—— The protocol evolution path from PoW to PoS

1. Upgrade background: Network evolution towards the intelligent protocol layer.

MelosBoom officially launches the mining mechanism upgrade plan, aiming to build a more efficient, safer, and more decentralized underlying intelligent network to support the high-speed interaction and multi-chain deployment of future AI Agent protocols. The current phase is a hybrid consensus mechanism of PoW + PoS, gradually transitioning to a pure POS model oriented towards Layer2 architecture, achieving a system evolution from 'computational power-driven' to 'ecological-driven'.

The goals of this upgrade include:

● Reduce the risk of early PoW computational power centralization and enhance network security resilience.

● Incentivize long-term holding and participation in staking of tokens, increasing ecological participation;

● Adapt to high-throughput application scenarios under Layer2 architecture, improving the overall efficiency of the protocol.

● Provide underlying trust assurance for AI Agent networks and data collaboration.

2. Progressive mining mechanism

Phase one: PoW initiation period (current phase)

Mechanism overview: Nodes complete transaction verification and data submission through computational power, constructing the initial security of the network.

Reward composition:

● Daily rewards are distributed according to the proportion of computational power contributions, with the reward pool including regular nodes and joint node miner rewards.

● The acquired tokens enter the 'ecological unlocking' phase, where users can improve the release rate through subsequent staking and participation.

Phase characteristics:

● Build the initial consensus and incentive mechanism of the network;

● There is an issue of computational power centralization and gradually increasing energy consumption.

Phase two: PoW + PoS hybrid mechanism (transition phase)

Starting conditions: When the circulation of ecological tokens reaches a certain threshold (currently 250 million), to balance market release and ecological stability, PoS parallel incentives are initiated.

Mechanism design:

● The total daily reward pool (R) is fixed, divided into two parts: PoW and POS.

● PoS activation threshold (T): When the cumulative released PoW token quantity reaches a specified value, POS rewards are fully activated.

● Prior to this, POS rewards gradually increase, while PoW rewards decrease correspondingly, forming a dynamic adjustment curve.

● POS staking incentives: Users can lock up and stake MBOOM to earn POS rewards; the larger the staking scale, the higher the release efficiency.

Purpose and effects:

● Guide token liquidity into the ecological system.

● Enhance the participation of token holders in network growth and the stability of returns.

Phase three: Pure POS mechanism (after complete Layer2 deployment)

Upgrade conditions: Complete deployment relying on Layer2 networks, achieving second-level transaction confirmation and low-cost node operation, with high throughput and low latency performance.

Mechanism features:

● All token holders can become verification nodes through staking, distributing POS rewards based on the amount staked and online duration.

● Existing PoW nodes will smoothly transition to staking nodes, retaining historical weight.

● Support future AI Agent data collaboration, cross-chain interaction, decentralized intelligent execution, and other complex scenario needs.

Ecological advantages:

● The network becomes more decentralized, with significantly reduced energy consumption;

● Achieve an ecological closed loop of 'staking - returns - re-staking', enhancing the sustainability of the token economy.

3. Mechanism upgrade summary

The evolution path of the MelosBoom mining mechanism is not only a structural optimization of token release efficiency but also a strategic deployment of the protocol's long-term governance capability. The upgrade brings the following core values:

● Clear release rhythm: The three-phase mechanism conforms to a 10-year decreasing release path, with a total supply not exceeding 1 billion, controlling inflation expectations.

● The incentive structure is robust: PoW and POS rewards are adjusted through thresholds and proportions to create a dynamic supply-demand balance.

● Ecological adaptation enhancement: Layer2 + POS model provides underlying support for large-scale Agent networks and on-chain AI protocols;

● Long-term value anchoring: Enhance token retention through staking mechanisms, reduce circulation pressure, and strengthen the internal circulation of ecological assets.

MelosBoom continuously promotes the transparency and fairness of mining processes; all reward parameters and network data will be publicly available through official channels. Community participation in governance is welcome to jointly build an open, trustworthy, and intelligent future AI network.
