Tokenomics

Migration

The migration lifecycle, reserve model and safeguards separated from the core tokenomics overview.

Pre-mainnet access

A temporary Ethereum representation can bridge project funding to native BTCAI.

Planned
  1. 01Approved BTCAI-ETH Issuance
  2. 02Native BTCAI Migration Reserve
  3. 03Mainnet Launch
  4. 04Migration Window
  5. 05BTCAI-ETH Burn / Lock
  6. 06Native BTCAI Released
BTCAI-ETH is a planned ERC-20 representation intended for pre-mainnet project funding/community distribution and later migration to native BTCAI, subject to legal review, final issuance terms, reserve accounting, and published migration rules.

BTCAI-ETH is not

  • A guaranteed presale
  • A guaranteed investment
  • A guaranteed listing
  • Risk-free
  • Classified as a security or non-security without counsel

No unbacked migration claims

Every migration token should have transparent native BTCAI reserve accounting.

Planned
For each legitimate migration-eligible BTCAI-ETH there should be one reserved native BTCAI under published accounting rules.

1 reserved native BTCAI

Held in a published migration reserve

This does not mean native BTCAI is transferable before mainnet.

For each legitimate migration-eligible BTCAI-ETH there should be one reserved native BTCAI under published accounting rules.

From ERC-20 to native

Migration should be one-way, auditable, and resistant to double claims.

Planned
Planned migration architecture
  1. 1Eligibility snapshot / validationEligible balances are fixed and published before the window opens.
  2. 2Wallet connects to the official migration appOnly the app linked from bitcoinai.network is official.
  3. 3User submits BTCAI-ETHThe holder chooses the amount and the native destination address.
  4. 4Contract burns or permanently locks BTCAI-ETHThe ERC-20 can never be redeemed again.
  5. 5Migration proof is generatedThe source transaction becomes a verifiable claim.
  6. 6BitcoinAI verifies the claimAfter the required Ethereum confirmation depth.
  7. 7Reserved native BTCAI is releasedFrom the published migration reserve, 1:1.
  8. 8Claim is marked consumedRecorded in the consumed-claim registry.
  9. 9Explorer / reserve state updatesPublic reserve accounting reflects the migration.

No migration app, contract or claim flow exists yet. This describes the planned architecture only.

One claim, one release

A migration token must not be redeemable twice.

  • Burn or permanent lock
  • Unique claim ID
  • Source-chain transaction hash
  • Migration nonce
  • Consumed-claim registry
  • Chain ID binding
  • Reserve accounting
  • Proof confirmation depth
  • Migration contract audit
  • Pause mechanism
  • Emergency recovery policy
Claim commitmentConceptual
migrationClaimId =
Hash(
  sourceChain
  || sourceTx
  || sourceWallet
  || amount
  || destinationWallet
  || nonce
)

Any change to any input produces a different ID, and each ID can be consumed exactly once.
