#fogo $FOGO The economics of Fogo are actually really interesting when you dig into them, and they make way more sense than most L1 tokenomics.
Running professional blockchain infrastructure in Tokyo, London, and NYC isn't cheap. Validators need tier-1 data center space, specialized hardware, enterprise networking, and 24/7 operations teams. This costs real money - way more than hobbyist validators running consumer hardware at home.
But here's why it works: Fogo targets professional traders and institutional DeFi. These users value performance enough to pay for it. A hedge fund making millions from arbitrage doesn't care about $50 transaction fees if execution is guaranteed. They care about reliability and speed.
This creates sustainable economics. Transaction fees can support professional validator operations because the target market will pay premium prices for premium service. you're not trying to support billion-dollar infrastructure on $0.001 transaction fees from casual users.
It's like comparing budget airlines to business class. Both serv the travel market, but they have completely different cost structure and target completely different customers. Fogo is business class infrastructure for users who need it and can afford it.
The token economic incentivize long-term staking than speculation. Validators need substantial capital at stake, creating skin-in-the game alignment. Transaction fee revenue supplements staking rewards for sustainable yields without crazy inflation.
When the economics make sense, everything else can work.
