Token Disclaimer
High-Risk Digital Asset: The $YAI token is a digital asset and involves significant risk. You may lose some or all of the value of your tokens. $YAI, like any other crypto asset, may be highly volatile, unpredictable, and illiquid, and you may be unable to buy, sell, or exit a position at your desired time or price.
Decentralized Token: $YAI is de facto fully decentralized. It is not owned, operated, administered, or controlled by any founders, developers, contributors, marketers, or any other group (collectively, the “Initial Contributors”).
There is no team, no ongoing managerial efforts, and no party has any special access, governance control, or discretionary authority over $YAI or any secondary-market activity.
Utility Only: $YAI was intended to be a utility token for use within the Ÿ Project ecosystem (where available). It does not represent equity, ownership, debt, or any other security or investment product, and it does not entitle holders to profits, dividends, revenue share, or distributions of any kind.
No promise of returns or future value was made, and nothing from Ÿ Project was intended to encourage token price manipulation or speculation.

Financial Plan
The first phase of Ÿ emphasizes building the foundation: setting up production infrastructure and completing the development team to enable rapid releases. Initially on-chain trading fees will be the main source to cover the initial growth phase.
This will allow us to deploy and build the necessary tools and infrastructure. Once those have been established we will be able to scale the business to profitability and get rid of the inherent need for on-chain trading fees.
Initially contract fees will have 2 main use cases:
Covering operational costs & business development.
Strategic liquidity provisions.
Here are some examples of how Ÿ utilizes on-chain taxes to achieve its objectives.
Development & Innovation:
Funding core development team
Research and development of new technologies
Integration of new features and improvements
Operational Expenses:
Infrastructure costs (servers, hosting, etc.)
Administrative fees
Marketing & Community Engagement:
Promoting campaigns
Hosting AMAs, inviting top hosts in crypto space
Social media marketing and influencer partnerships
Business Development:
Partnerships and collaborations
Acquisitions of complementary businesses or technologies
Expansion into new jurisdictions
Security, Compliance and Legal:
Investment in robust security measures
Compliance with regulatory requirements
Legal representations
High due diligence standards
Audits and third-party security assessments
Liquidity and Community Rewards Provisions
Providing liquidity for decentralized exchanges (SLP program).
LP staking programs.
User Support & Service:
Building and maintaining customer support teams (mods, community managers)
Developing user-friendly interfaces and platforms
Implementing feedback mechanisms for continuous improvement
Reserve Funds & Contingencies:
Establishing reserve funds for unexpected expenses
Creating a financial safety net for the project
Planning for long-term sustainability and growth
Note that this list is not exhaustive, and the team's discretionary authority encompasses all fund allocation areas, including project development, operational costs, marketing efforts, and equitable team compensation. Read more.
Income will be generated through multiple avenues:
Fixed Subscription plans
Different subscription plans will be established for users to access to our tools. These will vary based on our product offerings.
Custom made enterprise grade solutions
Besides individual user subscription, we will offer custom made solution to businesses. The details and pricing of these will depend on the needs and use cases of the business. These can stretch from higher limits on existing models to fully custom build models based on proprietary data.
Our success will lead Ÿ to a thriving business, paving the way for the potential elimination of on-chain trading fees. We're committed to sharing our success as well. Revenue streams will allow us to implement programs like revenue sharing and contribution rewards, giving back to our valued users.
A sustainable business model allows us to continually improve and expand our AI models. More details on this will be announced later.
While the $YAI token may be listed on third-party platforms, such as Uniswap, it is important to note that we do not provide support for swap functionalities, token pricing, availability, or stability on these platforms. The $YAI token serves solely as a utility token within our ecosystem.
