ASK Token

🪙 ASK Token

Introduction

ASK is the native token of the Permission ecosystem. It is the economic layer that enables trust, consent, and value exchange in an AI-driven world.

As AI systems become more present in everyday life, Permission is building infrastructure that ensures people and families remain active participants, not passive inputs. ASK makes that possible by tying participation to consent, incentives, and accountability.

ASK enables a system where:

• Participation is intentional

• Incentives are aligned

• Trust is verifiable

When individuals engage through Permission-powered experiences, ASK provides a transparent mechanism for rewards, coordination, and alignment across people, platforms, and AI systems. It is how Permission moves AI interactions from opaque to accountable.

Token Utility

ASK functions as the connective layer between humans, agents, and AI systems across the Permission ecosystem.

It enables:

• Incentives & Rewards ASK supports incentive mechanisms that reinforce positive, value-aligned behaviors. In family contexts, ASK is used to motivate learning, responsibility, and healthy digital habits. Across the broader ecosystem, it enables participation without exploitation.

• Agent-to-Agent (A2A) Coordination ASK powers permissioned, auditable value exchange between AI agents operating within the Permission Protocol. It allows agents to coordinate actions, request participation, and settle interactions transparently.

• Ecosystem Alignment Developers, integrators, and ecosystem contributors may earn or use ASK as they help expand Permission-powered products, experiences, and infrastructure.

• Governance & Staking (Future) Over time, ASK will support protocol governance and participation-based mechanisms designed to align long-term stakeholders with the health of the ecosystem.

Token Supply & Allocation

ASK has a fixed supply of 100,000,000,000 tokens, with distribution designed to support long-term ecosystem health, contributor alignment, and widespread participation.

Token unlocks are designed to align with real-world adoption and platform usage. Core team and advisor allocations are subject to long-term vesting, while ecosystem rewards unlock dynamically as new Permission-powered products and participation models come online.

See ASK Tokenomics for details.

This structure ensures that the majority of tokens support active participants — those who help build, use, and grow the Permission ecosystem.

Multichain Native

ASK is deployed as an OFT (Omnichain Fungible Token) via LayerZero, enabling seamless cross-chain movement while preserving a unified supply. It is live on Stargate, supporting gas-efficient bridging and integrated liquidity.

Active Networks:

• Base: 0xBB146326778227A8498b105a18f84E0987A684b4

• Polygon: 0xaA3717090CDDc9B227e49d0D84A28aC0a996e6Ff

ASK will expand to additional EVM-compatible chains in step with ecosystem demand.

A Token for a More Trustworthy Internet

ASK is not just a reward. It is a mechanism for a more accountable AI.

As AI systems increasingly influence learning, behavior, and decision-making, ASK ensures that participation is grounded in consent and that incentives are transparent. It connects value to responsibility, and innovation to trust.

ASK enables a shift:

• From extraction to participation

• From opacity to accountability

• From surveillance to agency

Every ASK-powered interaction reinforces the idea that AI should work within human-defined values, not outside of them.

That is the role ASK plays in the Permission ecosystem.
