The National Data Bureau is personally stepping in to promote the token economy, using tokens as the measurement and settlement unit for AI services. This development is happening faster than expected. Next, high-quality datasets and a nationwide integrated computing power network are the two main focuses, signaling that the deep-water reform of market-based data element allocation is underway.

National Data Bureau Holds Token Economy Symposium, with Alibaba Cloud, Tencent, and other companies offering opinions on promoting the healthy and sustainable development of the token economy and releasing the value of data elements.
Tokens are the smallest computational units used by large models to process text, code, images, audio, video, and other information, and are becoming the measurement, settlement, and statistical units for AI services.
The meeting stated that promoting the development of the token economy will be incorporated into the work system, with continuous tracking, research, and absorption of suggestions from all sectors of society, focusing on high-quality data set construction and the national integrated computing power network, to advance the reform of market-based allocation of data elements and promote high-quality development of the token economy.
