  • How do I get started with iChain?

    To get started with iChain, join our Discord server where we track IOUs and facilitate community discussions. Download our code from the repository, make any necessary edits, and submit a pull request to contribute. Invite your friends to join and earn rewards: $10 for signing up and $5 for each referral they bring.

  • What is the purpose of the Discord server?

    The Discord server serves as our initial IOU tracking system until we have a properly developed Rust program on Solana. Once the program is ready, we will mint the dues. Additionally, the server is a place to participate in data drives and prepare data folders for future monetization.

  • How can I earn SGC tokens on iChain?

    Users can earn SGC tokens by contributing various types of data, providing compute power for the iChain network, or offering storage space. Tokens can be exchanged for other cryptocurrencies, used to purchase services, or reinvested into the platform.

  • What types of data can I contribute to iChain?

    iChain accepts various types of data, including text, images, audio, medical records, CCTV footage, and more. The data is anonymized and packaged for sale to AI developers.

  • What happens if I don't renew my participation after one year?

    If you choose not to renew your participation, you will no longer earn SGC tokens for your contributions. However, your existing tokens and any data you have contributed will remain in the system.

  • What payment methods are supported for purchasing additional services on iChain?
