Storage Units as Currency

Just like with digital data, the Obyte network uses storage units as the basis for value:

• 1 KByte = 1.000 Bytes
• 1 MByte = 1.000.000 Bytes
• 1 GBYTE = 1.000.000.000 Bytes

Exchanges and tickers use “GBYTE” as the official unit.

💡 A simple transaction usually costs only a few hundred bytes – just a tiny fraction of a GBYTE.

Transaction Fees – Fair and Transparent

Obyte doesn’t charge flat network fees.
You pay exactly the number of bytes your action takes up in the DAG.
That makes transactions transparent, efficient, and easy to understand.

Fixed Max Supply – No Inflation

The total supply is capped at 1,000,000 GBYTE.
No inflation, no mining, no hidden reserves.
Obyte is built on principles of scarcity and sustainability.

What Do You Need GBYTE For?

GBYTE is more than just a means of payment. You use it to:

• Send and receive transactions
• Store data on the DAG
• Run Autonomous Agents (AAs)
• Participate in governance votes
• Help decide key network parameters

As you can see, GBYTE is incredibly versatile – which is exactly why it’s so important to the Obyte ecosystem.

Conclusion

GBYTE is more than just a coin – it stands for participation, innovation, and real-world use.
Obyte isn’t about hype or buzzwords – it’s about building something that works: open, decentralized, and tangible.
