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.
Fundraising and Team
ALIENX has completed two rounds of fundraising, 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 prestigious 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, providing early warnings and backup solutions in case of network 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 distributed for native staking rewards, user airdrops, and revenue sharing from gas fees (activated 180 days after the mainnet launch).
AI Nodes have very low operating costs and are easy to operate. They can be installed and run on regular cloud servers or personal computers that support the Chrome browser. Running nodes can receive 40% token rewards. In the future, node trading and transfer functions will be available.
Node Sale Coming Soon
AI Node sales will be conducted in two rounds: whitelist and public sales. Whitelist participants can purchase nodes at a discounted price, using ETH or SOL for payment.
Whitelist Sale Time: April 12, 18:00
Public Sale Time: April 14, 18:00
Mainnet Launch: June 2024
Node Price: Determined by tiers, with a total of 30 tiers
Specific prices are shown in the following image:
Based on the official prices, as the number of nodes sold increases, the price also increases. For lower-tier users, there are limitations on the number of nodes that can be purchased:
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, meaning that earlier purchases have cost advantages.
How to Obtain Whitelist Qualifications
There are four main ways to obtain AI Node whitelist qualifications:
Top 1000 on the vAIX leaderboard automatically receive whitelist qualifications, and the top 5000 on the leaderboard receive a 5% discount on node purchases.
10 users will be randomly selected by the official team to receive free whitelist qualifications.
Qualifications can be obtained through invitation code sharing.
Holding an Alienverse Genesis Pass grants Tier 3 whitelist qualification, and holding 3 ALIENX Explorer Passes grants Tier 4 whitelist qualification.

Node Pre-Order Discounts
For users interested in purchasing AI Nodes, participating in pre-orders 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 pre-orders with whitelist qualifications, more discounts can be obtained. The main advantages of node pre-orders are:
Double pre-sale reward for later node purchases
If a user does not purchase or decides not to purchase nodes, the deposit will be 100% refunded without additional costs.
500 Tier 4 and 500 Tier 5 whitelist qualifications will be randomly allocated to participants in the pre-sale.
Pre-order time: April 4 - April 8, 24:00 (UTC+8). Payment must be made using a personal wallet and cannot be made through centralized exchanges. Currently, more than 10,000 wallets have participated in the pre-order process.
Pre-order Tutorial:
- Open the node pre-order website and log in with Metamask.
https://alienxchain.io/ainode/whitelist
- On the right side of the webpage, click on the AI Node pre-order link and follow the instructions to complete the transfer using your own wallet.
Since the pre-sale deposit can be 100% refunded, there is basically no cost involved. For users planning to purchase nodes, it is highly recommended to use the pre-sale deposit to secure discounts. Currently, more than 10,000 wallets have participated in the pre-order process, indicating strong community interest in node purchases.
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.
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, amounting to $400 million in AIX tokens.
With 50,000 AI nodes in AlienX, each node can roughly receive 8,000 U in token rewards. The price of each node ranges from 0.1 ETH to 1.86 ETH. Considering the pre-order discounts, the cost ranges from 300 U to 6,200 U. Even at the highest cost, running nodes can still generate profits, with a minimum return rate of 26 times.
If only half (25,000) of the nodes are sold, the project's conservative valuation could exceed $500 million, with over $200 million in node rewards. At this point, each node would receive 8,000 U in token rewards, and the highest price would be 0.56 ETH, reaching Tier 11. The minimum return rate for operating nodes would be 4.8 times.
In addition to block rewards, nodes also include gas revenue, which can impact the token's value. This has not been calculated. Furthermore, the above data is a conservative estimate and represents a fully circulating valuation. Considering the project's mechanisms and ecosystem development, there is a higher possibility of a higher market value, 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 benefits can be distributed to retail participants, further decentralizing ALIENX and enhancing the network's security, stability, and resilience. Currently, over 10,000 wallets have participated in node pre-orders, reflecting market recognition of ALIENX!
In the future, AI will be a significant driving force in the technology and crypto markets. By combining AI concepts, ALIENX can stay at the forefront of innovation and lead the integration of the crypto market and AI!
