IAM Token

The economic layer of verified humanity.

// PROTOCOL FEE

Every verification generates protocol revenue.

~0.005 SOL

Every verification deposits a small protocol fee into an on-chain treasury PDA. The fee is configurable by the protocol admin and auditable by anyone on Solana Explorer.

Users pay a small fee to prove they're human. Integrators read on-chain state for free. Bot farms pay real money at scale.

// REVENUE FLYWHEEL

Verification volume drives token value.

1

User verifies

User pays ~0.005 SOL protocol fee per verification. The fee is included in the same transaction as the ZK proof—one signature, one prompt.

2

Treasury collects

Fees accumulate in the protocol treasury PDA on-chain. Transparent, auditable, no off-chain billing.

3

Treasury buys IAM

Protocol revenue is used to purchase IAM tokens on the open market, creating sustained buy pressure proportional to verification volume.

4

Validators earn

IAM tokens are distributed as staking rewards to validators who run the server-side validation service, incentivizing honest and high-quality validation.

5

Security improves

More validators and better validation attract more integrations, driving more verifications and more revenue. The flywheel compounds.

Protocol revenue scales linearly with verification volume.

// TOKEN UTILITY

Stake. Govern. Validate.

Validator Staking

Stake IAM to run a validation node in the server-side verification network. Staked validators earn protocol fees proportional to their stake and performance.

Governance

Vote on protocol parameters: verification fee amount, Trust Score formula weights, threshold values, treasury allocation. One token, one vote.

Capacity Tiers

Large integrators can stake IAM tokens for priority access and reduced fees, replacing per-verification costs with a staking model at scale.

// LAUNCH

Verified humans only.

MetaDAO or curated community sale

First airdrop exclusively to IAM-verified humans. Your Trust Score determines allocation—the protocol rewards real users, not bot farms.

SPL Token-2022 with Confidential Balances

Supply fixed at genesis. Confidential Balances for private staking.

Revenue-backed from day one

The protocol generates SOL revenue before the token launches. Treasury accumulates real value. The token amplifies the flywheel.
