Functional Overview

The $DNAi token is the native protocol asset of the DNAi platform, designed to align human health data contribution with long-term network value creation.

Rather than maximizing short-term liquidity or speculative incentives, DNAi’s token economy is built around three core principles:

1. Fair Launch & Contribution-Based Distribution

$DNAi follows a strict fair launch model.

  • 70% of total supply is reserved for health data contribution and released algorithmically through the network’s data mining mechanism.

  • There is no pre-mint, no private mining, and no privileged access.

  • Token distribution is governed entirely by on-chain rules tied to verified contribution.

This ensures that the primary value of the network accrues to those who actively participate in building the global health data commons.

2. Long-Term Alignment with Network Builders

All non-mining allocations are designed to reinforce long-term commitment rather than short-term extraction.

  • Early supporters, core contributors, and advisors are subject to extended lock-up and linear vesting schedules.

  • Incentives are structured to bind stakeholders to the multi-year development of the protocol, ecosystem, and real-world adoption.

This approach prioritizes durability, credibility, and institutional trust over short-term liquidity events.

3. Sustainable Scarcity & Deflationary Dynamics

$DNAi incorporates multiple mechanisms to support long-term scarcity and economic sustainability:

  • Algorithmic emission decay reduces annual issuance over time.

  • Protocol-level fee mechanisms may introduce token burn or sink dynamics as usage grows.

  • Unclaimed rewards remain non-circulating, further limiting effective supply.

Together, these mechanisms ensure that network growth strengthens—not dilutes—the economic foundation of the protocol.
