TOKEN UTILITY W H I T E P A P E R
Unlike conventional for-profit companies, where owners reap more of the monetary gain and
frequently aim to maximize income at the detriment of their users, the Epsilon search network is built
by and for the community, and each community member is actually charged in the form of Epsilon
for the value they bring to the network. Inside the Epsilon search ecosystem, Epsilon is extremely
useful, and the number of use cases is continuously increasing.
The following are several explanations of Epsilon's usefulness for members of the Epsilon
network.
Token Utility USERS:
Search Rewards: Receive Epsilon as a reward for searches based upon the value their searches
add to the network.
Become an Advertiser: Use Epsilon to display ads on the Epsilon search Platform.
Referral Rewards: Receive Epsilon for introducing new active members to Epsilon search.
Shop: Use Epsilon to make purchases in the Epsilon search store.
Cash Out: Sell Epsilon on public cryptocurrency exchanges to convert to fiat or other
cryptocurrencies.
Ad Blocking (Personal):Use Epsilon to avoid seeing advertisements in results.
Inverse Keyword Staking (Global): Use to Epsilon stake “against” ads they find undesirable. This
increases the cost to advertisers to run ads and reduces advertisers’ ability to spread undesirable
messages to others.
Data Sharing Rewards: Control your data. By default, Epsilon search does not log users’ search
histories in order to fully respect user privacy. However, sharing some of this data can provide
more value to you (better personalization) and to the Epsilon search network (more relevant ads,
ability to learn better relevance algorithms), for which you’ll receive increased rewards if you opt-
in Abuse Reporting
Rewards: Detect and remove abusive ads that violate the Epsilon search Terms of Service. These
should be detected and taken down as soon as possible and, in certain cases, advertisers may
forfeit their keyword stake. In the future, users could be rewarded with some of this forfeited
Epsilon based upon their help identifying these abusive ads.
Search Provider Voting: Stake Epsilon to influence the placement of Search Providers in the
global search providers list.
