The asset powering Polymarct. It exists to route market creation, liquidity and governance through the people who use the market. Product first. Token second.
Opening a market requires a creator bond, posted in USDC on Arc like everything else that involves money here. Holding $PMARC lowers the bond. The bond is returned when the market resolves cleanly and is slashed when a question is found to be ambiguous or manipulated. Creation has a cost so that garbage questions have a cost.
Liquidity provision on thin but genuine markets is rewarded from an ecosystem allocation. Rewards are weighted by resolved volume and uptime of quotes, not by raw size, so mercenary wash liquidity earns nothing.
Platform level decisions go to holders: category policy, fee parameters, dispute thresholds and which resolution sources are admissible. Governance covers the rules of the market, never the outcome of a live one.
Trading, collateral, fees and payouts are USDC on Arc, always. $PMARC is not a payment asset and you never need it to trade. Holding it can reduce the protocol fee tier, a utility rather than a yield, and it is capped so fee policy stays legible.
Advanced analytics, the full terminal layer, Market Map exports and signal alerting can be gated to holders. The consumer product stays free, because the habit is the business.
No guaranteed appreciation. No promised yield. No fabricated APY. No claim on platform revenue. No language about buying before anything explodes.
$PMARC is an ecosystem asset. It can lose value, including all of it. If it becomes interesting, it will be because people use the market every morning, not because of a chart on this page.
Optimise for the habit.
Not for the token.
The question this product is built around is not how to make people buy $PMARC. It is how to make people check Polymarct every morning to see what the market thinks. Everything else follows from that or does not matter.
