Quai NetworkQUAI

Quai Network generated $5.0M in gross revenue from Dec 2025 to Jun 2026 (190 days), with $2.1M retained as net revenue. $2.1M accrued to QUAI token holders. Its primary token utilities include Network Security, Staking Rewards, Gas Token, and Ecosystem Currency.

This averages $$26.2K in daily gross revenue across the tracked period.

QUAI accrues value through 2 mechanisms: Buyback & Burn and Direct Token Burn.

• Buyback & Burn: SOAP converts merge-mining subsidies from parent chains into open-market QUAI purchases which are then permanently burned, representing ~180M QUAI annually (~13.6% of post-Singularity baseline supply).
• Direct Token Burn: EIP-1559-style base fee burning destroys a portion of gas fees paid on the network, and the Singularity Fork executed a one-time burn of 1.67B QUAI (81.1% of future genesis unlocks).

Yes, Quai Network burns or redistributes QUAI tokens via Buyback & Burn, Direct Token Burn. In 2026, approximately $2.0M worth of value was returned to token holders through these mechanisms.

Yearly token holder distributions:

• 2026: $2.0M
• 2025: $133.2K

QUAI serves 4 primary functions within the Quai Network ecosystem: Network Security, Staking Rewards, Gas Token, and Ecosystem Currency. The protocol generates fees from user activity, with a portion distributed back to QUAI holders. Value flows back to token holders through Buyback & Burn and Direct Token Burn.

Token utilities:

• Network Security: Locked Mining Rewards (LMR) allow miners to voluntarily lock block rewards for 3-month, 6-month, or 12-month periods, creating ASIC-like network security commitment in a GPU-friendly network by making hit-and-run attacks unprofitable.
• Staking Rewards: LMR provides enhanced yield multipliers for locked block rewards: up to 1.250x for 12-month locks in Year 1, declining annually through Year 5+, rewarding miners for long-term commitment.
• Gas Token: QUAI functions as the native gas token on account-based EVM-compatible blockchains and QI functions as the native gas token on UTXO-based chains within the Quai Network hierarchy.
• Ecosystem Currency: The dual-token system with interconvertible QUAI and QI tokens serves as the primary medium of exchange across the multi-chain ecosystem, with a protocol-defined conversion mechanism enabling seamless exchange between them.

Value accrual mechanisms:

• Buyback & Burn: SOAP converts merge-mining subsidies from parent chains into open-market QUAI purchases which are then permanently burned, representing ~180M QUAI annually (~13.6% of post-Singularity baseline supply).
• Direct Token Burn: EIP-1559-style base fee burning destroys a portion of gas fees paid on the network, and the Singularity Fork executed a one-time burn of 1.67B QUAI (81.1% of future genesis unlocks).
