Token Utility

1. Node Staking

NOX is required to operate a node on the NONOS network:

Purpose	Requirement
Minimum stake	1,000 NOX
Higher tiers	10,000 - 1,000,000 NOX
Economic security	Stake at risk for misbehavior

2. Reward Distribution

Node operators earn NOX rewards:

• Daily emissions from the reward pool

• Proportional to stake and quality

• Claimable weekly (per epoch)

3. Governance (Planned)

Future governance capabilities:

• Protocol parameter voting

• Upgrade proposals

• Treasury management

4. Priority Services (Planned)

Higher tier stakers may receive:

• Priority routing

• Enhanced features

• Premium support

Smart Contract Features

ERC-20 Standard

Full compatibility with all ERC-20 infrastructure:

// Standard ERC-20 functions
function totalSupply() external view returns (uint256);
function balanceOf(address account) external view returns (uint256);
function transfer(address to, uint256 amount) external returns (bool);
function allowance(address owner, address spender) external view returns (uint256);
function approve(address spender, uint256 amount) external returns (bool);
function transferFrom(address from, address to, uint256 amount) external returns (bool);

EIP-2612 Permit

Gasless approvals for better UX:

// Permit function - approve via signature
function permit(
    address owner,
    address spender,
    uint256 value,
    uint256 deadline,
    uint8 v,
    bytes32 r,
    bytes32 s
) external;

// Get permit nonce
function nonces(address owner) external view returns (uint256);

// Domain separator for EIP-712
function DOMAIN_SEPARATOR() external view returns (bytes32);

Benefits:

• No separate approval transaction needed

• Saves gas for users

• Better DeFi integration

• Improved UX for staking

UUPS Upgradeable

The contract uses the UUPS proxy pattern:

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│                    UPGRADEABLE ARCHITECTURE                         │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

    User Interaction

           ▼
    ┌─────────────┐
    │Implementation│ ◄── Upgradeable logic
    │   Contract   │
    └─────────────┘

    Upgrade Process:
    1. Deploy new implementation
    2. Governance proposal
    3. Timelock period
    4. Execute upgrade
    5. New logic active, state preserved

Security:

• Only authorized upgraders can upgrade

• Timelock on upgrades

• Transparent upgrade events
