According to @ErikVoorhees, staking $DIEM on Venice grants a renewing $1 per day of AI compute per token, with access expanded from API-only in September to the web app and leading models like Claude Open 4.5, Gemini 3, Nano Banana Pro, and GPT 5, plus added pseudonymous privacy; source: @ErikVoorhees and the Venice blog post Introducing DIEM as Tokenized Intelligence. According to @ErikVoorhees, $DIEM has posted seven consecutive green weekly candles in a sideways-to-down broader market, with users bidding the price from about $100 to roughly $300 as they purchase tokens to use the daily compute credits; source: @ErikVoorhees. According to @ErikVoorhees and the Venice blog, because 1 DIEM equals $1 in daily credits, a market price near $300 implies roughly 300 days to recoup in credits if fully utilized, anchoring demand until capital costs exceed the utility of AI compute; source: @ErikVoorhees and Venice blog. According to the Venice blog and @ErikVoorhees, $DIEM can only be minted from $VVV, the mint rate rises along an algorithmic exponential curve as supply increases, and minting locks the corresponding $VVV until the same amount of DIEM is repaid and burned; source: Venice blog and @ErikVoorhees. According to @ErikVoorhees, over 6.3 million $VVV (nearly 10% of total supply) are now locked due to DIEM minting, reducing circulating float as DIEM demand grows; source: @ErikVoorhees. According to the Venice blog and @ErikVoorhees, Venice can tune a Target Supply parameter to adjust the mint rate and throttle new DIEM if compute costs rise, while a portion of emissions compensates Venice for providing compute, shaping supply-demand equilibrium relevant to traders; source: Venice blog and @ErikVoorhees.
