Key Coin Tokenomics
1:1 pegged to daily power generation — generalized currency
Pegging Formula
| Variable | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Economic value multiplier | |
| Daily AI compute network economic value (USD) | |
| Total daily power generation cost |
Example: If daily generation is 1 billion kWh and AI output value is 0.3× generation cost → → 1.3 billion KEY minted that day.
Issuance Process — Proof-of-Generation
Circulation Loop
Token Distribution
| Category | Share | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Direct Electricity Offset | 70% | Auto-deducted for users/nodes, covering ~70% of AI compute costs |
| Contributor Reward Pool | 30% | AI-assessed distribution to creators and community participants |
Ecosystem Development Fund (20% of total supply)
| Sub-fund | Share of Fund | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Creator Fund | 35% | Artists, designers, content producers |
| Developer Fund | 25% | Protocol contributors, DApp developers |
| Clean Energy Fund | 20% | Clean energy node deployment subsidies |
| Education Fund | 12% | Universal basic education content |
| Community Fund | 8% | Community organizers, translators, evangelists |
Inflation Control
⚡ Real Generation Hard Cap
Daily issuance strictly constrained by verified generation data. Physical laws guarantee monetary discipline.
🔥 Auto-Burn Mechanism
Key Coin partially burned during electricity offset, naturally reducing circulating supply and maintaining long-term scarcity.
🔒 Long-Term Locking Reduces Circulation
Governance voting requires 2+ year lock-up, pulling large amounts of KEY out of circulation and lowering inflation pressure.
On-Chain Data
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Total Supply | ~21,474,836 KEY |
| Base Multiplier | 1.0 |
| Last Mint Day | Day 20582 |
| Locked KEY | 100 KEY (Test) |
