Silencio is a decentralized infrastructure layer for smartphone-generated data. Silencio rewards users for contributing data, turning everyday smartphone activity into a passive income stream. All data is sourced with on-chain user consent, ensuring transparency and trust.

History

Asset Function

The SLC tokenomics are as follows:

• Emission Schedule: Monthly raffles distribute tokens (541m SLC) to contributors
• Buyback & Burn Strategy (Coming Soon): Revenue from data sales will fuel token burns to reduce supply
• Staking Rewards: Incentivizes long-term participation
• Unclaimed rewards are recycled or burned

How SLC drives the Silencio’s ecosystem:

• Businesses purchase data using SLC, creating demand for the token
• Contributors earn SLC by providing noise and location data via smartphones
• Token holders stake SLC to unlock premium features (upcoming) and boost raffle odds
• Revenue reinvested into buybacks, burns (future strategy), and community rewards
