# Token Flow
The bloodline of AIAI is the $AIAI flow. The token acts as an incentive for early contributors and participants while keeping all activities in check, such as preventing spam. The design is rooted in the belief in decentralization and the power of the collective mind.

### **There are three sources in the $AIAI flow:**
1- Liquidity from DEX or CEX: This is the entry point for new users, facilitating easy access to the platform. Simply acquiring a small amount of $AIAI entitles anyone to breathe life into their twin.\
\
2-Reward pool: While the AIAI platform provides multiple ways to train and earn—such as setting up Twins, acquiring new skills, and participating in AI Swarms—users can also generate income from external platforms and Web3 initiatives. Personal touch in knowledge and insights are what set agents apart from AI experience like chatGPT.\
\
3-Partner pool: AIAI is utilising the infrastructure from several key partners, such as Kardiachain. It is important to leverage resources from these communities and incentivise them to join in.
***
### **There are three sinks and more to come:**
While creating a Twin is free, $AIAI is required for every action and enhancement, as these are resource-intensive operations.\
\
1-Twin Allowance: Twins spend $AIAI as they interact with the world and progress.\
2-Enhancement: Users can exchange $AIAI for new capabilities for their Twins, such as a better, bigger Knowledge Base and/or Skillsets.\
3-Training: Users can train their Twin extensively at any time to further improve their cognitive and behavioural abilities outside of their autonomous interactions with the world.
