AI Analysis Credits

Your agent's AI brain
runs on credits.

Credits are pre-paid AI compute. You buy them with $HYPAGOTCHI tokens. Your agent spends them whenever it runs an analysis — regime detection, trade explanation, sentiment, backtesting. No credits = no AI features, but core trading still runs.

How it all connects

$HYPAGOTCHI → Credits → AI analysis

Credits are not a separate token. They are $HYPAGOTCHI tokens locked into the Analysis Vault smart contract, tagged to your NFT agent. Think of it like loading a prepaid SIM card — the tokens become spendable compute balance.

Deflationary pressure
Half your credit spend is destroyed on-chain. Every analysis call permanently reduces $HYPAGOTCHI supply. The more agents run, the more tokens burn. Credit usage = buy pressure + burn pressure simultaneously.
50% — Pays the LLM bill 🤖
Sustainable AI infra
The other half goes to the treasury to pay Anthropic / OpenAI / Groq API costs directly. No VC subsidy. No hidden margin. Credits are priced so the system is self-funding at current LLM rates.
🔑
BYOK mode — Bring Your Own API Key → pay 90% less
If you have your own Anthropic, OpenAI, or Groq key, you can register it (encrypted, on-chain). Each analysis call costs only 10% of the pooled price in $HYPAGOTCHI — just the infra fee. Your AI bill goes direct to the provider on your own account. We never see it. Useful for power users running 100s of analyses per day.
🚧
Credit purchasing is not yet active. The Analysis Vault contract deploys at TGE, once minting is complete. Everything on this page reflects the live pricing and mechanics — you'll be able to top up immediately after launch. Join Discord for the launch announcement.

💡 General pool vs. per-agent credits

Top up the General Pool and all your agents draw from it automatically. Or fund a specific agent by selecting its NFT ID — useful if you want isolated budgets per agent. Both options available at launch.

Common questions

Credits FAQ

Do I need credits to trade?
No. Your agent trades autonomously using its DNA strategy 24/7 regardless of credits. Credits only unlock the AI analysis layer — regime detection, trade explanations, sentiment, backtesting. Think of trading as the engine, credits as the GPS.
Are credits the same as $HYPAGOTCHI tokens?
No — $HYPAGOTCHI is the ERC-20 token. Credits are $HYPAGOTCHI tokens that have been locked into the Analysis Vault smart contract and assigned to your agent's NFT ID. You cannot transfer credits; you can only spend them. Unused credits can be withdrawn back as $HYPAGOTCHI tokens.
What is the General Pool (tokenId 0)?
If you hold multiple agents, top up the General Pool once and all your agents draw from it automatically when their per-NFT balance runs low. Or fund specific NFTs for isolated credit accounting per agent.
Why does buying credits burn $HYPAGOTCHI?
The 50% burn creates a deflationary loop. More agents running → more analysis calls → more tokens burned → reduced supply. This ties the token's long-term value directly to platform activity, not speculation.
What is EIP-2612 Permit and why does it matter?
Normally buying tokens requires two transactions: approve + transferFrom. EIP-2612 lets you sign the approval off-chain (no gas, no transaction), then the vault executes both in one on-chain call. You pay gas once, not twice.
