OKRW Economics

Maroo's x/feemarket module implements an EIP-1559–compatible dynamic base fee for OKRW gas. The base fee adjusts each block based on how full the previous block was: above the target gas usage, the base fee rises; below it, the base fee falls. Senders submit transactions with maxFeePerGas and maxPriorityFeePerGas, exactly as on Ethereum mainnet — the only difference is the unit (aokrw instead of wei). Standard EVM tooling produces correct values without configuration.

All gas fees on Maroo are paid in a KRW-pegged stablecoin (OKRW). This allows users and developers to predict and manage costs in a stable, familiar unit, removing the compounded volatility that plagues other networks.

The x/okrw module governs minting of the aokrw token — Maroo's native gas token. (Staking is settled in a separate bond denom, amaroo.) Its design is intentionally simple: only one authorized 'minter' address can create new tokens, and that address is a module parameter changeable only through on-chain governance.
