Token Utilities & Network Roles
💠 Token Utilities & Network Roles
The SZNP token is not just a medium of exchange — it’s the fuel that powers coordination, incentivization, and security across the AI + DePIN + Storage network. Designed for real-world utility, the token aligns contributors, node operators, developers, and governance participants within the SZNP ecosystem.
🛠 Core Utilities of the SZNP Token
Storage Payments Users and dApps pay in $SZNP to store and retrieve data from the decentralized network — replacing traditional cloud costs with transparent, programmable on-chain fees.
Node Staking & Collateral Node operators stake $SZNP to earn the right to store data, serve retrievals, and participate in AI indexing jobs. Slashing mechanisms ensure performance and security.
AI Task Incentives $SZNP is used to reward AI agents that perform tasks like data classification, semantic tagging, anomaly detection, and real-time inference routing.
Governance Power Token holders can vote on protocol upgrades, SSOP tuning parameters, ecosystem grants, and permission framework evolution via DAO-based governance.
🌐 Roles in the SZNP Ecosystem
Users / Clients

AI Agents / Oracles
Earn $SZNP by enriching data with intelligent insights
Governance Members
Propose/vote on changes, fund R&D, and upgrade logic
DePIN Devices
Submit data and earn micropayments in $SZNP
🔁 Long-Term Value Loops
SZNP employs a circular economy model:
Revenue from users flows to nodes and AI agents
Nodes restake a portion of earnings to stay active
Governance redistributes funds to strategic initiatives
Protocol fees are partially burned or allocated to stability reserves
This cycle ensures utility-driven demand, organic token flow, and ecosystem sustainability.
$SZNP is the connective tissue of a decentralized intelligence layer — not just storing the future, but powering the minds that use it.
