Why to mint Nuon

Holding Nuon in a non-custodial wallet provides users with liquid yields in Nuon. Extra Nuon equal to current inflation as measured by Truflation CPI is rebased, in real-time, into Nuon holders' wallets.

Inflation Yield

When holding Nuon, yields are automatically deposited into wallets holding Nuon*:

• Rebase mechanism increases the Nuon balance automatically.

• Yield rate corresponds to real-world inflation (~2–3%) as measured by Truflation CPI.

• Yields are rebased in real time.

• No yield is applied during deflation (i.e., yield only occurs when inflation > 0).

*When staked, Nuon is deposited into the stake for compounding effects.

**During the unbonding time, yields are not accrued.
