Token Model

The Times AI ecosystem is built around real platform usage, with the $TMIX token acting as the settlement, governance, and value-alignment layer across intelligence delivery, index operations, and ecosystem participation. $TMIX is used to pay for advertisements, press releases, index creation, and Index AI agent management, creating continuous, usage-driven demand. A defined percentage of the fees collected is permanently burned, introducing a deflationary mechanism that scales with platform adoption, while the remaining revenue is allocated to staking rewards, Index AI agent revenue sharing, and the treasury to fund long-term development and operations. Staking and governance further align token holders with platform growth, while mint-and-burn mechanisms within index participation ensure supply adjusts dynamically based on demand. Together, these flows create a closed-loop economic model that links token demand, revenue generation, and supply discipline to sustainable, intelligence-driven ecosystem growth.
