This token plays a pivotal role in powering the network’s Proof-of-Stake consensus and decentralized governance, a process by which NIBI stakers can decide on and bring about changes in the network. Additionally, NIBI is utilized to secure the network and pay for computation in the form of gas fees, essential for facilitating the creation of new blocks on the chain.“Dev Gas” Royalty Mechanism: Imagine protocols like Uniswap or Aave earning half of the ETH expended on them. This distinctive feature attracts developers to Nibiru, where builders automatically earn half of the NIBI gas expended on their smart contracts, encouraging network growth and sustained development of the ecosystem. | $12M / Seed / Feb 01, 2024 | |
