🔄 Overview

Taoillium is structured as a multi-sided AI economy where all participants play distinct and interdependent roles. Each role contributes to the subnet's value generation and is rewarded based on performance, contribution, and responsibility.

The four key roles are: Users, Miners, Validators, and the Owner.

🔑 Roles and Responsibilities

Role Key Actions Reward Eligibility Onboarding Method
Users Call AI services, pay usage-based TAO ❌ No TAO rewards (paying side) API access (token-gated or free quota)
Miners Run inference models, respond to user prompts ✅ Based on validator score Whitelist → Stake TAO → Register Key
Validators Score miner outputs, ensure output quality ✅ Based on scoring participation Whitelist → Stake TAO → Register Key
Owner Define onboarding logic, manage emissions, set rules ✅ Share of emissions + fee intake Assigned from subnet genesis

🧮 Emission Distribution Model

In Taoillium, TAO emissions are proportional to performance and distributed in weighted shares. The breakdown is as follows:

Recipient Group Emission Weight % Notes
Miners 41% Distributed based on validator scoring and query handling volume
Validators 41% Based on scoring participation and scoring consistency
Subnet Owner 18% Fixed portion for subnet maintenance and dev ops

💡 These weights are configurable and may shift via governance or subnet rule changes.

🧪 Developer Guide Summary

To fully participate in Taoillium’s decentralized AI economy, each role must go through a basic setup process involving wallet creation, registration, and task execution. This section provides a technical overview for different participants.

Role Tool Commands Notes
User Frontend/API login(), API calls Mostly UI-based interaction
Miner btcli register, stake, run miner Needs uptime and response quality
Validator btcli register --validator, score functions Ensures reward integrity
Subnet Owner btcli + SDK create, reward config, registry tools Controls subnet economics and updates
