Tokenomics
$CSA is the native utility token of the C6 AI ecosystem. It serves as the foundational “fuel,” governance tool, and incentive driver that unlocks the network’s full potential. Designed not just as a speculative asset, $CSA is a functional utility token that facilitates real-time computing, community incentives, and decentralized governance.
Network Access & Payments: Participants who deploy smartphone nodes or hardware modules (such as the ByteBox™ device from C6 AI) contribute computing power to the network. In return for their CPU/GPU cycles, bandwidth, and uptime, they earn $CSA tokens. Developers and enterprises that utilize the network’s computing resources will pay with $CSA, creating a closed-loop economy.
Governance Participation: $CSA holders are empowered to vote on network upgrades, incentive structures, hardware rollouts, partnership integrations, and other decisions that shape the ecosystem. This alignment fosters a shared interest in the long-term direction of C6 AI.
Ecosystem Incentives & Grants: The token supports a broad community allocation for rewards, liquidity provision, developer grants, and participation bonuses. This approach enables the network to scale globally, onboard new node operators and developers, and encourage innovation.
Total Supply: 420,000,000 $CSA tokens on the Solana blockchain.
Allocation: 12% for early contributors, 15% for team/advisors (locked for long-term alignment), and 73% for community initiatives (network incentives, staking, liquidity, and community growth).
