What is the POKT Token? How to Trade POKT Perptual Futures?
POKT (Pocket Network) is specifically designed for Web3 The decentralized blockchain API protocol for application building aims to provide low-cost, censorship-resistant RPC (Remote Procedure Call) data services for DApps through a globally distributed network of nodes (covering over 50 mainstream blockchains). Its core mechanism requires node operators to stake POKT tokens to provide relay services, while users pay POKT to access blockchain data. The protocol allocates 89% of each relay income to node operators, 1% to validators, and 10% to the community-managed Pocket DAO, forming an economic closed loop. Compared to centralized services like Infura, POKT can reduce costs by 80% while providing 99.99% high availability, becoming a key infrastructure for the multi-chain ecosystem.

- 2025: The expected price range is $0.03 - $0.045, with an average price of $0.04, which is basically flat compared to the current level.
- 2030: The conservative forecast rises to $0.06, while the optimistic model sees it bullish to $0.1.

Future Outlook of the Project: Deflationary Economy and Ecological Expansion
POKT is promoting the token towards deflation through the “UltraSound Infrastructure” plan, with an expected inflation rate dropping below 2% by the end of 2024, and achieving net deflation in 2025. On the technical level, the Shannon upgrade in June 2024 will optimize the on-chain token burn and issuance mechanism, enhancing the efficiency of the economic model.
In terms of ecological expansion, the Gateway strategy (such as collaborating with companies like Infura) is expanding protocol demand, aiming to exceed 1 trillion relays by 2024. In the future, POKT plans to expand its service scenarios from RPC to social media databases and AI large model data support, further consolidating its position in Web3 infrastructure.
