# WLPD Price Growth

It must be evident by now that WLPD is critical to the metaverse. A continuous rise in its price will result in more value for our stakeholders. Here’s why the same seems inevitable:

1. WLPD tokens have a capped supply, with no additional minting rights.
2. 5% WLPD from every in-metaverse activity is burned, thereby reducing the supply.
3. With multiple benefits for staking WLPD, such as DAO voting rights and WLPD income through holding or auditing, there will always be a strong demand to stake the same, which will further reduce the supply.
4. Tokens granted liberally at the early stages will have strict linear vesting to avoid WLPD from being flooded into the market.
5. WLPD given as rewards will keep coming down by half every year.

Reduced supply and increasing demand for WLPD will keep driving up prices.

In the case of SQUARE, to give some perspective, our total of 44,100 tokens is less than even the monthly new company registration in the US. Brands competing to build their virtual HQs on our professional metaverse with limited SQUAREs will only drive up the prices!
