Zero Gravity (0G)

0G is a modular AI infrastructure protocol designed to power scalable, decentralized artificial intelligence applications. It provides a unified architecture that combines:

• Decentralized data availability
• High-throughput storage
• Verifiable AI compute

Unlike traditional blockchains optimized for financial transactions, 0G is purpose-built to support AI-native applications that require large data throughput, low latency, and scalable computation. 0G aims to serve as a foundational infrastructure layer for on-chain AI systems.

0G operates using a validator-based Proof-of-Stake model.  Token holders stake the native 0G token to validators who are responsible for:

• Securing the network
• Validating transactions
• Maintaining consensus
• Supporting data availability and protocol integrity

Delegators assign their tokens to validators like Figment and earn staking rewards proportional to their stake, minus validator commission.

Staking rewards are paid in the native 0G token and are funded through protocol-defined emissions and network incentives.

Reward rates depend on:

• Total network stake
• Validator performance
• Protocol-defined emission schedules

Validators must maintain uptime and operational reliability to maximize reward distribution.

Yes. When initiating an unstake, 0G tokens enter a 7 Day cooldown period before they can be fully withdrawn and transferred. This lockup supports network stability and prevents rapid stake fluctuations.

Yes. 0G includes slashing penalties for validator misbehavior, such as:

• Extended downtime
• Double-signing or consensus violations
