Dual-token economy

$ASHAO turns network usage into ownership.

ashao is run by people sharing their compute, not a data center. The money the network earns doesn't vanish into a company — it lands in a transparent treasury and gets returned to the people who hold and power the protocol.

Backed by real revenue

Every paid inference and image settles into a USDC treasury — value the token can actually point to.

Deflation by design

Half of revenue buys $ASHAO on the open market and burns it, tightening supply as usage grows.

Pays the people running it

The other half streams to stakers, and stakers earn a larger cut of every job their hardware completes.

Split is fixed at 50% buyback & burn / 50% staking rewards. Total supply 1,000M $ASHAO.

Where the money goes

One flow, no discretion. Revenue is denominated in USDC so the treasury can't be inflated by the token it supports.

Network revenue

Pro & Max inference + image credits, paid by users

On-chain, auditable, denominated in stablecoins

Buyback & burn
50%

Treasury buys $ASHAO on the open market and destroys it. Fewer tokens, same network.

Staking rewards
50%

Streamed to stakers in proportion to what they stake. Your share compounds as usage climbs.

Stake-to-work boost

Staking isn't just passive yield. Run a worker with $ASHAO staked and your slice of every job you complete jumps — aligning the people holding the token with the people powering it.
