NATIX Network is building an open geospatial Intelligence network using their proprietary AI and smartphone cameras. NATIX’s flagship product “Drive&” uses driver assistant apps (e.g. dashcam and navigation), token incentives, computer vision AI, and smartphone cameras to crowdsource real-time data creating an open geospatial Intelligence network that rewards users for contributing. With over 100K registered drivers and over 34 million KM covered in only one year, NATIX is one of the fastest-growing DePIN networks globally (according to Messari’s state of DePIN report).

Key Highlights

• 5th fastest-growing DePIN in 2023 (according to Messari’s state of DePIN report), with over 100k registered drivers and over 35 million km covered in only 1 year.
• A hyper-scalable DePIN model due to the following aspects:
• Smartphone strategy – While hardware-based solutions are often bottlenecked by supply chain and logistic challenges, there is no need to buy any hardware to join NATIX, it’s as simple as downloading a smartphone app.
• Crypto and non-crypto rewards – Drive& offers crypto and non-crypto incentives through the Marketplace, providing appeal to a broad audience, making it suitable for both crypto and non-crypto-native users.
• Real utility for drivers – Drive& provides driver-assistance features to the users such as dashcam and navigation, parking finder, and more in the future. As a result, earning will become a secondary reason for using the product.
• Patent-pending AI technology that offers a fully privacy-compliant solution and consumes up to 99% less data than similar projects.

Token Supply: The total supply of the NATIX Token is 100 billion.

Distribution: The exact token distribution and corresponding vests are listed below:

• Team and Advisors (20%): 9-month cliff followed by 30-month linear vest
• Incentivization pool (reward, staking, ecosystem, and community) (37%): release based on product usage; slowly over the lifetime of the project
• DEX/CEX Liquidity (8%): unlocked fully at TGE
• Early backers (24.9%): 10% of the allocation unlocked at TGE, 6-month cliff, followed by 20-month linear vesting
• Public Launch (5%): 25% of the allocation unlocked at TGE followed by 6-month linear vesting
• Reserve (5.1%): 25% of the allocation unlocked at TGE followed by 48-month linear vesting
  
  

The NATIX token is the ultimate reward for ecosystem actors, and offers the following functionalities:

• xNodes –NATIX Network operates on a blockchain protocol leveraging a network of nodes that curate data generation, validation, and exchange. NATIX tokens are used to incentivize these nodes, particularly NATIX validator nodes (i.e. xNodes), which require long-term NATIX holdings as a bonding mechanism to deter malicious activities. xNodes are based on the number of available slots and NATIX staked, and earn NATIX according to their uptime and number of validations tasks completed. 
• Staking and voting power for system governance – Token holders can participate in protocol governance decisions by staking their tokens. Only users with staked NATIX Tokens will have governance power to ensure that only long-term token holders aligned with NATIX will be able to vote. To build an engaged community, the longer users have staked the tokens, the more voting power such users would achieve. Active governance participation is incentivized with NATIX tokens. NATIX Network Governance will be rolled out in three phases:
• Phase 1: Limited Governance – Proposals can be posted by the core contributors to the vote of the token holders on key issues such as protocol fees and major parameter changes
• Phase 2: Increased Governance – Proposals can be posted by token stakers with a minimum amount of tokens for the vote of the token holders. These proposals can change protocol fees and other ma
• Phase : Full Decentralization – Proposals can be posted by token holders with a substantial amount of tokens and change any aspect of the protocol.
• In-app (Drive&) utilities – NATIX can also be converted to in-app NATIX (“ aNATIX”) for users to make the most from the Drive& app utilities:
• In-app NATIX holders gain access to premium Drive& features, particularly advanced driver-assistant applications (e.g. parking finder, advanced dashcam functionalities, and other exclusive features).
• In-app NATIX is utilized for purchases in the exclusive marketplace, featuring premium goods and services. The marketplace within the NATIX Network's Drive& app offers users with a diverse selection, including gadgets, electronics, gift cards, and offers from other DePIN projects.
• Accumulating and holding aNATIX offers advantages such as exclusive access to community rewards, complimentary monthly marketplace offerings, and premium offer discounts.

*In-app NATIX (i.e. aNATIX) is a point-based system that stands as the premium currency in Drive& app, to reward those who contribute the most toward collecting geospatial data. Note that aNATIX is NOT a token or other cryptocurrency. aNATIX points can be converted into NATIX tokens following a cooldown period (or an instant withdrawal fee). NATIX is also convertible to aNATIX. Drive& app users can convert NATIX to aNATIX to be able to benefit from the in-app utilities listed above.

NATIX is trusted by, and partnered with some of the biggest names in Web3 and DePIN innovation.

NATIX aims to enhance the driving experience, offering users a suite of driver-assistant features such as dashcam, speed trap alerts, navigation assistance, parking availability indicators, and more. These features are powered by the data shared by Drive& users, creating a flywheel effect where users become the supply side for the data and the demand side of a network that operates in a decentralized space, pushing the boundaries of Web3 and DePIN innovation.

NATIX has developed a patent-pending AI technology that reduces infrastructure costs to almost $0 for Data Consumers and is 100% privacy-compliant. It’s so effective that the NATIX AI Technology was used by international organizations such as E.ON, City of the Hague, and Deutsche Telekom.

Combining NATIX’s proprietary AI technology with the world’s 45 billion existing smart cameras (in smartphones, drones, cars, and IP cameras), creates the largest crowd-sourced camera network ever. As a result, NATIX Network creates a new crowdsourced geospatial data economy powered by the “Internet of Cameras”.

Drive&, NATIX Network’s flagship product, is a revolutionary AI-based driver assistant application operating in a decentralized space. It empowers users by automatically rewarding them for capturing events in their surroundings while driving, making every journey safer, more engaging, and financially rewarding.
