FAQ

Do free models really cost nothing?

Yes. You only need to hold 5,000 ENERGY across your wallet, vault and liquidity pool stake. Nothing is spent per request.

Why is my API call rejected with 402?

Either your vault can't cover a paid request, or you hold less than 5,000 ENERGY for a free model. The error message says which. See Errors.

Is ENERGY a token?

Yes, a transferable ERC-20 with 18 decimals. Only the staking contract and the store can mint it, and the vault burns what the API uses.

Can I sell ENERGY back for USDG?

Not to the store: it only sells. You can stake it in the Liquidity Pool to earn USDG from other people's purchases.

Is the Liquidity Pool safe from the team?

The pool contract has no owner and no admin functions. Nobody can move your ENERGY or pause withdrawals.

Can I get my STARDUST back early?

No. Each position is locked for the period you chose. The 1-day Flex tier gives the most flexibility.

When is Flash-01 on the API?

It will show up in GET /v1/models when it is served. The open weights are already on Hugging Face.

Where are the official addresses?

Only on the Smart contracts page. Ignore addresses sent to you in DMs.
