Question 1

What is NUMI, and what rights do holders receive?

Accepted Answer

NUMI is the NUMINE Token. The official documentation defines it as an ERC-20 utility token used to incentivize participation in the NUMINE Network and describes it as the governance token of the NUMINE platform. NUMINE serves content such as games, video, music, and books, so NUMI’s role should be understood within that content network and ecosystem. Calling a token a “governance token” does not by itself mean that holders automatically have a particular voting right, revenue right, or ownership right in assets. Public token materials do not list a voting process, proposal threshold, or voting-power calculation; the official disclaimer also states that holding NUMINE does not grant decision-making rights over assets and business strategy or promise an investment return. Therefore, holding NUMI alone cannot establish undisclosed governance or economic rights.

Question 2

How should NUMI’s supply cap and unlock schedule be understood?

Accepted Answer

NUMI has a designed total supply of 1 billion tokens. Total supply is the full number of tokens preset by the protocol; it is not the number already circulating, tradable, or immediately available to holders in a particular allocation category at a given time. Those amounts also depend on each category’s TGE unlock and subsequent vesting progress. The official schedule is: seed and private-sale allocations unlock 0% at TGE, each then has a 12-month cliff followed by 10 months of vesting; presale unlocks 25% at TGE and then vests over 9 months; community and ecosystem, partners and advisors, and reserve each unlock 5% at TGE and then vest over 60 months; the team unlocks 0% at TGE, has a 1-month cliff, and then vests over 50 months; liquidity and exchange-listing allocations unlock 100% at TGE. A cliff means no tokens are released under the vesting schedule during that period: for example, the seed allocation has no scheduled unlock during the first 12 months after TGE, and only then enters its 10-month vesting period. Vesting describes the planned pace at which allocation categories become available; it does not by itself prove actual market circulation, whether holders will sell, or how the price may change.

Question 3

What is NUMINE L1, and how does it relate to Ethereum-like networks?

Accepted Answer

NUMINE L1 is NUMINE’s mainnet. Official documentation describes it as a proof-of-stake (PoS) network running in Avalanche L1 (Subnet) with an EVM-compatible environment. Its mainnet Chain ID is 8021; this identifier lets wallets and applications distinguish it from other EVM networks. EVM compatibility means developers can use Ethereum-ecosystem tools such as Solidity to deploy and interact with smart contracts, but NUMINE’s public network guide also states that only authorized addresses can create contracts. Thus, “EVM compatible” does not mean every address can deploy without conditions. PoS is the network’s consensus mechanism; it describes how validators participate in maintaining the network, but it does not establish that NUMI holders can directly stake, become validators, or receive rewards, because public materials do not provide the qualifications, amounts, or settlement rules for those activities.

Question 4

Can NUMI be used directly as gas on NUMINE L1, and why must networks be distinguished?

Accepted Answer

NUMI and the NUMINE L1 gas asset should not be treated as the same thing. The network configuration lists numine as NUMINE L1’s currency symbol, while the network overview lists NUMI as an ERC-20 token on that chain; therefore, a NUMI token balance on the chain does not automatically equal the native-asset balance required to pay that network’s transaction fees. NUMI also has versions on Ethereum, Avalanche C-Chain, BNB Smart Chain, and NUMINE L1. Before transferring, swapping, or connecting to an application, separately verify the selected network, the network supported by the recipient, and the asset in the wallet used to pay that network’s transaction fees; matching token symbols do not replace these network-specific conditions.

Question 5

How do I bridge NUMI between networks, and what do fees and confirmations mean?

Accepted Answer

Moving NUMI between networks should use a bridge route that supports the relevant source and destination chains, rather than directly sending tokens on one chain to an address on another chain. The official network overview lists the Ethereum version as bridged through Avalanche C-Chain or BSC; the Avalanche C-Chain version can be bridged through Ethereum, BSC, or NUMINE L1; and the BSC version can be bridged through Ethereum or Avalanche C-Chain. The official NUMINE Bridge states that its bridging is supported by the LayerZero and Avalanche Teleporter Bridge protocols. In the process, the user connects a wallet, selects the amount to send and the destination address, then performs Approve, authorizing the bridge contract to handle tokens up to the set amount, and Confirm, confirming that the transaction should begin; network confirmations must then be awaited. A successful approval does not mean bridging is complete; the cross-chain processing after confirmation determines when assets become available on the destination network. Bridge fees vary by token and destination network. Official documentation says the fee covers bridging transaction costs and instructs users to review the fee shown in the interface before submission. If the destination address, source network, destination network, or asset is selected incorrectly, an on-chain transaction generally cannot be withdrawn by the bridge operator like a traditional transfer; these conditions should therefore be checked one by one before confirmation.

Question 6

What is the difference between transaction fees, application sponsorship, and bridge fees when using NUMI?

Accepted Answer

NUMINE’s public materials describe a low-fee experience as NUMINE App sponsoring transaction fees, rather than declaring that “NUMI has permanently zero fees.” Network-level transaction fees, fees an application pays for a user, and bridge fees are different layers of cost: even where an application use case is sponsored, a cross-chain bridge may still display a fee by token and destination network. Accordingly, the actual cost paid by a user depends on the network and function being used: ordinary on-chain operations must meet that network’s transaction-fee conditions; where an application provides sponsorship, whether it applies depends on that application’s rules; and bridging is subject to the fee displayed on the bridge page before submission. “Low fee” or “sponsorship” cannot establish that every NUMI transfer, swap, or cross-chain operation is free.
