Question 1

What is Bless Token (BLESS)?

Accepted Answer

Bless Token (BLESS) is the native utility token of Bless Network, a decentralised edge-computing platform that aggregates idle capacity from consumer devices into a shared compute layer. BLESS is the unit of account for buying compute, rewarding nodes and posting collateral for participation. Applications are delivered as “network-neutral apps” (nnApps) that run across desktops, mobiles, browsers and containerised nodes.

**Architecture & orchestration:** Tasks are assigned by device capability, geography and historical reliability; the “nestled node” model lets a single device serve multiple nnApps in parallel.  
**Execution environment:** Workloads run inside a WebAssembly (WASM) runtime with sandboxing, memory safety, process isolation, resource limits, in-memory encryption and continuous health checks.  
**Dynamic verification:** The network selects verification per task: aggregation for quantitative outputs, fault-tolerant voting for binary decisions and optional zero-knowledge proofs where suitable.  
**Developer model:** nnApps target standardised network capabilities; APIs cover job submission, metering and settlement.  
**Network state:** Active testnet with integration to Solana for coordination and programme logic ahead of mainnet.

Question 2

What is Bless Token (BLESS) used for?

Accepted Answer

**Paying for compute:** Workloads such as inference, data processing and verification are paid in BLESS.  
**Rewards for node operators:** Payments received in BLESS are split between contributors of CPU/GPU, storage and bandwidth and the network treasury, with 90% allocated to node operators and 10% to the treasury.  
**Staking and delegated staking:** Nodes (or their delegates) lock BLESS as collateral. Stakes can be reduced for incorrect results, downtime or policy violations.  
**Reputation-linked incentives:** Payouts are adjusted by a reputation system that tracks reliability, accuracy and timeliness.  
**Programmable settlement:** Smart contracts govern fee flows, staking, slashing and task escrow, enabling automated settlement between apps and nodes.
