ALIENX Chain Fundamentals
ALIENX Chain is the only high-performance staking public chain driven by AI nodes. The project is jointly launched by AlienSwap, Offchain Labs, and Caldera. ALIENX plays a crucial role in the underlying infrastructure of the blockchain by integrating decentralized nodes and AI technology to form AI Node nodes.
Funding and Team
ALIENX has completed two rounds of funding totaling $17 million, with a valuation of $200 million. Major investment institutions include OKX Ventures, C²Ventures, Next Leader Capital, and other top-tier organizations. Project team members come from top internet companies such as Google, as well as prestigious universities like New York University, Nanyang Technological University, and the University of Hong Kong.
AI Node
The total number of AI Nodes on ALIENX Chain is 50,000, deployed on Arbitrum. Participants need to purchase a license to run nodes to participate in the ALIENX Chain network. The node price will increase with market purchases and tier upgrades, meaning the earlier the purchase, the lower the price. AI Nodes can participate in observing and maintaining ALIENX nodes. In the event of network anomalies, they can issue warnings and use backup solutions to resolve issues. Through AI Nodes, ALIENX can deeply integrate DApps with AI to provide users with a better experience.
AI Nodes enhance network security and intelligence, achieving high performance for blockchain networks to meet the needs of large-scale applications such as NFTs and blockchain games. AI Nodes are open for community operation, increasing the decentralization of ALIENX. Users can purchase and operate AI Nodes to receive token incentives.
AIX
AIX is the token of ALIENX Chain, with 40% of the tokens allocated to nodes over 5 years. Additionally, tokens will be allocated for native staking rewards, user airdrops, and income sharing from gas fees (activated 180 days after the mainnet launch).
The operating cost of AI Nodes is very low, and the operation is simple. Ordinary cloud servers or personal computers only need to support the Chrome browser to install and run. Running nodes can receive a 40% token reward, and later, node trading and transfer functions will be opened.
Node Sale Coming Soon
AI Node nodes will be sold in the near future, mainly divided into whitelist and public sales. Whitelisted participants can purchase at a discounted price, using ETH or SOL for participation.
Whitelist sale time: April 12th, 18:00
Public sale time: April 14th, 18:00
Node mainnet launch time: June 2024
Node prices: Determined by gradients, with a total of 30 tiers
Specific prices are as shown in the image below:
According to the official prices, as the number of nodes sold increases, the price also continues to rise. For lower-tier users, there are purchase limitations as follows:
Tiers 1-2: Maximum limit of 2 nodes per wallet
Tiers 3-4: Maximum limit of 4 nodes per wallet
Tiers 5-6: Maximum limit of 10 nodes per wallet
Tiers 7-8: Maximum limit of 20 nodes per wallet
Tiers 9-10: Maximum limit of 40 nodes per wallet
There are no purchase limits for remaining tiers, meaning earlier purchases have cost advantages.
How to Obtain Whitelist Qualification
There are four main ways to obtain AI Node whitelist qualification:
The top 1000 on the vAIX leaderboard automatically receive whitelist qualification, while the top 5000 can get a 5% discount on node purchases.
The official randomly selects 10 users to receive a whitelist for free.
Obtain qualification through invitation code sharing.
Holding an Alienverse Genesis Pass grants a Tier 3 whitelist, and holding 3 ALIENX Explorer Passes grants a Tier 4 whitelist.
Whitelist Application Tutorial:
Open the website and log in using Metamask. Click on the "Apply for Whitelist" link, follow the instructions to post a tweet, and wait for the official whitelist results.
Additionally, AlienX is conducting activities with OKX Wallet, mainly involving social tasks such as Twitter follow and retweet, giving away a total of 550 AI node whitelists from April 4th to April 9th.
Node Reservation Benefits
For users interested in purchasing AI Node nodes, participating in early reservations is a good choice. Participants only need to pay 0.01 ETH or 0.15 SOL to lock in the purchase of nodes in advance. By combining reservations with the whitelist, more benefits can be obtained. The main benefits of node reservations are:
Early reservations allow for double presale rewards for subsequent node purchases.
If a purchase is not made or is abandoned, the deposit will be 100% refunded without incurring additional costs.
Addresses participating in the presale will be randomly allocated 500 Tier 4 and 500 Tier 5 whitelists.
The reservation period is from April 4th to April 8th, 24:00 (UTC+8). Payments must be made using personal wallets and cannot be made through centralized exchanges. As seen on the website, over 10,000 wallets have already participated in the reservation process.
Reservation Participation Tutorial:
Open the node reservation website and log in using the Metamask wallet.
Click "GO NOW" on the AI Node node reservation link on the right side of the webpage and complete the transfer using your own wallet.
Since the presale deposit can be 100% refunded, there is virtually no cost involved. For users planning to purchase nodes, it is highly recommended to use the presale deposit to lock in discounted prices. Over 10,000 wallets have already participated in the reservation process, indicating a strong community interest in node reservations.
Earnings Estimation
ALIENX has secured $17 million in funding from institutions such as OKX. Node earnings are closely related to the number of nodes sold. In other words, the more nodes sold, the higher the valuation of ALIENX Chain, and the lower the individual node's yield, and vice versa.
Assuming all nodes are sold, the project's valuation could conservatively reach over $1 billion. The total token supply is not disclosed, but we know that 40% of the tokens will be allocated to AI nodes over 5 years, totaling $400 million in AIX tokens.
With 50,000 AI nodes, each node can receive approximately 8,000 units of token rewards. The price of each node ranges from 0.1 ETH to 1.86 ETH. Considering the reservation discounts, the cost ranges from 300 to 6200 units. Even at the highest cost, running a node still yields a certain profit, with the lowest cost yielding a 26x return.
If only half of the nodes (25,000) are sold, the conservative valuation could exceed $500 million, with total node rewards of over $200 million. At this point, each node's token reward is 8,000 units, and the highest node price is 0.56 ETH, reaching Tier 11, with a minimum yield of 4.8x.
In addition to block rewards, nodes also include gas income, which can affect the token's value. This aspect has not been factored into the calculations. The above data is a conservative estimate and represents fully circulated valuation. Based on the mechanism and ecosystem development, there is a high likelihood of a higher project valuation, resulting in even higher actual returns.
Conclusion
ALIENX's AI nodes play a crucial role in blockchain infrastructure and represent an important attempt at underlying innovation. AI nodes also have numerous applications in integrating DApps and blockchain games, making them in high demand in the market.
With a total of 50,000 AI node sales, more project dividends can be distributed to retail participants, further decentralizing ALIENX and strengthening the network's security, stability, and resilience. The participation of over 10,000 wallets in node reservations reflects a certain level of market recognition for ALIENX!
In the future, AI will be a significant driving force in the technology and crypto markets. By integrating the concept of AI, ALIENX's experience will be at the forefront of innovation, leading the deep integration of the crypto market and AI!
