The Three Loops

SHAWARMA.TRADE operates through three interconnected feedback loops that create a sustainable, transparent, and value-accruing system.

1. The Business Loop

Customer buys shawarma

Shop generates revenue

Operating costs are paid (rent, staff, ingredients, equipment)

Net profit is calculated (publicly visible on dashboard)

Designated percentage of profit is sent to Buyback Contract

Contract buys SHAMA on open market (DEX)

Purchased tokens are permanently burned

Total supply decreases → remaining tokens become scarcer

2. The Governance Loop

Token holder stakes SHAMA

Staking weight determines voting power

Proposals are submitted on-chain (new locations, budget changes, operator reviews)

Community votes during proposal window

Approved proposals are executed by operations team

Results are visible via livestream and dashboards

3. The Monitoring Loop

Livestream cameras at every shop (kitchen + front counter)

POS (Point of Sale) data feeds to public dashboard

Daily/weekly/monthly revenue, expenses, net profit — all visible

Token holders can flag concerns via governance proposals

Quarterly operator performance reviews driven by data

Buyback-and-Burn Mechanism

This is the core value engine of the protocol.

How It Works

  1. Each shop’s net profit is calculated monthly (revenue minus all operating costs)
  2. A designated percentage of net profit (initially 50%, adjustable by governance) is converted to the token’s trading currency
  3. Funds are sent to the Buyback-and-Burn smart contract
  4. The contract executes market buys of SHAMA on the designated DEX
  5. All purchased tokens are sent to the burn address (0x000…dead) — permanently removed from supply
  6. Every transaction is recorded on-chain with full transparency
These are illustrative estimates, not guarantees. Actual figures depend on shop performance, location, and market conditions.

Transparency Layer

Livestreams

Every operating shop has livestream cameras covering:
  • Kitchen area: Food preparation, hygiene standards, workflow
  • Front counter / service area: Customer flow, service quality
  • No audio to protect employee and customer privacy
Streams are accessible 24/7 to all SHAMA stakers through the governance portal.

Financial Dashboard

A public, real-time dashboard displaying per-shop and aggregate data:
  • Daily transaction count and revenue
  • Weekly and monthly revenue trends
  • Operating cost breakdown
  • Net profit calculation
  • Buyback-and-burn execution history
  • Cumulative tokens burned
  • Token circulating supply

Quarterly Reports

The operations team publishes quarterly reports covering:
  • Financial performance per shop and aggregate
  • Operator performance reviews
  • Expansion progress and pipeline
  • Governance activity summary
  • Token supply and burn statistics
  • Challenges, risks, and mitigation actions
