# Reserve Replenishment

### Ensuring Sustainability and Market Harmony

Whilst the rewards made on projects will be directly paid to stakers via PRTs at maturity, development listing fees of up to 5% will go to the Modus Reserve in the form of $USDC.&#x20;

The first use of these funds is the replenishment of $MODUS tokens in the Treasury to cover the swaps made from PTs and PRTs to $MODUS tokens before maturity; notably, the exponential rewards will mean that early swaps are disincentivised and therefore replenishment requirements will stay low.

&#x20;$USDC from the Modus Treasury will be sent to an address that programmatically buys $MODUS tokens over an extended period of time from the market to average out the price; consequently, not only spreading Modus Treasury risk from price fluctuations but also not inadvertently affecting market prices through large buy orders.
