Moony Pattern

Moony (MNY) is a decentralized digital currency designed for peer-to-peer payments. It combines a credibly fixed supply with low-cost, high-speed settlement on the Solana blockchain, enabling direct value transfer between individuals without intermediaries. MNY functions as digital cash: scarce, portable, and transferable to anyone, anywhere, at any time.

Unlike traditional currencies subject to discretionary monetary policy, Moony’s supply is permanently capped and enforced by immutable code. This design establishes MNY as a neutral, trust-minimized medium of exchange, suitable for everyday transactions, cross-border remittances, micropayments, and participation in decentralized finance.

Core Properties

MNY is designed to function as permissionless digital cash, with transaction properties that support direct ownership, voluntary self-custody, and censorship-resistant exchange. These characteristics enable open participation in economic activity, extending access to anyone, anywhere, on equal terms.

Permissionless

Transactions do not require approval from centralized authorities. Anyone can send or receive MNY without identity verification, minimum balances, or institutional gatekeeping.

Censorship Resistant

Transfers cannot be selectively blocked or filtered by third parties. Valid transactions are processed by the network regardless of the parties involved or the nature of the exchange.

Irreversible

Once confirmed onchain, transactions are final and cannot be reversed, modified, or disputed. This provides settlement certainty without reliance on intermediaries or escrow.

Self-Custody

Participants hold and control their own assets without surrendering custody to banks or intermediaries. Value can move as freely as information across the network.

Fixed Supply

Moony Pattern

Moony has a fixed maximum supply of 21 million units, an immutable constraint that cryptographically ensures the protocol’s long-term economic integrity. This cap mirrors Bitcoin’s supply design, reflecting a shared commitment to absolute digital scarcity as a foundation for sound money.

There is no mechanism by which additional units can ever be created. The mint authority is permanently locked in an immutable smart contract, with no administrative keys, governance votes, or protocol upgrades able to expand the supply beyond the fixed cap.

Absolute Scarcity

The 21 million cap is permanently enforced at the smart contract level. Unlike fiat currencies subject to discretionary expansion, Moony’s supply cannot be inflated by any authority.

No Inflation

Unlike fiat currencies that lose purchasing power through continuous expansion, Moony’s supply cannot be diluted. Holders are protected from monetary debasement by design.

Code-Enforced

Scarcity is guaranteed by immutable smart contract logic, not policy promises. Participants can verify the supply constraint directly onchain, enabling trust-minimized economic coordination.

Divisibility

MNY supports 10 decimal places, enabling transactions as small as 0.0000000001 MNY. This extreme divisibility makes Moony suitable for micropayments, streaming payments, and machine-to-machine commerce where traditional payment rails fail due to minimum transaction thresholds.

Combined with Solana’s sub-cent transaction fees, this precision enables economic activity at scales previously impossible: per-second billing, sub-cent tips, real-time metering, and granular value exchange between devices and services.
