🪙GPUAI Tokenomics (2025–2028)
🪙 7.1 Token Utility & Use Cases
The GPUAI token is the economic engine of the protocol. It is used to coordinate compute, reward contributors, and govern the ecosystem. Whether you’re a developer submitting jobs or a GPU node operator contributing compute, GPUAI tokens power every interaction.
✅ Token Utility Breakdown
Paying for Compute
Users use GPUAI tokens to pay for GPU time and workload execution
Staking for Job Eligibility
Node operators stake tokens to be eligible for higher-value tasks
Contributor Rewards
GPU providers earn tokens based on task success, uptime, and performance
Reputation Boosting
Long-term stakers improve their node’s trust score in the protocol
Governance Participation
Token holders vote on key proposals, reward rates, and roadmap items
🎁 7.2 Benefits of Holding GPUAI
GPUAI tokens offer real utility and long-term value to users, contributors, and investors.
🔄 Discounted Compute – Frequent users get reduced rates based on token holding
🚀 Priority Task Queue – Token holders gain faster access to GPU resources
🗳 Governance Power – Influence protocol upgrades, treasury allocations, emissions
💰 Yield Opportunities – Stake tokens to earn bonus rewards and unlock advanced features
🌐 Early Ecosystem Access – Be first to join closed betas, testnets, and partner programs
🔁 7.3 Token Lifecycle
Lifecycle Summary:
User buys GPUAI token
Submits AI job and pays with token
Job is scheduled by the protocol
Contributors execute the job
Results are verified on-chain
GPU contributors receive token rewards
This flow ensures transparency, fairness, and security — with zero centralized middlemen.

⏳ 7.5 Emission Schedule (2025–2028)
The GPUAI token follows a phased release strategy focused on network health and decentralization:
Genesis Phase
Q2–Q4 2025
Testnet rewards, early contributor bootstrapping
Expansion
2026–2027
Full mainnet utility, DAO voting, node scaling
Stabilization
2028 onwards
Emission tapering, ecosystem maturity, DAO-led governance
Emission slows over time to support sustainable value and token utility, avoiding long-term inflation.
🧠 7.6 Value Proposition for Holders
Holding GPUAI tokens means you’re invested in the future of decentralized compute:
You're rewarded for helping scale access to AI
You influence governance decisions via voting
You benefit from increasing protocol usage
You can access premium compute resources faster and cheaper
You gain early access to upcoming features and testnets
GPUAI is not just a utility token — it’s a stake in the protocol's growth, coordination, and long-term success.
