Tokenomics

Lightchain AI's tokenomics is designed to ensure sustainability, equitable distribution, and long-term value for its ecosystem participants.

Total Supply

The total supply of LCAI tokens is capped at 1,000,000,000 LCAI.


Token Allocation

1. Liquidity Pool: 98%

  • Allocation: 980,000,000 LCAI

  • Ensures market liquidity to facilitate seamless transactions and minimize slippage across decentralized exchanges.

2. Marketing and Partnerships: 2%

  • Allocation: 20,000,000 LCAI

  • Dedicated to promoting the platform, acquiring partnerships, and increasing global awareness of Lightchain AI.


Economic Design

Inflation Control

  • Initial Rewards: Early contributors receive higher rewards to stimulate network activity.

  • Deflationary Mechanisms: A portion of transaction fees and staking rewards will be burned periodically to manage supply and promote scarcity.

Dynamic Pricing

  • Computational gas fees for using the Artificial Intelligence Virtual Machine (AIVM) are calculated dynamically, ensuring equitable resource utilization and reducing congestion.


Token Utility

  1. Payments for AI Tasks:

    • Businesses and individuals use LCAI tokens to pay for AI services like model training and inference through the Artificial Intelligence Virtual Machine (AIVM).

  2. Staking for Governance:

    • LCAI tokens can be staked to participate in the platform's decentralized governance, enabling token holders to vote on protocol updates and ecosystem developments.

  3. Premium Features:

    • Developers and enterprises can unlock premium features within the AIVM, such as enhanced privacy tools, faster task execution, and advanced computational resources, by staking LCAI.


Sustainability and Scalability

Lightchain AI employs an adaptive economic model to ensure that the ecosystem continues to thrive:

  • Long-Term Incentives: Rewards are dynamically adjusted based on network activity and demand.

  • Ecosystem Growth Fund: Supports developer grants, marketing, and community-building efforts.


This tokenomics model ensures that Lightchain AI remains a sustainable, secure, and user-focused platform, aligning the incentives of all participants for mutual growth and success.
