Economic Opportunity

Revenue Model

Tashi's coordination infrastructure generates real revenue. Applications pay for network services, and that revenue flows to operators who provide infrastructure.

Revenue Split

Recipient	Share	Components
Resource Node Operators	60%	30% job completions, 10% availability, 20% bonuses
Foundation	30%	Operations, development, ecosystem
Orchestrator Operators	10%	Coordination infrastructure

This isn't token emission. It's revenue sharing from actual usage.

How Earnings Work

Reward Points

Operators earn Reward Points backed by USD at a 100:1 ratio (100 Reward Points = $1 USD).

Reward Points accumulate from:

Source	Share	Basis
Job completions	30%	Pro rata by successful jobs
Availability	10%	Pro rata by uptime check-ins
Incentive bonuses	20%	Network-healthy behaviors

Converting to $TASHI

Operators convert Reward Points to $TASHI tokens to withdraw value from the network. This conversion:

• Creates sustainable token demand as network usage grows

• Allows operators to choose when to exit positions

• Provides liquidity through market mechanisms

Staking Requirements

Minimum Stake

Each Resource Node requires 10,000 $TASHI staked to participate.

This stake:

• Signals commitment to the network

• Enables reputation-based slashing for poor performance

• Aligns operator incentives with network health

• No platform fees on staking

Excess Staking

Operators can stake more than the minimum:

• Excess stake divides evenly across bonded nodes

• Higher stake improves job selection odds

• Diminishing returns multiplier against reputation

Example: An operator with 50,000 $TASHI and 2 registered nodes has both bonded at 25,000 each, giving better selection odds than the minimum 10,000.

Incentive Mechanisms

Twenty percent of operator revenue funds incentive bonuses that reward network-healthy behavior:

Network Loyalty Bonus (Cash Back)

When operators (supply) become consumers (demand), they create economic turns within the system and increase the value of the network as a whole. We reward this with a cash-back model.

Operators who spend Reward Points on additional coordination services receive bonus multipliers, effectively getting cash back on their network spending. This encourages the economic flywheel:

• Supply becomes demand

• More economic activity within the network

• Increased network value for all participants

Staking Bonus

Operators who convert Reward Points to $TASHI and stake (rather than immediately selling) receive conversion bonuses. This:

• Increases circulating stake

• Reduces sell pressure

• Rewards long-term alignment

Peak Demand Bonus

Jobs are tagged as "peak" when demand in a region is high for a specific job type. Operators who handle peak jobs receive premium rates. This:

• Incentivizes global coverage

• Rewards capacity in underserved regions

• Encourages demand spike response

Competitive Dynamics

Job assignment uses multi-factor scoring:

Factor	Weight	Impact
Reputation	Primary	Higher reputation = more jobs
Geographic proximity	Critical for tunneling	Local operators preferred
Current capacity	Secondary	Available nodes get assignments
Stake amount	Secondary	Higher stake signals commitment
Historical performance	Secondary	Track record matters

This creates a competitive market:

• Better infrastructure → higher reputation → more jobs → higher earnings

• Operators compete on quality, not just presence

Pooled Staking

Don't want to run infrastructure? You can still participate:

• Stake $TASHI without registering nodes

• Stake enters a pool that allocates to high-reputation unbonded nodes

• Allocation prioritizes nodes with strongest track records

• Pool participants earn rewards when supported nodes complete jobs

This enables passive participation for token holders who prefer not to operate infrastructure.

Addressable Market

The market opportunity is substantial:

Vertical	Current Spend	Coordination Opportunity
Gaming servers	$5B+ annually	50%+ cost reduction possible
Robotics coordination	Growing 25-30% annually	Cross-operator coordination
AI agent networks	Emerging market	Trillions of agents projected
Industrial IoT	Billions in infrastructure	Cross-boundary coordination

As coordination volume grows, operator revenue scales proportionally.

Getting Started

1. Acquire $TASHI: Minimum 10,000 tokens for staking

2. Set up infrastructure: See Node Specifications

3. Register your node: Follow Installation Guide

4. Build reputation: Maintain high uptime, complete jobs successfully

5. Scale operations: Add nodes as demand and reputation grow
