# Token Utility

$TAIRO drives Tairon's MCP network, enabling publishing, infrastructure coordination, feature access, and protocol governance. Each link in the cycle is reinforced by both existing and upcoming capabilities.

### 1. Teams Publish MCP Servers <a href="#id-1.-teams-publish-mcp-servers" id="id-1.-teams-publish-mcp-servers"></a>

Teams register and operate MCP servers to host agents, automate logic, and expose endpoints via RPC. Registry actions like publishing, versioning, and scaling require $TAIRO.

**Upcoming Features:** → Marketplace for MCP modules and agent kits with dependency management → Automated publishing pipelines with CI/CD hooks and metrics dashboards → Batch configuration for large-scale deployments

### 2. Network Usage Grows <a href="#id-2.-network-usage-grows" id="id-2.-network-usage-grows"></a>

Servers handle agent traffic, scheduled logic, and expose APIs. As usage expands, reliable operators become even more important.

**Upcoming Features:** → Operator verification with uptime-based reputation scores → Real-time usage metrics and performance monitoring

### 3. Operators Earn $TAIRO <a href="#id-3.-operators-earn-usdtra" id="id-3.-operators-earn-usdtra"></a>

Operators of MCP servers earn token rewards tied to actual traffic and uptime. More consistent, high-availability infrastructure means greater rewards.

**Upcoming Features:** → Automated, onchain token payouts → Dynamic rewards scaling with volume → Staking requirements for operator verification and enhanced earning tiers

### 4. Token Used for Infrastructure Access & Tools <a href="#id-4.-token-used-for-infrastructure-access-and-tools" id="id-4.-token-used-for-infrastructure-access-and-tools"></a>

$TAIRO grants access to advanced registry features, custom server names, integrations, and supports scaling for complex operations.

**Upcoming Features:** → Custom domain registration for MCP servers and endpoints → Tiered access for observability, advanced publishing, and higher rate limits → Direct integrations with EVM chains, offchain APIs, and automation triggers

### 5. Governance & Community Funding <a href="#id-5.-governance-and-community-funding" id="id-5.-governance-and-community-funding"></a>

Token holders make and vote on proposals, shape upgrades, allocate funding, and set major protocol rules.

**Upcoming Features:** → Community-managed grant programs and bounties for open-source modules → Governance-based upgrades → Registry improvements decided by onchain proposals

### 6. Supergraph Expands with New Tools & Modules <a href="#id-6.-supergraph-expands-with-new-tools-and-modules" id="id-6.-supergraph-expands-with-new-tools-and-modules"></a>

Ecosystem-funded projects such as diagnostic utilities, templates, and new agent types are integrated into Tairon's registry, providing teams with a wider range of tools to build and deploy.

**Upcoming Features:** → MCP module and agent marketplace → Data marketplace for endpoint-generated datasets → Public goods tooling funded via community voting

Each new feature deepens $TAIRO's utility and accelerates the flywheel: publishing drives infrastructure demand, which increases rewards, unlocks new tools, and enables further governance and funding. This system keeps Tairon's participation, incentives, and innovation directly tied to token usage.
