Question 1

What is Janction (JCT)?

Accepted Answer

Janction (JCT) is the native utility and governance token of Janction, a decentralised Layer 2 infrastructure focused on distributed artificial intelligence (AI) compute. Built using the Optimism OP Stack, Janction provides a scalable blockchain-based environment for collaborative AI processing, including on-demand GPU access, model execution, and data operations.

The platform integrates smart contracts with core AI functions such as model deployment, GPU scheduling, data acquisition, and annotation. Janction uses a multi-layered architecture to manage resource allocation and validation, combining blockchain consensus with mechanisms such as Proof of Contribution, Proof of Resource, and Proof of Task.

Question 2

What is Janction (JCT) token used for?

Accepted Answer

**Payments and Access**  
Users pay for AI services such as GPU compute time, model training, or inference using JCT or stablecoins. Payments in JCT can unlock reduced fees or additional service access.

**Staking and Resource Allocation**  
GPU providers can stake JCT to obtain veJCT, a non-transferable credential reflecting service contribution. This influences task allocation and marketplace prioritisation.

**Governance**  
veJCT holders participate in protocol governance, helping to decide parameters such as marketplace pricing, incentive structures, and funding allocations.

**Contribution Rewards**  
Participants — including data providers, model contributors, and node operators — receive JCT as compensation based on verified contribution, using mechanisms like Shapley value and on-chain scoring.

**Marketplace Operations**  
JCT is used for bidding and settlement within Janction’s GPU Marketplace, where users can request compute power or list idle resources.
