Overview of $HINT

$HINT is the native utility token of the Hive Intelligence ecosystem, built on Base. It aligns incentives for users, developers, and the Hive's Model Context Protocol by enabling staking, governance, and rewards in a deflationary model tied to platform revenues.

What is the Token Utility?

• Staking: Stake $HINT to access priority MCP features, higher query limits, exclusive endpoints, and reduced latency for AI workflows.

• Governance: Vote on protocol upgrades, chain expansions, and feature priorities; earn staking rewards based on ecosystem performance.

• Access and Incentives: Use $HINT for premium tools, developer grants, and ecosystem partnerships.

How Will Token Accrue Value?

Currently, MCP is free for enterprise integrations, with 50+ projects signed up. Soon, paid tiers for heavy usage will launch, directing revenues to quarterly buybacks and burns of $HINT from the market. This reduces supply as platform adoption grows - increasing data processing, integrations, and chain support - creating deflationary pressure and value accrual for holders. Buybacks will be transparent with on-chain proofs, starting Q4 2025.
