What is PainStrategy (PAINSTR)?

PainStrategy is a Web3 project that functions as a specialized branch of the NFTStrategy ecosystem. It is primarily built around the work of the digital artist XCopy, specifically linking its utility to the Max Pain and Frens NFT collection. The project operates on the Ethereum blockchain and is developed by a group known as TokenWorks. The core of the project is a mechanical engine referred to as the Yoyo. This system is designed to create a perpetual cycle of activity between the projects native token, PAINSTR, and the associated NFT collection. When transactions occur within the ecosystem, a portion of the fees is automatically directed toward a decentralized treasury. This treasury is programmed to monitor the market for specific NFTs from the Max Pain collection. Once sufficient resources are accumulated, the smart contract automatically purchases these NFTs directly on-chain without the need for human intervention or external oracles. After an NFT is acquired by the protocol, it is immediately relisted for sale. When a sale is completed, the proceeds are used to trigger a burn mechanism that permanently removes tokens from the ecosystem. This process is intended to create a continuous loop of accumulation and destruction, mirroring themes of repetition and decay often found in XCopys artwork. In addition to the automated trading engine, the project incorporates a royalty system that supports the original creator. A portion of every transaction is routed directly to XCopy, ensuring the artist is compensated during the protocols automated processes. The project also interacts with other tokens in the NFTStrategy family, such as PNKSTR, through its burn mechanisms. It characterizes itself as a decentralized paradox where the destruction of tokens feeds the growth of the NFT treasury, all managed through self-executing code. Learn more

PainStrategy (PAINSTR) FAQ

While automated scanners may flag the token due to its 10% transaction tax, this is not a sign of a scam. The tax is a fundamental part of the ecosystem's design, fueling the treasury used for NFT buybacks. The developer, TokenWorks, is a recognized studio in the financialized art space, known for creating tokens linked to blue-chip NFT collections.
The 'Yoyo' is a perpetual loop designed to support the token's ecosystem. A 10% fee from every trade is collected into an Ethereum treasury. Once sufficient funds are gathered, the smart contract automatically purchases a floor-priced 'Max Pain' NFT. This NFT is immediately relisted at a 20% markup. When it sells, the profits are used to buy and burn PAINSTR tokens, reducing the total supply.
PainStrategy is a community-led protocol rather than a direct corporate partnership with XCopy. However, it utilizes XCopy’s CC0 (Creative Commons) assets and is designed to honor the creator. The protocol includes a hard-coded 1% royalty from every token trade that is sent directly to XCopy’s wallet, ensuring the artist benefits from the ecosystem's activity.
Both tokens are part of the NFTStrategy ecosystem but target different NFT collections. PAINSTR is linked to XCopy’s 'Max Pain & Frens,' while PNKSTR (PunkStrategy) is linked to 'CryptoPunks.' These sibling tokens are part of a broader framework where the success of one project can support the entire ecosystem through cross-token burn mechanisms.
This occurs because of the built-in 10% transaction tax (8% to the treasury, 1% to burn, and 1% to the creator). When trading on decentralized platforms, users must set their slippage higher to account for this fee. The 10% difference between the market price and the tokens received is the intended contribution to the project’s automated NFT buyback and burn engine.
PAINSTR can be traded on exchanges like LBank and various decentralized platforms. To track the project's 'proof of work,' users can visit the official ecosystem dashboard. This tool provides transparency by showing the current 'Max Pain' NFTs held by the treasury, those currently listed for sale, and the progress of the automated cycles.
