L1 Continuous-Fee Runway Model

Models an Avalanche Evergreen L1's continuous P-Chain fee against its balance: validator count times the fee rate, plus infra cost, plus the current balance, into an annual total cost of ownership. The fee rate and its growth assumption are always inputs you supply, never a constant baked into the tool, because the ACP-77 continuous fee is dynamic and rises with ecosystem-wide validator count. The result that matters is months_to_depletion: the point at which the balance runs out and the L1 stops validating.

L1 Fee & Balance Inputs
Validator count
Fee rate (AVAX / validator / month)
The ACP-77 continuous fee is dynamic and rises with ecosystem-wide validator count. 1.33 is the launch reference point, not a current figure — supply your own.
Fee growth assumption (% / year)
Infra / AvaCloud cost (annual)
Current P-Chain balance
as_of (caller supplied, echoed)
The kernel never reads a clock. Evaluation time is an input so the result is reproducible.
Target runway (months)
Model horizon (months, optional cap)
Bounds the simulation so a zero-burn input resolves to a defined result rather than an unbounded projection. Default cap: 1200 months.

    Ask your agent

    Copy this paragraph into Claude, OpenClaw, or any MCP-aware agent to run this exact tool, with this sample, and verify the artifact.

    Run the AINumbers MCP tool `model_l1_fee_runway`. Task: Avalanche Evergreen L1 continuous-fee TCO and depletion-runway model.
    Call it with arguments: {"policy_parameters":{"validator_count":50,"fee_rate_avax_per_validator_month":1.33,"fee_growth_rate_annual_pct":10,"infra_cost_annual":12000,"current_balance":6000,"as_of":1753900000,"target_runway_months":24}}
    Verify before trusting: call `verify_execution_hash` on mcp.ainumbers.co (https://mcp.ainumbers.co/mcp) with the parameter `claimed_hash` set to the returned `execution_hash`, passing the full artifact the run returned (the object containing `policy_parameters` + `output_payload` + `execution_hash`; equivalently `policy_parameters` + `output_payload` with `claimed_hash`), not the bare hash string.
    Return the ledger link https://ledger.ainumbers.co/ so a human can re-verify without contacting us.
