Liquidity providers deposit funds into Barnbridge and receive a return on investment (supply-side fees).

Barnbridge is an asset management protocol built on Ethereum. Barnbridge was founded by Troy Murray, Tyler Scott Ward & Bogdan Gheorghe and launched in 2020.

BOND tokenholders own and govern the protocol. They currently take a cut of the total return on investment & all of the total withdrawal fees paid by liquidity providers (revenue). Barnbridge’s investors include Fourth Revolution Capital, ParaFi Capital, Centrality, etc.

# Barnbridge Maximum token supply Methodology

## 1. Overview

The BarnBridge maximum token supply metric represents the theoretical maximum number of BOND tokens that can exist according to the protocol's tokenomics design. This is a static configuration value rather than a calculated metric, as it reflects the hard-coded maximum supply defined in the BarnBridge protocol specifications. The metric answers the business question: "What is the upper limit of BOND tokens that can ever be in circulation?"

## 2. Data sources

This metric uses static configuration data rather than dynamic blockchain data:

- **Protocol specifications**: The maximum token supply value as defined in the BarnBridge protocol documentation and smart contract design
- **Launch date information**: The official launch timestamp for the BOND token
- **Tokenomics parameters**: Fixed supply constraints built into the protocol architecture

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: Static configuration setup
- **Purpose**: Define the fundamental tokenomics parameters for BarnBridge's BOND token
- **Logic**: The calculation uses predetermined values that represent the protocol's design decisions. The launch timestamp is set to October 26, 2020 at 00:00:00 UTC, marking when the BOND token became active. The maximum supply is defined as exactly 10,000,000 tokens, representing the theoretical ceiling for token existence regardless of current circulating supply
- **Key fields**: The `timestamp` field marks the protocol launch date, `timestamp_grain` is set to daily for consistent time series formatting, and `token_supply_maximum` contains the hard limit of 10,000,000 tokens

### Component B: Metric finalization and formatting
- **Purpose**: Standardize the static configuration into the consistent metric output format used across Token Terminal
- **Logic**: The finalization macro processes the static values using a fill-forward strategy, which means the same maximum supply value is propagated across all time periods from the launch date onward. This creates a time series where every day shows the same maximum supply value, reflecting that this limit doesn't change over time
- **Key fields**: The macro adds standardized metadata fields and ensures consistent schema formatting with the `barnbridge` data identifier

### Final aggregation
- **Combining components**: No combination occurs since this is a single static value
- **Currency conversion**: Not applicable as this represents token count rather than monetary value
- **Time aggregation**: The fill-forward strategy creates daily records with the same maximum supply value for each time period from the launch date
- **Final calculation**: The final metric value is simply the static maximum supply of 10,000,000 BOND tokens, formatted as a time series with consistent daily grain from the October 26, 2020 launch date forward
