$VIRAL is the utility token that powers the ViralMind ecosystem, facilitating:
✅ AI training incentives – Contributors earn $VIRAL for submitting AI training demonstrations.
✅ Gym funding – Businesses and individuals use $VIRAL to fund Training Pools for AI training.
✅ AI model monetization – Gym owners and contributors can profit from AI advancements.
✅ Staking & governance (future feature) – $VIRAL holders will participate in voting on AI development priorities.
📌 Example: A Web3 project funds a Gym with $100,000 in $VIRAL to train an AI-powered DeFi trading assistant.
$VIRAL was fair-launched on Pump.fun, ensuring no VC or insider allocations.
The team has locked 3.41% of the total supply using Streamflow until 2026 for transparency.
The ViralMind team self-funded a $50K treasury to build a strong token position and sustain Training Pool incentives.
📌
Training Pools fund AI development by rewarding contributors for submitting AI training demonstrations.
Gym owners deposit $VIRAL (or USDC) into a Training Pool.
Contributors earn from the pool by submitting high-quality AI demonstrations.
Dynamic pricing adjusts payouts based on demonstration quality and market demand.
📌 Example: A Training Pool offers $0.20 per AI demonstration → A high-quality submission earns $0.17, while a lower-quality one earns less or nothing.
$VIRAL’s design ensures continuous buy pressure through:
✅ Gym funding: Businesses and projects must purchase $VIRAL to train AI models.
✅ USDC conversions: Non-crypto users can pay in USDC, which auto-buys $VIRAL for Training Pools.
✅ AI model licensing: Gym owners can sell access to trained AI models, increasing $VIRAL adoption.
✅ Staking (future): Long-term $VIRAL holders earn rewards and governance power.
📌 Example: An enterprise spends $50,000 in USDC on AI training, which buys and distributes $VIRAL to contributors.
✅ Submitting AI training demonstrations – Earn based on demonstration quality.
✅ Training high-demand AI skills – More advanced skills receive higher payouts.
✅ Fine-tuning AI models in The Forge – Contributors get priority access to premium reward pools.
✅ Future staking & governance rewards – Earn passive incentives for holding $VIRAL.
📌 Example: A contributor records 100 high-quality AI demonstrations and earns $200 in $VIRAL.
Yes. While $VIRAL is the primary currency, The Forge will support native token pools from partner projects.
✅ Projects can fund AI training in their own tokens.
✅ ViralMind will offer cross-token staking & incentive pools.
📌 Example: A DeFi protocol funds an AI trading Gym using its governance token, rewarding contributors in their ecosystem.
Payouts for AI demonstrations are denominated in USDC and converted into $VIRAL dynamically.
Gym owners can increase rewards to attract more AI trainers.
If low-quality submissions occur, funds return to the Training Pool, maintaining efficiency.
📌 Example: A Gym offering $0.20 per task isn’t receiving enough submissions → It raises the bid to $0.30 to attract better contributors.
No, but earnings depend on demonstration quality, training demand, and pool funding.
Higher-quality AI demonstrations receive higher payouts.
Rare or advanced AI training tasks pay more than basic tasks.
📌 Example: Training an AI to manage complex accounting workflows pays more than training an AI to send emails.
🚀 Staking mechanisms will launch in future updates.
Long-term holders will earn rewards.
Governance staking will allow voting on AI priorities.
AI research grants will be funded by the staking pool.
📌 Example: Staking 50,000 $VIRAL may give governance rights over The Forge’s AI development roadmap.
ViralMind’s token economy is designed for long-term sustainability through:
✅ Constant AI training demand → Businesses buy $VIRAL to fund AI development.
✅ Efficient Training Pools → Unused funds from bad demonstrations return to pools.
✅ Enterprise partnerships → ViralMind works with companies that deploy AI models at scale, increasing token demand.
📌 Example: As more companies train AI models on ViralMind, the demand for $VIRAL increases, ensuring a sustainable token economy.
If a contributor submits a low-quality AI demonstration, part of the reward is returned to the Training Pool.
Ensures training efficiency by funding only high-quality AI contributions.
Prevents unnecessary token inflation from low-effort submissions.
📌 Example: A Training Pool funds 10,000 demonstrations, but only 8,000 are high-quality → The remaining $VIRAL returns to the pool for future training.
While $VIRAL has no forced burn mechanism, its economic model naturally limits supply growth:
Staking will lock up supply, reducing market circulation.
Gyms must continuously purchase $VIRAL, creating demand.
Unused Training Pool funds remain locked until AI training occurs.
📌 Example: As more AI models are deployed, $VIRAL becomes increasingly scarce, driving long-term value.
