Hyperion announced the tokenomics model, RION/xRION establishes a new paradigm for DeFi incentives and governance on Aptos.

According to Mars Finance, on July 10, the leading DEX of the Aptos ecosystem, Hyperion, announced its platform token economic model. It will adopt a dual-token design of RION and xRION to provide fundamental support for user incentives, platform governance, and ecological construction. Among them, RION is the platform’s native transferable token with a total supply of 100 million coins, and it has core functions such as payment, settlement, and participation incentives within the platform. xRION is a non-transferable governance token obtained by staking RION, representing platform governance weight and special rights, which can be used in scenarios such as DAO governance voting and Launchpad quota allocation. According to the mechanism, users can exchange RION for the corresponding proportion of xRION based on the lock-up duration (up to 52 weeks). The weight of xRION will linearly decay over time, supporting dynamic extensions. In the future, xRION will carry more core rights of the platform and build a highly participative and sustainable community collaboration model. This move marks Hyperion’s further improvement of platform governance and incentive systems beyond basic trading functions, accelerating the mechanism innovation and value accumulation of Aptos DeFi.
