ALIENX Chain Fundamentals
ALIENX Chain is the only high-performance staking public chain driven by AI nodes. The project is jointly launched by AlienSwap, Offchain Labs, and Caldera. ALIENX plays a crucial role in the underlying infrastructure of the blockchain by integrating decentralized blockchain nodes with AI technology.
Financing and Team
ALIENX has completed two rounds of financing, raising a total of $17 million with a valuation of $200 million. Major investment institutions include OKX Ventures, C²Ventures, Next Leader Capital, and other top-tier organizations. The project team members come from top internet companies such as Google, as well as top universities such as New York University, Nanyang Technological University, and the University of Hong Kong.
AI Nodes - AI Node
The total number of AI Nodes in ALIENX Chain is 50,000, deployed on Arbitrum. Participants need to purchase a license to run nodes and participate in the ALIENX Chain network. The node price will increase with market demand and levels, meaning that the earlier the purchase, the lower the price. AI Nodes can participate in the observation and maintenance of ALIENX nodes, provide early warnings and use backup solutions when the network encounters anomalies. Through AI Nodes, ALIENX can deeply integrate DApps with AI, providing users with a better experience.
AI Nodes enhance the security and intelligence of the network and achieve high performance for blockchain networks to meet the needs of large-scale applications such as NFTs and blockchain games. AI Nodes are open for community operation, increasing the decentralization of ALIENX. Users can purchase and participate in operating AI Nodes to receive token incentives.
AIX
AIX is the token of ALIENX Chain. Within five years, 40% of the tokens will be allocated to AI Nodes. Additionally, tokens will be allocated for native staking rewards, user airdrops, and income sharing from gas fees (activated 180 days after the mainnet launch).
The operating cost of AI Nodes is very low, and the operation is simple. Ordinary cloud servers or personal computers only need to support the Chrome browser to install and run the nodes. Running nodes can receive a 40% token reward. In the future, node trading and transfer functions will also be available.
Node Sale Coming Soon
AI Node sales will be conducted in two rounds: whitelist and public sales. Whitelist participants can purchase at a discounted price, and ETH or SOL can be used for the purchase.
Whitelist Sale Time: April 12, 18:00
Public Sale Time: April 14, 18:00
Mainnet Launch Time: June 2024
Node Price: Determined by tiers, a total of 30 tiers
Specific prices are shown in the following figure:
Based on the official prices, as the number of nodes sold increases, the price also increases. For lower-tier users, there are purchase restrictions:
Grades 1-2: Maximum 2 nodes per wallet
Grades 3-4: Maximum 4 nodes per wallet
Grades 5-6: Maximum 10 nodes per wallet
Grades 7-8: Maximum 20 nodes per wallet
Grades 9-10: Maximum 40 nodes per wallet
There are no purchase restrictions for the remaining tiers. In other words, the earlier the purchase, the more cost advantages there are.
How to Obtain Whitelist Qualification
There are four main ways to obtain AI Node whitelist qualification:
Automatically obtain whitelist qualification by ranking in the top 1000 of the vAIX leaderboard. Users in the top 5000 can get a 5% discount on node purchases.
Ten users will be randomly selected by the official team to receive whitelist qualification for free.
Obtain qualification through invitation code sharing.
Holding Alienverse Genesis Pass grants Tier 3 whitelist qualification, while holding 3 ALIENX Explorer Passes grants Tier 4 whitelist qualification.

Node Reservation Discount
For users who want to purchase AI Nodes, participating in early reservations is a good choice. Participants only need to pay 0.01 ETH or 0.15 SOL to lock in the purchase of nodes. By combining reservations with whitelists, more discounts can be obtained. The main advantages of node reservations are:
Double presale rewards for purchasing nodes later.
If you do not purchase or decide not to purchase nodes, the deposit will be 100% refunded without any additional costs.
500 Tier 4 and 500 Tier 5 whitelists will be randomly assigned to participants in the presale.
Reservation time: April 4th to April 8th, 24:00 (UTC+8). Payment must be made using your own wallet and cannot be made through centralized exchanges. Currently, more than 10,000 wallets have participated in the reservation process.
Reservation tutorial:
- Open the node reservation website and log in with Metamask wallet.
https://alienxchain.io/ainode/whitelist
- On the right side of the webpage, click on the AI Node reservation link and click "GO NOW" to complete the transfer using your own wallet.
Since the presale deposit can be 100% refunded, there is basically no cost involved. For users planning to purchase nodes, it is highly recommended to lock in discounts through presale deposits. Currently, more than 10,000 wallets have participated in the reservation process, indicating strong community interest in node reservations.
Earnings Estimation
ALIENX has raised $17 million from institutions such as OKX. Node earnings are closely related to the number of nodes sold. The more nodes sold, the higher the valuation of ALIENX Chain, and the lower the individual node's return rate, and vice versa.
Assuming all nodes are sold, the project's valuation could conservatively reach over $1 billion. The total token supply has not been disclosed, but we know that 40% of the tokens will be allocated to AI Nodes over five years, which amounts to $400 million worth of AIX tokens.
With 50,000 AI Nodes in Alienx, each node can roughly receive 8,000 units of token rewards. The price of each node ranges from 0.1 ETH to 1.86 ETH. Considering the discounts from reservations, the cost ranges from 300 to 6,200 units. Even at the highest cost, running nodes can still generate profits. At the lowest cost, the return rate can reach 26 times.
If only half (25,000) of the nodes are sold, the conservative valuation of the project could exceed $500 million, with node rewards totaling over $200 million. At this point, each node's token reward is 8,000 units, and the highest price is 0.56 ETH, reaching Tier 11. The minimum return rate for operating nodes is 4.8 times.
In addition to block rewards, nodes also include gas income, which can affect the value of tokens. This has not been taken into account. Furthermore, the above data is a conservative estimate and represents fully circulating valuation. Considering the development of mechanisms and the ecosystem, there is a higher possibility of a higher project valuation, resulting in higher actual returns.
Conclusion
AI Nodes play a crucial role in the infrastructure of ALIENX Chain and represent an important attempt at underlying innovation. AI Nodes have numerous applications in integrating DApps and blockchain games. Therefore, there is a high demand for AI Nodes in the market.
With a total of 50,000 AI Nodes, more project dividends can be distributed to individual participants, further decentralizing ALIENX and enhancing the security, stability, and resilience of the ALIENX network. Currently, more than 10,000 wallets have participated in node reservations, reflecting market recognition of ALIENX!
In the future, AI will be a significant driving force in the technology and cryptocurrency markets. By combining AI concepts, ALIENX can stay at the forefront of innovation and lead the deep integration of the cryptocurrency market and AI!
