# Deflationary Impact

The settlement of payments for services is paid to the Token Reserve\*, creating a mechanism of removing tokens out of circulation.

This reduces the supply of tokens in circulation thus benefits all token holders and the ecosystem.

\* 20% of the tokens paid for business services go to PUBLC Developers and PUBLC Foundation
