# Six Structural Problems in the Current Market

Most projects fall into two groups: tap-to-earn mining projects (Pi Network, Notcoin), and traditional social networking applications. Both groups leave six structural gaps:

* **Problem 1: Zero-cost action equals zero value.** Pressing a button or watching an ad costs near-zero for both humans and virtual machines. Unich Network addresses this through Peer Meet — requiring two real people in the physical world, GPS-verified by an independent third party.
* **Problem 2: Fundraising models without real revenue.** Unich Network addresses this through a commitment to use 30% of advertising and subscription revenue to buy back FC after TGE.
* **Problem 3: Listing the token before utility exists.** Unich Network only TGEs when FC has real utility Users actually use, revenue has reached sufficient scale for buy-back to impact the market, and network density has reached a level where virtual machines cannot outperform real Nodes.
* **Problem 4: Unsustainable economic models after TGE.** Unich Network applies flexible supply tied to the network combined with Node-count-based halving, plus FC consumption mechanisms through internal usage.
* **Problem 5: Insufficient network density to absorb a listing.** Unich Network only TGEs when genuine Node density is sufficiently broad.
* **Problem 6: Accountability without binding mechanisms.** Unich Network addresses this through an immutable mechanism: every commitment comes with a self-enforced penalty clause. The 120% refund program with 10% penalty per missed tranche is the first demonstration.
