Token Buybacks, Burns & Value Accrual

This section is one of the most important layers: it analyzes whether Plugin (PLI) captures and retains on-chain value and how effectively that value flows back to the token. We examine fee redistribution, staking rewards, buyback mechanisms, burn models, and whether the protocol creates real token sinks that reduce sell pressure over time.
