Ecosystem participants

Anyone who installs the GRACE Linux driver becomes a direct participant in the ecosystem. The main groups of direct and indirect participants are listed below.

• GRACE CONNECT end users: those using GRACE NET via the app, primarily to speed up their mobile internet. End users can pay for the service in several ways: by staking $GRACE, spending $GRACE, or via regular payment systems.

• Enterprise users: GRACE NET is a particularly good fit for geographically distributed companies, which traditionally spend a lot of money to transfer large volumes of data and whose business processes and corporate security can be dependent on the quality of data transmission.

• Web2 startups: financial infrastructure projects, payment apps, social apps, games, etc. They will have the option to pay for the GRACE NET integration and services using traditional payment methods, without buying or staking $GRACE.

• Web3 startups: exchanges, sovereign blockchains, dApps, bridges, oracles, GameFi projects, NFT marketplaces, exchanges, crypto wallets, DAOs, Digital ID services, and other protocols that integrate GRACE NET to speed up their traffic.

• Resellers: in early 2025, GRACE NET will start developing a franchising network of authorized resellers to promote faster ecosystem growth. These resellers will both offer the B2B solution (potentially under their own brand as a white-label product) and attract B2C app users.

• Regional resellers: as GRACE deploys a network of 32 regional servers across the globe, telecom companies will be able to purchase an exclusive white-label license to each of these 32 hubs to sell GRACE solutions to B2B companies in the corresponding region.

• $GRACE stakers: those who buy and stake $GRACE tokens directly or through yield farms on DEX exchanges. Their role in the ecosystem boils down to limiting the circulating supply of $GRACE and helping its price stability.

• GRACE blockchain nodes and validators: their role will be important once $GRACE staking and rewards move to the new GRACE chain. They will be rewarded for their work through GRACE block rewards and transaction fees.
