Token
The $SPEC token functions as a governance token, allowing community stakeholders, including users building Agents on Spectral Syntax and Solvers and Creators on Spectral Nova, to participate in network administration. This inclusive approach promotes collective decision-making and reduces the influence of centralized entities. On Spectral Syntax, users who stake $SPEC gain enhanced Agent creation and monetization rights. The staking requirement ensures the creation of purposeful Agents on the network and deters the creation of malicious Agents. On Spectral Nova, Validators, who play a critical role in validating Solvers’ submissions and maintaining challenge integrity, must stake $SPEC as collateral. This requirement incentivizes Validators to act with integrity, as any misbehavior or malicious actions could result in the forfeiture of their staked tokens.
Where can you buy the token?
You can buy $SPEC from exchanges like Bybit, BingX and Gate.io.

Aimelia Network supports two tokens: $AIME and $AILP.
$AIME, an ERC20 governance token, offers revenue-sharing capabilities and benefits like reduced transaction fees and enhanced agent information processing. It ensures collective decision-making, reducing centralized influence. Uses of $AIME include voting on platform fees, staking for event creation and validation, appealing results, accessing exclusive data, and subscribing to AI services. $AIME holders share 20% of the platform’s revenue and can exchange it for $AILP for specific event revenue sharing.
$AILP, an ERC1155 event-specific token, is distributed to task creators, data vendors, and validators based on contributions. Staking $AIME is required to obtain $AILP, which disincentivizes malicious behavior. $AILP holders share up to 80% of event-specific revenue, incentivizing maintenance of the Remix Arena’s functionality.
GOAT Network- 60.42%
Sector – BTC L2
Status – Not yet launched
The GOAT Network is a BTC Rollup integrated with the Entangled Rollup Network, which functions as a unified liquidity provider across various Layer 1 blockchains through a universal settlement layer. The Entangled Rollup utilizes ZKM’s infrastructure and repurposes the validity proof of Rollup transaction batches as the L2-to-L1 bridge transaction receipt, allowing destination chains to easily verify and complete bridge transactions.
The GOAT Network introduces the GOAT-OCP to enhance the security of its consensus and finality layers, reducing the honest assumption from n-of-n to 1-of-n, significantly improving the security of existing Bitcoin L2s. It is the first Bitcoin L2 to introduce a Decentralized Sequencer and secure the consensus layer using a Bitcoin Locking/Slashing mechanism. With these capabilities, GOAT Network aims to be the most decentralized Bitcoin scaling solution. The decentralized sequencer is essential for achieving the GOAT Network’s liveness, fairness, and resistance to censorship. These sequencers create an open market that enables participants to earn sustainable revenue in BTC and GOAT tokens.
Decentralized sequencers create an open market for earning sustainable revenue in BTC and GOAT tokens. This revenue can be tokenized for trading and generating additional returns.
