As empowered by the blockchain ecosystem, the DEEPSPACE team believes in letting gamers have full ownership over their in-game assets and empowering players to earn by actively playing the game! By participating in the DEEPSPACE in-game economy, players are creating and adding value for other players.

To avoid issues with contract ownership renouncement, the DEEPSPACE team is retaining control of the contract. $DPS tokenomics are adjustable via Smart Contract functions, and the DEEPSPACE team can adjust them as needed to maintain a healthy player ecosystem. This does provide an inherent centralization risk of ownership within the blockchain ecosystem, but is a necessary risk to be able to provide a contract that can be adjusted, within limits defined inside the contract, on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) platform.

To mitigate this risk, we have deployed controls that lower the risk of one individual controlling the entire $DPS token.

Below are the risk mitigation strategies we have deployed:

  • Contract code limits the maximum possible swap fees to 15% to prevent ownership from abusing holders. Without this, fees could be set to 100% and any address could be excluded. This has been exploited in other coins/tokens.
  • Centralization risks are mitigated by the use of Gnosis-Safe Multi-Sig wallets. The team utilizes multi-sig wallets on Gnosis with six custodians, requiring four of six signatures for approval of execution. The six custodians are core team members considered the owners of the project.
  • Remind the community the following risks:

📌 “Never send tokens to the contract address, they will be lost forever.”

📌️ “Never send tokens to the burn address (all zeroes), they will be lost forever.”

  • Four separate wallets are utilized for organization flexibility and bookkeeping and are as detailed below:

Core Team Wallet — DEEPSPACE Contract owner

👛 0xacc34268f5d7cb9b11bfb1ba4d8bd2bc2b49ee4e

Flex/Marketing

👛 0xbdaed74fc8b18d6c99122c2076068444941da5a4

Solidity Development

👛 0x7c5705e10d6b1700aca01274a53be25292357809

The six addresses of the multi-sig wallet owners are:

🔑 0x629bc9173bffc3a4be7655840e678787db43d23a

🔑 0x23f25d8304dfdf8001a3e80891e3ae43f322f2fa

Initial Token Distribution Disclosure

The initial token distribution occurred immediately after token creation, and the details are as follows:

Token Distribution Model (https://deepspace.game/dps)

🗸 10,000,000 tokens were transferred to Burn Address

🗸 18,750,000 tokens transferred to Gnosis Safe multi-sig Core Team wallet and reserved for future use.

🗸 55,000,000 tokens transferred to swap contract to facilitate token swap from renounced Riskmoon contract to new DEEPSPACE tokens for end users.

🗸~46,400,000 of this was distributed to community holders via swap contract. Riskmoon users received DEEPSPACE tokens in exchange for sending their Riskmoon tokens (which originated from a DXSale fair launch) to the swap contract.

🗸 Riskmoon tokens were later swapped to BNB and provided to Pancakeswap as initial LP for DEEPSPACE. Additional BNB is retained within Core Team wallet for game funding without the need to sell DPS and affect price.
