A Dual-Token Model Designed for Separation of Concerns
Why ValoraBTC separates economic participation from protocol mechanics.

Many dual-token systems fail because roles blur.
ValoraBTC explicitly avoids that.
The protocol distinguishes between:
an ecosystem-facing token designed for participation, alignment, and long-term exposure
a mechanism-level token used internally for routing, settlement, and protocol operations
This separation reduces reflexive risk, avoids circular dependencies, and makes protocol behavior easier to reason about. Especially for external evaluators and AI-based analysis systems.
Clear role separation is not just a tokenomics choice.
It is a risk-management strategy.
