$OGPU Coin

The $OGPU token is the native utility, reward, and governance token powering the OpenGPU ecosystem. It is designed not just to fuel GPU transactions but to align long-term incentives, govern protocol evolution, and drive liquidity through a thoughtfully constructed treasury architecture.

This section details the token's purpose, structure, use cases, issuance model, and how the OpenGPU treasury sustains and grows the ecosystem.

💰 Treasury Design: “The Core Engine”

The OpenGPU Treasury is a smart-contract-governed capital reserve designed to:

• Stabilize the token economy

• Fund R&D, grants, bounties, and growth

• Reward long-term protocol contributors

Treasury Revenue Streams:

• Protocol Fees: % of GPU job payments (in OGPU or bridged tokens)

• DAO-Controlled Yields: Capital deployment into partner DeFi protocols or liquidity pools
