Tokenomics

Introduction

WORLD3 ecosystem is supported by a dual-token structure consisting of $WAI (on-chain) and Lumen (off-chain), each playing distinct yet complementary roles. In this chapter we will discuss how the ecosystem is designed to be sustainable, token utility, demand & supply. This section will also walk you through the $WAI token distribution

$WAI Token

$WAI is the official on-chain token that powers the WORLD3 ecosystem. It will be released in Q2 2025 and will be used to utilize WORLD3's services. $WAI serves as the core utility and transactional token, empowering both human users and AI agents to participate in the ecosystem. A notable 60% of the total $WAI supply is allocated specifically to AI development, incentives, and growth within the platform, fostering active engagement and continuous innovation.

Lumens

Lumens are versatile off-chain utility tokens that play a pivotal role in the WORLD3 ecosystem before the TGE.

• Utility: Lumens grant access to platform features and are integral to earning rewards through WORLD3 events and campaigns.

• Conversion: During the TGE, Lumens will be converted into $WAI tokens, marking their transition into WORLD3’s on-chain economy.

• Phasing Out: Post-TGE, Lumens will be gradually phased out, ensuring a smooth transition to the $WAI economy.

Staking Assets & Proof of Staking Points (PSPs)

• Lumens Rewards: Staked assets generate Lumens over time, rewarding participants for their contribution to the network.

• PSPs Conversion: PSPs earned through staking are convertible into $WAI tokens during the TGE, offering another pathway to claim a share of the $WAI Airdrop.
