Token Architecture and Value System

The system consists of two distinct tokens: $PLART for governance and value accrual, and Paper (PlayArts' Credit) for platform utility. These tokens serve complementary but separate functions and cannot be directly exchanged with each other, ensuring clear separation of governance and utility aspects of the platform.

$PLART tokens represent ownership and governance rights within the PlayArts ecosystem. Token holders participate in crucial governance decisions through a sophisticated voting mechanism and receive a share of platform fees through various value accrual mechanisms. The fixed supply and carefully designed distribution schedule of $PLART tokens ensure long-term value alignment between token holders and platform success.

Paper, the platform's utility credit, maintains a stable value of $0.01 and facilitates all platform operations and content creation activities. Users can acquire Paper through multiple channels:

1. Daily Rewards: Three free credits upon daily login

2. Loyalty Bonus: Five additional credits for five consecutive days of platform engagement

3. Direct Purchase: Standard rate of $1 per Paper

4. Volume Purchases: Discounted rates for bulk purchases

   • 10 Paper for $9

   • 100 Paper for $79

5. Subscription Model: 50 Paper monthly for $39

6. $PLART Holder Discount: 20% discount on Paper purchases when paid with $ARTS tokens

The credits from daily rewards and loyalty bonuses expire after five days, encouraging regular platform engagement while preventing credit accumulation. All other purchased credits remain valid indefinitely.

This dual-token architecture solves several critical challenges in AI platform economics:

Market Volatility Protection: By separating volatile governance tokens ($PLART) from stable utility credits (Paper), we ensure platform usability remains unaffected by market fluctuations. This enables consistent pricing for platform services and predictable costs for users.

Flexible Pricing Strategy: The Paper credit system enables sophisticated pricing models for different user segments, from casual users benefiting from daily rewards to power users leveraging subscription discounts. This flexibility ensures platform accessibility while maximizing value for committed participants.

Economic Sustainability: The non-interchangeable nature of the tokens creates distinct value flows that support long-term platform sustainability. Platform fees collected in Paper maintain stable operational funding, while $PLART value accrual mechanisms reward long-term stakeholders.

Value Capture Optimization: By preventing direct token interchangeability, the system ensures each token effectively serves its intended purpose. $PLART captures long-term value appreciation from platform growth, while Paper maintains stable utility value for platform operations.

Platform Usage Analytics: The separation of tokens enables clear tracking of platform usage (through Paper) distinct from investment and governance participation (through $PLART), providing valuable insights for platform development.

This dual-token architecture represents a fundamental innovation in AI platform economics, creating a sustainable foundation for long-term ecosystem growth while ensuring fair value distribution among all participants. The careful separation of governance and utility functions, combined with sophisticated acquisition and usage mechanisms, enables PlayArts to maintain operational efficiency while fostering long-term value alignment among all users and investors.

  • Betting: 1.5-2.5% variable fee

  • AI Agent Usage: Service-dependent fees

  • GPU Node Operations: 15% operational fee

• Distribution

  • Treasury: 40% for platform development and maintenance

  • Insurance Pool: 20% for ecosystem stability

  • Rewards Pool: 30% for participant incentives

  • Operations: 10% for daily platform management

User Perspective on Fees

From the user's perspective, the fee structure is designed to be transparent and reward-oriented:
