By using the DGTX token as its native currency in which all account balances and tick values are denominated in, the Digitex Futures Exchange can generate the revenue needed to keep the lights on by creating a small number of new tokens each years instead of charging transaction fees on trades. This is a brand new futures exchange model that removes the cost burden of the exchange from the most active traders and instead spreads it out amongst all DGTX token owners in the form of inflation. But the inflation rate will be only a few percent per year, and the demand that is created for DGTX by the exchange will dwarf the inflationary cost of paying for that exchange.
