As we move deeper into 2026, the demand for decentralized AI data storage isn't just growing, it’s exploding. To capture the multi-billion dollar AI market, the OORT network needs one thing above all else: massive, persistent scale.

Today, the OORT Asian Pacific Alliance (OAPA) is stepping forward with a landmark governance proposal designed to reward our most loyal hardware providers and ensure the Deimos I fleet remains the backbone of the global AI data engine.

The Proposal: Slashing Renewal Costs

To ensure that every Deimos I operator can stay online sustainably, OAPA proposes a strategic shift in our fee structure. We want to lower the barrier for long-term participation, moving from a high-margin fee model to a high-volume utility model.

Why Now?

The math is simple: lower renewal fees mean better ROI for miners. Better ROI means more active nodes. More active nodes mean OORT can handle larger AI workloads from global enterprises. This isn't just a discount; it’s a growth engine.

The"Skin in the Game

This proposal is built on the principle of Mutual Commitment. For this fee reduction to be ratified, the community must prove its long-term belief in the ecosystem.

For the 10 USDT renewal fee to be activated, two conditions must be met:

  1. Majority Support: "YES" votes must exceed "NO" votes.
  2. Staking Power: The "YES" camp must reach a minimum threshold of 6,000,000 $OORT.

The Commitment Mechanism

To ensure this move strengthens the $OORT tokenomics, the fee reduction will only go live once all tokens that voted "YES" are transferred to the official governance vault for a one-year lock-up period.

Governance & Activation Details

If the vote passes, the 10 USDT renewal fee will be activated immediately upon the successful verification of the full "YES" vote transfer to the lock-up address.

Your Voice, Your Network

This is a defining moment for the OORT Edge network. Do we maintain the status quo, or do we aggressively scale to meet the AI demand?
