In most DeFi ecosystems, governance tokens suffer from a major challenge: they capture little or no real economic value. JUST breaks away from this pattern by establishing a clear, direct link between protocol revenue and JST value.
Unlike inflationary reward tokens, JST is backed by recurring protocol income generated from:
Lending interest on JustLend DAO
Liquidation fees
Staked TRX (sTRX) yield
Energy rental fees generated by network users
A portion of this revenue is allocated for the JST buyback-and-burn cycle, turning the token into a deflationary asset with real cash-flow support.
This structure positions JST similarly to a revenue-share model:
Protocol earns revenue
Revenue is used to buy JST
Bought JST is permanently burned
Supply drops → scarcity increases
Value per token strengthens
This transforms JST from a simple governance token into a protocol-backed asset with real yield fundamentals, making it one of the most economically sound DeFi tokens in the TRON ecosystem.
