# $NRN Tokenomics v2.0

## $**NRN powers the** NRN **Ecosystem**

$NRN is a utility token that powers an ecosystem. It facilitates a diversified economy with multiple revenue-generating segments and staking opportunities:

Agent Deployment

* More games integrated. More agents deployed. More project monetization.
  * NRN agents deployed in games are tracked through a certification system, with each deployment generating revenue for the project.
  * Over time, studios may pay NRN to integrate and access tooling, with revenue accruing to the $NRN community treasury and enabling **buybacks**.

Agentic Esports via NRN Reinforcement Learning

* A platform where holders stake $NRN tokens to generate Data Capsules at a 10:1 ratio used to train RL agents featured in competitive esports
  * Data Capsules are containers where players contribute their gameplay data to train **RL agents**. These **Data Capsules** enable indexing of contributions, distribution of rewards, and tracking of user inputs and campaign outcomes.
  * When campaigns end, players can burn their **Data Slots** to claim rewards and retrieve their staked $NRN.

AI Arena

* A cult favorite for competitive players with a skill-based wagering system
  * $NRN powers the in-game economy and enables skill-based staking mechanics in the game
