# What is $AXGT?

## **AXGT is used for:**

* Reward **verified data and research contributions**
* **DAO membership and access control**
* **GPU infrastructure and resource allocation**
* Access to powerful **compute and data systems**
* Enable **tokenized GPU usage and compute credits**
* **Scores validity of data**

AXGT is not a passive asset. It is a **functional token tied to real usage**.

### $AXGT as DAO Membership

Holding AXGT establishes membership in AxonDAO.

Members gain:

* Access to token-gated DAO environments
* Participation in governance and infrastructure decisions
* Eligibility to submit and vote on research and compute proposals
* <https://forms.gle/JyddqbCcEeA2GkUu8>&#x20;
* Access to private working groups and protocol updates

AXGT defines **who can participate** in AxonDAO’s economic and decision-making layers.

### $AXGT and GPU Infrastructure

AXGT plays a central role in AxonDAO’s GPU-native infrastructure.

It is used to:

* Access high-performance GPU clusters
* Reserve and schedule compute time
* Participate in tokenized GPU usage models
* Govern pricing, availability, and deployment of new GPU capacity

This creates a transparent, market-driven system for compute allocation.

### $AXGT and Data Monetization

AXGT enables contributors to earn rewards for **verified, consent-based data participation**.

Contributors may:

* Submit approved biometric, genomic, voice, or experimental data
* Earn AXGT when data is used in validated research workflows
* Participate in downstream scientific IP creation

Data remains anonymized and handled through secure, compliant systems.

### Security and Access Control

AXGT underpins access control across AxonDAO’s infrastructure.

Security principles include:

* Token-gated permissions for compute and data access
* DAO-approved multisig custody and contract controls
* Separation of identity, compute, and data layers
* Privacy-preserving data handling aligned with regulated standards

AXGT helps ensure that only authorized participants interact with sensitive systems.

### Governance and Protocol Evolution

AXGT holders govern:

* GPU procurement and infrastructure expansion
* Compute pricing and access policies
* Data usage and monetization standards
* Treasury and research fund allocation

Protocol changes and new utilities are introduced through **DAO governance**, not centralized control.

### What $AXGT Is Not

To be explicit:

* $AXGT is **not equity**
* $AXGT is **not a profit-sharing instrument**
* $AXGT is **not guaranteed income or yield**

AXGT is a **utility and governance token** used to participate in AxonDAO.

***$AXGT is the membership and governance token that powers AxonDAO’s secure GPU infrastructure, tokenized compute access, and data-driven scientific research ecosystem.***
