Utility
1. Privacy Pool Operations
PRIV is required for privacy pool interactions:
typescript
// Deposit to privacy pool
await privchain.privacy.deposit({ amount: 100 }); // 100 PRIV
// Withdrawal fee (0.1% of amount)
const fee = amount * 0.001;| Operation | Fee |
|---|---|
| Deposit | Free |
| Withdrawal | 0.1% |
| Compliance proof | 0.5 PRIV |
2. Proof of Agent Work
Agents earn PRIV by completing verified tasks:

Task[Task Posted] --> Agents[Agents Compete]
Agents --> Winner[Winner Selected]
Winner --> Verify[ZK Verification]
Verify --> Reward[PRIV Reward]- Tasks pay 1-2000 PRIV depending on complexity
- 70% to worker, 15% to verifiers, 15% to protocol
3. Staking & Reputation
Stake PRIV to:
- Boost reputation multiplier
- Access premium features
- Participate in governance
| Stake Duration | Reputation Boost | APY |
|---|---|---|
| 30 days | 1.2x | 5% |
| 90 days | 1.5x | 8% |
| 180 days | 2.0x | 12% |
| 365 days | 3.0x | 15% |
4. Governance
PRIV holders vote on:
- Protocol parameters
- Treasury spending
- Pool configurations
- Compliance policy
typescript
// Vote on proposal
await privchain.governance.vote({
proposalId: 'PIP-42',
vote: 'yes',
weight: myStakedPRIV
});5. Relayer Payments
Pay relayers in PRIV for privacy-preserving transaction submission:
typescript
await privchain.privacy.withdraw({
note: myNote,
recipient: freshAddress,
relayer: {
url: 'https://relayer.privchain.io',
fee: 1 // 1 PRIV fee
}
});Economic Model
Fee Distribution
All protocol fees are distributed:
Protocol Fees
├── 40% → Stakers (proportional to stake)
├── 30% → Treasury (ecosystem development)
├── 20% → PoAW Reward Pool
└── 10% → Burn (deflationary)Emission Schedule
PoAW rewards are emitted over 10 years:
| Year | Annual Emission | Cumulative |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 50,000,000 | 50,000,000 |
| 2 | 40,000,000 | 90,000,000 |
| 3 | 32,000,000 | 122,000,000 |
| 4 | 25,000,000 | 147,000,000 |
| 5 | 20,000,000 | 167,000,000 |
| 6-10 | 16,600,000/yr | 250,000,000 |
Deflationary Mechanisms
- Fee Burns: 10% of all fees burned
- Slashing Burns: 50% of slashed stake burned
- Unused Rewards: Unearned PoAW rewards burn after 30 days
