AIOZ Network Token Metrics Explained

The original AIOZ token plan set a 1 billion supply, with 53% for ecosystem growth. Allocation, sale stages and vesting terms as published in 2020.
Updated Nov 4, 2026: corrected the inflation line to the current schedule, removed the initial market cap figure, marked the sale prices as 2020 history, added the on-chain total supply and noted the 2021 presale vesting change.
This post was published in March 2020, before AIOZ Mainnet, so it reads as a plan. The figures below are the original allocation. Inflation has since been revised: see AIOZ Network Tokenomics 2.0 and the current AIOZ tokenomics page. You can now convert ERC-20 and BEP-20 AIOZ to native AIOZ with the AIOZ bridge.
The AIOZ Network relies on two major components for its infrastructure to work. On one end, there is a decentralized content delivery network, which relies on multiple nodes spread out throughout the globe. These nodes (known as edge nodes) provide computational-demanding resources like bandwidth, storage, and computational power in order to store content, share content and perform computing tasks.
At the time of writing, AIOZ Network counts with more than 7,000 edge nodes from all over the world. A number that is growing at an astonishing rate and that shows how much people believe in a decentralized future for the distribution of content of all sorts.

On the other hand, blockchain technology allows the content delivery system to work smoothly by applying game-theory to the mix. As so, nodes are incentivized with $AIOZ in sharing computational resources for the storage and distribution of the digital media content for the AIOZ Network dApps ecosystem.
The $AIOZ Token: Issuance and inception
AIOZ Network will be launching the token on both the Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain platforms to facilitate the issuance and liquidity of the $AIOZ token at its embryonic stage. This means that $AIOZ will be an ERC20 and BEP20 token during its IDO and post-IDO phase until the release of MainNet in the future.
In the future, once the AIOZ Network system is fully operational, users will be able to swap these tokens in a fully transparent and counterparty risk-free way via AIOZ Swap Portal to convert from BEP20 & ERC20 to native $AIOZ
The aforementioned transition will take place once the main-net is launched. More information about this can be found on our roadmap here.
$AIOZ Token: A game-changer for content delivery incentives
While the $AIOZ token itself has a simple premise: to reward edge nodes for their works of distributing digital contents, storing media contents and performing computing tasks, this token will serve many more purposes within the $AIOZ Network and the dApp that is currently live and that is deployed by the AIOZ Team and third-parties in the near future.
An example of this is the AIOZ Tube, a video-sharing platform similar to Youtube but that allows users to be rewarded for watching content. That's just the start, The system allows content creators to be automatically rewarded just for creating and uploading content according to the popularity of said content.
Additional features include the ability for advertisers to reward both content creators for placing advertisements on their videos and to reward content consumers for their attention and for willingly sharing their data. This is not a completely new concept: Brave browser and others have been toying with this concept successfully for a while, but AIOZ plans to take it to the next level by allowing new tokens (NFTs) to be brought into the mix allowing for even more complex and rewarding systems to be brought into the mix.
$AIOZ Token Metrics
So, without further ado, we want to share the $AIOZ Network tokenomics. The tokenomic information seen below related both the issuance of the token itself (supply, initial circulation, etc) and to the private and public sales of the $AIOZ Network. Here is a summary of the tokens allocations:
Summary
- Token Name : AIOZ
- Total Supply : 1,000,000,000 $AIOZ
Planned in 2020: 9% inflation yearly for validators, starting 1 year after MainNet goes live. What happened: 9% applied from March 1, 2023, then governance proposals #25, #32 and #35 cut it by 1% on each December 25 (8% in 2023, 7% in 2024, 6% in 2025). Inflation is 6% as of November 2026, and 5% is scheduled for December 25, 2026. See AIOZ Network Tokenomics 2.0 for the details.

Note: While this information is considered to be "final", it may be subject to minor changes as the market and inner working of the project and token sale progress and changes. If any changes take place, the community will be informed via the usual channels: Medium, Twitter, and Telegram group and announcements channel.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many AIOZ tokens did the original plan create?
The 2020 plan set a total supply of 1,000,000,000 AIOZ. Inflation has added to it since March 2023, and on November 4, 2026 the chain reported a total supply of 1,288,523,642 native AIOZ.
How was the AIOZ supply allocated?
Ecosystem growth 53%, team 25%, advisors 5%, marketing 5%, exchange liquidity provision 3%, private sales 7.3% and public sales 1.7%.
What was the sale price?
In the 2020 plan, both the public and private sales were priced at $0.015 per AIOZ. That is a historical sale price, not a current one.
