# Mechanism - How does it work

The debt protocol is incorporated directly into the DEBT token. Holders are all debtors and creditors towards someone thus allowing the token to have a sustainable and complete cyclical debt. However, holders can be more creditors than debtors.

In fact it depends on the number of tokens. The more tokens the user has, the more debts he earns as his influence over debt protocol is higher. Conversly, the less tokens an user has, the more credit he has to pay to his debtors (people **generally** in the tier above the concerned user)

In order to be able to carry out a sustainable cyclical debt, we have made numerous statistical tests and analyzes on the distribution of crypto tokens with more than 1000 Holders. We have come to the conclusion that a 5 category tier is the most effective way for the debt system to develop.
