Nesa

What Is Nesa (NES)? Nesa is the largest decentralized AI platform and ecosystem backed by a privacy-first AI Layer 1. Its proprietary encrypted inference technology supports a broad range of workloads and serves Fortune 500 enterprise customers in industries like retail, healthcare, and IT. Further, Nesa fosters a rapidly growing set of exclusive, on-chain Decentralized AI applications (DAIs) and enables end-users to participate in their support. NES is the native utility token that is used for: * Fees for processing transactions, storing data, and inference requests. * Running validator and miner nodes on the network via staking NES tokens. * Used for governance votes to adjust protocol parameters agreed on collectively. Nesa tools include: * Nesa's AI SDK which simplifies submission of inference requests via the protocol. * Nesa Explorers in both Cosmos and EVM flavors that help to bring visibility into network runtime and performance. * Nesa Miner Software and Command Line Tools to allow community developers to participate in running the ecosystem. How Many NES Coins Are There In Circulation? Nesa launched its mainnet on May 9, 2026 with 1 billion NES tokens created at genesis. The network supports a constant annual inflation rate of 8%, decreasing by 8% each year until reaching a minimum rate of 1.8%.
