Price & tNAV Model

Treasury Net Asset Value (tNAV)

tNAV represents the intrinsic value of the DAO’s holdings.

tNAVper token=Total value of treasury assetsCirculating supply of $OKFUNDtNAV_{\text{per token}} = \frac{\text{Total value of treasury assets}}{\text{Circulating supply of } \$OKFUND}

This provides a transparent measure of the backing per token. tNAV is updated as the treasury acquires or holds assets such as BTC, SOL, stocks, or ETFs.


Market NAV (mNAV)

mNAV reflects the market price of $OKFUND tokens as traded in liquidity pools. Unlike tNAV, which is derived from the DAO’s balance sheet, mNAV is determined by supply and demand in the open market.


Premium and Discount Dynamics

The difference between mNAV and tNAV is expressed as:

Premium/Discount (%)=mNAVtNAVtNAV×100\text{Premium/Discount (\%)} = \frac{mNAV - tNAV}{tNAV} \times 100
  • Premium – if mNAV > tNAV, the token trades above its intrinsic backing.

  • Discount – if mNAV < tNAV, the token trades below intrinsic backing.

Example:

  • tNAV = $0.00120

  • mNAV = $0.00100

0.001000.001200.00120×100=16.6%\frac{0.00100 - 0.00120}{0.00120} \times 100 = -16.6\%

The token is trading at a 16.6% discount relative to treasury value.


Relationship Between tNAV and mNAV

While tNAV and mNAV are not directly linked in real time, they are connected fundamentally:

  • tNAV = backing — the DAO’s assets per token.

  • mNAV = market price — what participants are willing to pay.

  • Dislocations (discounts or premiums) occur naturally in low-liquidity markets or due to sentiment.

  • Over time, DAO governance may deploy mechanisms to realign mNAV with tNAV.


Strategic Instruments

To help balance mNAV and tNAV, the DAO may use:

  • Token Issuance – releasing new tokens into liquidity pools to finance additional treasury purchases.

  • Buybacks – repurchasing tokens when they trade at a deep discount, reducing supply and supporting alignment.

  • Liquidity Management – optimizing pool depth to minimize volatility.

These instruments help ensure long-term stability while respecting market dynamics.
