🔁 C Token: Powering Queries, Security, and Governance in DataFi

The C token is more than a transactional currency—it’s the operating system for the Chainbase protocol, binding together compute, trust, and control in one hyper-efficient design.

Here’s what C does:

💡 Query Gas – Every API call and SQL query on Chainbase consumes C, giving the token direct utility in the data layer.

🛡 Network Security – Data producers must stake C to publish datasets. If challenged and proven wrong, their stake is slashed—creating a built-in incentive for accuracy.

🔥 Fee Burn – Chainbase burns 5% of all data-relay fees, creating a deflationary model absent in competitors like The Graph or SubQuery.

🗳 Governance – C holders will control fee parameters, AVS economics, and DataFi marketplace listings via Snapshot and on-chain votes (from 2026).

With 10B C max supply and 80% allocated toward rewards and mining incentives, Chainbase ties token value directly to query volume, staking activity, and marketplace flow—aligning protocol health with user participation.
