6. The $MAI Token
6.1 Design Philosophy
$MAI is the core token of the protocol. It is earned by using the platform and plays a central role in how rewards are distributed and how the system will eventually be governed. It is not sold through a private sale or pre-mine. Instead, it is allocated to those who participate—by playing, staking, providing liquidity, or contributing to the ecosystem.
6.2 Token Utility
Claim rewards through the Vault
Participate in governance (planned)
Receive a share of protocol fees
Vote on parameters and market additions (future)
6.3 Distribution
$MAI will be distributed entirely through protocol activity. There are no VC allocations, pre-sales, or centralized control over supply. Distribution will occur through:
Rewards for gameplay and prediction markets
Staking-based emissions
Liquidity incentives
Grants and community programs
Emissions are structured around usage, with fixed caps and periodic reviews to ensure long-term sustainability.
