GAIB Economy
The GAIB economy: AID, sAID and $GAIB
GAIB sits at the intersection of AI infrastructure financing and crypto yield innovation. By combining a fully U.S. treasury backed AI synthetic dollar (AID), a reward-bearing token (sAID), and a native token ($GAIB), GAIB creates a circular, self-reinforcing ecosystem. Borrowers access GPU financing, investors earn real world rewards, and tokenholders share the growth of the network.

Introducing AID: The AI Dollar
GAIB introduces AID, a synthetic dollar fully backed by the U.S. Treasuries and other stable assets. Designed to be the base currency of the AI economy, AID combines the stability of traditional finance with the composability of DeFi.
- Simple, stable, interoperable: AID maintains a close peg of $1.00 and is accepted across leading DeFi protocols. 
- Gateway to AI yields: While AID itself is non-yielding, staking it mints sAID, giving holders access to real yield from GAIB’s portfolio of GPU & Robotics financing. 
- Growth currency for the ecosystem: By integrating with trading, lending, and liquidity platforms, AID becomes the foundation for GAIB’s role in the broader crypto x AI economy. 
sAID: Staked AID and Real AI Yield
Staking AID creates sAID, a liquid receipt token representing a share of the tokenized AI infrastructure vault.
- Index-like exposure: sAID tracks the Net Asset Value (NAV) of a diversified portfolio of AI infrastructure assets including compute and robotics, supported by an additional stable reserve. 
- Automatic value accrual: As rewards and values accrue and flow back into the vault, the sAID:AID exchange rate rises, delivering seamless value creation to holders without any extra steps. 
- Flexible liquidity: sAID can be unstaked through GAIB’s cyclical withdrawal system or traded instantly on secondary markets, giving users the choice between orderly exits or fast liquidity. 
In short: hold AID for stability while participating in DeFi, stake for sAID to unlock real AI yield.
The Role of $GAIB
The $GAIB token powers governance, network security, and capital coordination across the GAIB ecosystem. It aligns validators, users, and partners through integrated utility mechanisms.
- Governance & Participation: Lock $GAIB into ve-tokens to vote on asset approvals, chain deployments, and protocol parameters. 
- Network Security & Validation: Stake or restake $GAIB to secure the GAIB AVS and validator network; misconduct incurs slashing. 
- Ecosystem Access: Stakers and veGAIB voters gain priority in GPU, robotics, and AID/sAID allocations and rewards. 
- Economic Incentives & Rewards: Earn protocol-funded rewards for active contribution; incentives scale with actual usage and participation. 
GAIB’s Economic Model
GAIB employs a simple & sustainable economic model:
- Tokenization Fee: 1.00%, paid upfront for asset origination & structuring., 
- Protocol Fee: 20% of AI infrastructure assets rewards, to the GAIB Treasury and Protocol Reserve, with future distribution to $GAIB stakers. 
- Other DeFi fees 
This design ensures fees both sustain the protocol and reward active participation.
