Use · Utility
Useful compute for real workloads.
Explore the intended workloads: research, inference, simulation, and evidence validation. These describe planned network capabilities.
Network utility
What the network is for
- 01
Verifiable compute
Applications get work performed by participants they did not have to trust individually.
- 02
Independent validation
A second, adversarial opinion is part of the product rather than an afterthought.
- 03
Reusable provenance
A result keeps its history, so it can be audited, scored and defended later.
- 04
Permissioned context
Accepted work compounds into Cortex context instead of being recomputed endlessly.
- 05
Capacity coordination
Idle compute can be directed at bounded, specified, useful work.
- 06
Accountability record
Participant behaviour is attributable over time, including failures.
Explicitly excluded
Network utility and token mechanics
Network capabilities and any future token functionality are separate. No token mechanics are active today.
Participation creates no right to future Scalar tokens, allocations or rewards. No token is offered, sold or distributed. Testnet state may be reset.
