What is the Newton Protocol project?
Newton Protocol is a decentralized protocol aimed at creating a public and open computing layer on the web, recorded on-chain. Developers and users can discover computing services such as cloud computing or processing using artificial intelligence in a decentralized and transparent environment.
This protocol provides a global record of computing jobs and processors, facilitating integration through standardized interfaces (APIs), giving freedom in configuration and service selection without relying on a single entity.
Why was the Newton Protocol developed?
Resorting to centralized computing services (like AWS or Google Cloud) puts users in a position of distrust, control, and reliance on a single provider.
Newton addresses these issues by:
Registering services on the blockchain to be transparent and open to everyone.
Supporting interoperability between services using standardized protocols.
Encouraging honest behavior through on-chain proofs and verified performance data.
How Newton Protocol works
On-chain service registry: Newton creates an immutable record containing data about service providers, policies, prices, usage interfaces, and performance indicators.
Standard interfaces: allow for easy integration of services within specific applications or tasks.
Dynamic integration: for example, a developer can use one service for mathematical calculations and another for AI analysis, linking them in a single workflow.
What is the technical distinction?
The protocol offers what is known as a 'reliable automation layer' on the blockchain, where complex tasks can be delegated to agents that operate automatically using advanced techniques such as TEEs (Trusted Execution Environments) and ZKPs (Zero-Knowledge Proofs) to verify performance without compromising privacy.
Newton supports what are called 'intents', which are automated intentions linked to specific execution conditions and rewards, without the user losing control of their assets.
NEWT token and its role in the system
Token and objective
NEWT is a utility token for the interoperability system, with a total supply capped at 1 billion units, used to pay for computing fees, rewards, governance, and storage as collateral.
Core uses
- Fees: used to pay for computing costs. - Collateral: used as collateral or as part of the agent market. - Governance: grants holders the right to participate in decisions. - Security: may be used in staking mechanisms to secure the network.
Transparent characteristics
The foundation relies on the highest standards of disclosure and transparency: token-holding wallets are flagged, and any sales convert their proceeds into stablecoins in publicly traceable wallets.
Participation on Binance: HODLer Airdrop
Binance announced that NEWT is the 24th project in the HODLer Airdrops program.
The eligibility period was from June 14 to June 17, 2025, distributing 12.5 million NEWT (1.25% of the total supply).
At listing, the circulating supply was 215 million NEWT, or 21.5% of the total supply. It is noted that 60% is allocated to the project community, and 40% to developers and investors with a gradual distribution plan.
Price and current market status
The price currently ranges between approximately $0.33 - $0.33, with a daily trading volume between $16 to $18 million.
Total circulating supply: approximately 215 million NEWT in the market.
Market capitalization: approximately $70 million, with a fully diluted market cap (FDV) potentially reaching $330 million.
Price predictions (uncertain - for illustrative purposes only)
Optimistic estimates predict reaching $0.33 by the end of 2025, then moving to $0.35 in 2026, and $0.43 by 2030.
Some pessimistic forecasts suggest a decline of up to -39% in 2025.
Investment alert: these forecasts are subject to market fluctuations and are highly variable. Please conduct independent research before making any financial decisions.
Summary
Newton Protocol (NEWT) is a structural innovation aimed at creating a public and transparent computing layer across the blockchain, combining security, trust, and ease of use.
NEWT is used to pay for fees, governance, collateral, and incentives, in a system designed for maximum reliability.
The project is generating positive buzz in the DeFi and AI world, with increasing interest from major platforms like Binance.
The current price is reasonable, but the future of the token is tied to the project's success and its adoption in the Web3 environment.
