3.3 ECOStage Nodes

ECOStage’s mining structure includes Streaming Nodes, AI Nodes, and Verifier Nodes, each playing a specialized role in ecosystem growth. This structure focuses on building a sustainable and efficient ecosystem through a revenue-sharing model between Node operators and Infra Providers.

• Streaming Node

  • Function: Provides real-time JSON streaming and caching, efficiently offloading data from primary sources to enhance overall performance.

  • Role: Stores data on TiKV to ensure stability and continuity.

• AI Node

  • Function: Supports LLM (Large Language Model)-based Q&A, generating responses through RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) and knowledge graphs (KG).

  • Role: Supports AI features of the CoGo Agent, providing relevant information and analysis for eco-friendly activities.

  • Rewards: Distributed based on the quality of AI-driven responses provided to users.

• Verifier Node

  • Function: Conducts data verification and node contribution evaluations to ensure reliable reward distribution.

  • Requirements: Only nodes meeting strict criteria can participate, maintaining data integrity and trust.

  • Rewards: Additional rewards for verification, strengthening data reliability and ecosystem stability.

Channel-Based Revenue Sharing Model

Node operators share a percentage of their revenue with Infra Providers based on channel performance, with additional rewards for high-performing nodes. Operators manage channel performance to foster ecosystem growth and stability.

Initial and Continuous Reward Structure

Initial Node operators receive additional base rewards, which gradually decrease over time. Afterwards, revenue generated from channels is shared between Infra Providers and Node operators, establishing a sustainable revenue model.

Node Infrastructure Cost Deduction Mechanism

Node operators on ECOStage can choose Infra Providers from the Market Place and have infrastructure costs deducted from their revenue, allowing for sustainable earnings without bearing infrastructure costs.
