MTR in the initial allocation
MTR / THE MACHINETRANSFER TOKEN
Clear rules.
Transparent economics.
MTR is the payment asset in the MachineTransfer protocol. Its ERC-20 architecture defines how balances move, how transfers contribute to the treasury and how issuance is calculated.

TRANSFER MECHANICS
Know what you send.
Know what arrives.
On an ordinary transfer, 0.85% of the gross amount goes to the treasury and the balance goes to the recipient. Sending 100 MTR allocates 0.85 MTR to the treasury and 99.15 MTR to the recipient.
For an invoice stated as a net amount, the sender supplies the corresponding gross amount. The calculation uses 18-decimal token units and rounds the tax down to a whole base unit.

TREASURY & ISSUANCE
A defined policy.
Readable by anyone.
The initial allocation
The one-billion-MTR genesis supply is allocated to the treasury wallet. The treasury recipient is fixed in the token contract.
The annual rule
Each completed 365-day period adds 5% of the preceding scheduled supply to the treasury when settled. Anyone can settle due periods through the contract. Issuance compounds across completed periods. It expands the total supply; a fixed balance represents a smaller share as the supply grows.
The treasury’s role
The treasury receives transfer allocations and annual issuance. Those token balances are separate from a holder’s balance. MTR’s role is payment within the protocol; it carries no claim on treasury assets or distribution of treasury income.
A token amount
is one part of the price.
MTR has a variable market price. Its transfer tax is a token rule; Ethereum gas, exchange spreads and service pricing are separate parts of a payment’s economics.
Each additional taxed transfer adds to the route’s total. A useful comparison prices the same delivered service across accepted payment methods, using complete costs and the operator’s budget.
