MrNasdog Pressure Framework

COMP · fixed cap, vesting done, reserve almost empty.

COMP is the governance token of Compound, an Ethereum lending protocol — an ERC-20 with a fixed 10M cap, ~9.67M circulating (~96.7%).

Sell pressure. The last ~331.8K reserve COMP slowly enters circulation as it is distributed — about 26.5K COMP / 90D.

Buy pressure. None. No buyback, no fee burn, no Foundation accumulation, no new lock.

Net. Reserve drain only, so supply creeps up ~0.27% to market over 90 days.
