Payment for AI transactions

Payment for AI transactions

Every time Nesa executes an AI inference, part of the transaction payment sent to Nesa is shared with the miner, validator, and model owner. NES is purchased and distributed to them as their reward.

Securing the network

Securing the network

To be a miner or validator on Nesa Chain, a certain amount of NES must be staked to secure the network. NES holders may also designate their NES to other miners to profit-share on AI inference transactions, as a form of liquid staking.

How NES Transactions work:

PayForQuery

To publish data on Nesa developers can submit PayForQuery transactions. Each PayForQuery transaction is split into two parts:

The inference query which includes the data to be made available along with the namespace and signature, and the NES token executable payment transaction which includes a commitment to the data. The block data is extended using erasure coding and then Merkelized into a data root commitment included in the block header.
