What is peaq (PEAQ)?

Peaq is pioneering the integration of peer-to-peer (P2P) technologies within the Economy of Things, utilizing $PEAQ tokenomics to fuel and facilitate self-sufficient systems. By implementing Machine NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens), Decentralized Finance (DeFi), and Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI), Peaq is creating a robust ecosystem where machines can independently render and receive services. This approach drives new economic models that align incentives among all stakeholders—the machines themselves, their owners, manufacturers, individual users, organizations, and investors—by promoting the deployment of more machines on the network. Through its unique tokenomic structure, Peaq incentivizes participation and technological diffusion across its network. The $PEAQ token is pivotal, empowering machines with the ability to economically transact, obtain upgrades, and ensure rapid service delivery while preserving autonomy. Moreover, Peaq’s platform mechanics enhance security, scalability, and sustainability by allowing seamless machine-to-machine and human-to-machine interactions. This autonomous framework not only bolsters the machine economy but also fosters a fair and efficient marketplace of services. As machines become self-sufficient within the Peaq network, stakeholders benefit from reduced operational costs and increased machine utility. The Peaq platform supports these dynamic interactions, underpinned by cutting-edge technical specifications and scalable infrastructure, paving the way for a truly interconnected economy. Peaq's complementary elements—the innovative use of NFTs for asset transfer, DeFi for financial services, and SSI for identity—provide a comprehensive toolkit for the Economy of Things ecosystem, positioning $PEAQ as a cornerstone in the evolution of smart, self-governing machine networks.
