Qubic has officially launched Project X, an initiative focused on achieving a more stable and sustainable economic balance within the protocol.
Unfolded over four consecutive days — known as the “4 Days of X” — the project introduced four key pillars that redefine Qubic’s internal mechanics: the new emission model, the Computor Controlled Fund (CCF), QEarn, and a protocol extension.
New emission model
Qubic’s new emission model reduces the maximum supply to 200T QUBIC, down from the previous 1,000T. It includes an immediate 15% cut in weekly emissions, followed by scheduled reductions every 52 weeks. This supply structure works in tandem with the token burn mechanism to create a sustainable and deflationary cycle that rewards community participation.
Computor controlled fund (CCF)
Funded with 8% of weekly emissions and already holding over 770B QUBIC, the CCF allows computors to directly allocate resources to proposals that support the ecosystem. These may include initiatives in marketing, development, tooling, infrastructure, and more.
Qearn
QEarn allows users to lock up their QUBIC in exchange for rewards. Early unlocks are allowed without penalties, but unearned rewards are redistributed and partially burned — creating both flexibility and positive reinforcement for long-term holding. This design reduces circulating supply and strengthens token economics.
Protocol extension
The protocol extension is the technical backbone that enables the other three components to function. It empowers computors to assign emissions, fund community proposals, and coordinate the network’s growth through collective decision-making.
