Tokenomics
Designing a Real-World Utility Token for Infrastructure Ownership
At the core of the Piggycell ecosystem lies PIGGY, a multi-functional utility and governance token that powers every interaction across the decentralized energy network.
Unlike speculative tokens that rely solely on trading dynamics, PIGGY is anchored to real-world demand: every charge, every infrastructure use, every user interaction generates rewards and utility for the token. PIGGY is not just the currency of the platform—it is its coordination layer.
Energy Payments
Users pay for energy usage (e.g., charge sessions, NFT memberships) in PIGGY tokens
Incentive Rewards
Charging node owners, franchisees, and Energy-as-a-Service providers earn PIGGY through usage of their physical infrastructure verifiable on Piggycell
Staking Mechanism
Users stake PIGGY to access advanced features, higher earning tiers, or to secure exclusive device access
Governance Power
Staked PIGGY tokens confer voting rights on Piggycell governance proposals (e.g., reward rates, expansion priorities, challenge designs)
Reputation Layer
Token usage history affects user visibility, credit ranking, and eligibility for exclusive challenges or drops. This incentivizes user contribution to Piggycell
Challenge Rewards
Users receive PIGGY for completing behavioral or location-based missions (Charge-to-Earn, Challenge-to-Earn)
NFT Interoperability
NFTs represent ownership of charging stations: PIGGY is earned when users use these charging stations over time
