4. Application

The Livepeer Token (LPT) is the protocol token of the Livepeer network. But it is not the medium of exchange token. Broadcasters use Ethereum's Ether (ETH) to broadcast video on the network. Nodes who contribute processing and bandwidth earn ETH in the form of fees from broadcasters. LPT is a staking token that participants who want to perform work on the network stake in order to coordinate how work gets distributed on the network, and to provide security that the work will get done honestly and correctly.

There is no upper limit on the issuance of tokens, and it is an inflation model. The daily inflation is about 0.0225%, and about 5225 tokens are newly produced every day. The inflation rate changes dynamically based on the staking rate. Its utilities are: staking rewards, agency, work equity.
