on their needs and preferences. In the early stages, we aim to reach at least 50% of our traditional user base and introduce them to our crypto services. Businesses are another group of users that add value to the ecosystem. In our initial app mode - dua Love, they run ads to gain impressions for their products and services to millions of people. Without even acknowledging it, they become DUA adopters as soon as they buy ads in DUA. Developers and marketers are a part of the community, which will help us elevate the game and reach business and technical excellence. By being part of the governance process, the foundation will work with all parties that share our vision and want to add value with development and marketing capabilities.
