The Vision

      Every block rewards the single best prompt on earth.

      The winner is minted as a royalty-bearing NFT forever.

      The chain gets smarter every day — and pays the creators in perpetuity.

PromptChain is the first blockchain where prompts are infrastructure.

Every API call to use a winning prompt pays a royalty to its creator. Forever. Automatically.

We combine Yuma consensus (battle-tested at $3B scale in Bittensor) with zero-knowledge proof royalties and EIP-1559-style burns to create the hardest money in AI.

The Problem

Prompt engineers have no ownership: Create a viral jailbreak or best-in-class system prompt? It gets copied everywhere with zero attribution or revenue.
No way to verify private usage: Companies use your prompts internally. You get nothing.
Quality is invisible: The best prompts are buried in Discord servers and Reddit threads.
Mining is extractive: Bitcoin miners consume terawatts proving useless hashes. AI companies burn billions on compute. Neither creates lasting value.

The Solution

PromptChain makes prompts ownable, tradeable, and revenue-generating.

Daily NFT minting: Best prompt each day → minted as permanent NFT
Perpetual royalties: 5% of all future API usage goes to NFT holder
Zero-knowledge tracking: Private usage tracked via ZK proofs — you earn even from internal corporate use
Fork royalties: Derivatives pay 2.5% to original + 2.5% to fork parent
Burn-to-vote: Burn tokens to boost your prompt's chance of winning
Deflationary supply: 50-70% of all protocol revenue burned permanently

How It Works

Step 1: Submit Prompts

Via Telegram bot, web interface, or API:

Text prompts: Jailbreaks, system prompts, creative writing templates
Image prompts: Midjourney/DALL-E styles, art direction, viral meme templates
Hash commitment: Submit hash first, reveal later (prevents theft)

Step 2: Validation (Yuma Consensus)

Role	Function	Reward
Miners	Submit prompts for consideration	Win NFT + lifetime royalties
Validators	Run AI judges (Claude, GPT-4, Gemini) to score prompts on creativity, utility, safety	15% of block rewards
Jury (Community)	Weighted voting based on token stake	Curation fees from API usage

Scoring criteria:

30% Technical quality (coherence, specificity, structure)
30% Creativity/novelty
20% Utility/reusability
10% Safety (no harmful outputs)
10% Community vote

Step 3: NFT Minting + Revenue Sharing

Winner is minted as ERC-721 NFT with embedded royalty contract:

      Every API call costs ~$0.02 per 1k tokens paid in tokens:

      → 50% Burned (deflationary pressure)

      → 25% to NFT Holder (perpetual creator royalty)

      → 15% to Stakers (real yield)

      → 10% Treasury (grants, development)

Step 4: ZK Proof Royalties

Problem: How do you track usage when companies use prompts privately?

Solution: Zero-knowledge proofs allow enterprises to prove they used a prompt without revealing the input/output.

Company generates ZK proof of prompt usage
Proof is verified on-chain
Royalty is paid automatically without exposing private data

This unlocks a $100M+ corporate licensing market — Fortune 500 companies paying royalties for internal prompt usage.

Tokenomics

Supply Allocation

Allocation	Amount	Details
Block Rewards	50% (500M tokens)	Halving every 4 years, distributed to miners/validators
Treasury	20% (200M tokens)	Grants, partnerships, development, audits
Team	15% (150M tokens)	4-year linear vesting, 1-year cliff
Liquidity	10% (100M tokens)	Initial DEX liquidity
Airdrop	5% (50M tokens)	Early community contributors, testnet participants
Total Supply	1,000,000,000 tokens	Fixed forever — no inflation

Burn Mechanics (Deflationary Pressure)

Tokens are burned in 4 ways:

API burns (50%): Half of all API fees burned permanently
ZK proof fees (20%): Enterprise verification burns
Voluntary burns (100%): Burn-to-vote for prompt visibility + lifetime benefits
Plagiarism slashing: Copycats lose stake → burned

Year 1 Burn Projection:

300-600M tokens (30-60% of supply)

Based on:

API revenue: 50% burn rate
ZK enterprise usage: 20% burn rate
Burn-to-vote mechanics: 100% burn

This makes PromptChain one of the most deflationary tokens in crypto.

Staking Rewards (Real Yield)

Stake tokens to earn from protocol revenue (not inflation):

Lock Period	APR Range	Source
30 days	8-12%	API revenue share
60 days	15-20%	API + ZK proof fees
90 days	25-35%	Full revenue share + governance boost

Prompt NFT Staking Bonus:

Hold a winning Prompt NFT + stake tokens for 30 days → earn 1.5× royalties on your NFT during the lock period.

This incentivizes NFT holders to remain long-term aligned with the protocol.

Note: APR ranges reflect revenue variability. Higher usage = higher yields. No token inflation — all rewards come from actual protocol fees.

Burn-to-Vote Mechanics

Want your prompt to win? Burn tokens to boost its visibility.

Burn Tier	USD Value	Benefit
Bronze	$100	+10% vote weight, leaderboard badge
Silver	$500	+25% vote weight, priority review
Gold	$2,000	+50% vote weight, featured placement
Platinum	$10,000	+100% vote weight, guaranteed top-10 slot, lifetime VIP status

All burn tiers are USD-pegged via oracle pricing — stays fair at any market cap. Once you achieve a tier, you keep the benefits forever.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: When can I start earning royalties?

A: NFT minting and royalties go live in Q1 2026 when we migrate to the Caldera rollup. Until then, use the Telegram bot to practice, climb the leaderboard, and position yourself for early rewards.

Q: How do I know if my prompt will earn?

A: The best prompts each day (determined by AI judges + community voting) become NFTs. Check the live leaderboard to see competition. Focus on creativity, utility, and viral potential.

Q: What if someone copies my prompt?

A: Hash commitments and time-locks prevent theft. You submit a hash first, reveal later. ZK proofs track all usage (including private) so you always get paid. Plagiarism is slashed and burned.

Q: Can I sell my prompt NFT?

A: Yes! Trade on any NFT marketplace post-launch. Royalties automatically transfer to the new owner. This creates a secondary market for high-quality prompts.

Q: What if I can't code or design?

A: You don't need technical skills. Great prompts come from creativity, not coding ability. Jailbreaks, creative writing prompts, and clever meme concepts all earn equally.

Q: How fast will features ship?

A: We're starting lean with conservative quarterly milestones to ensure quality. Post-launch, we'll rapidly expand the team based on community needs and project success. Roadmap priorities will be community-driven.

Q: How do burn tiers work if token price changes?

A: All burn requirements are USD-pegged via oracle pricing. At $0.01 per token, Platinum might require 1M tokens. At $1 per token, it might require 10k tokens. This keeps tiers fair and accessible at any market cap. Once you achieve a tier, you keep the benefits forever.

Q: What about regulations?

A: We're not providing legal advice. 100% fair launch minimizes regulatory risk. No presale, no team allocation, community-owned from day 1. Consult your own legal/tax advisor.

• Regulatory uncertainty: Crypto regulations evolve constantly
• Market volatility: Crypto is inherently high-risk and speculative
• Execution risk: Technical challenges may cause feature delays
• Competition risk: Others may copy the model

This is a high-risk, high-reward opportunity. Only invest what you can afford to lose completely.
