Venice Token Mechanics and What VVV Represents for TenX

Venice.ai operates a consumer artificial intelligence application and developer API, supporting AI models across text, image, video, and audio. VVV is an ERC-20 token associated with the Venice.ai platform and can be staked to receive sVVV, which earns VVV emissions. sVVV can be locked to mint DIEM, a separate token that, per Venice's published documentation, provides US$1 in daily Venice API credits per staked DIEM. The company emphasised that VVV is not equity in Venice.ai, carries no governance rights, and does not represent a general claim on Venice.ai's revenue or enterprise value.
