RoboVM Token Use Cases

Real-world applications and scenarios for the RoboVM (RVM) token.

Payment Scenarios​

1. Task Completion Rewards​

Scenario: Robot completes mapping mission

Task: "Map warehouse floor 2"
Reward: 100 RVM

Robot completes task → Receives 100 RVM

2. Data Purchase​

Scenario: Robot needs map data from another robot

Robot A: Has updated map of area X
Robot B: Needs map data

Robot B pays 10 RVM → Receives map data

3. Resource Sharing​

Scenario: Multiple robots share charging station

Robot A: Reserves charging slot
Robot B: Pays 5 RVM for priority access

Staking Scenarios​

1. Reputation Building​

Scenario: New robot joins network

Robot stakes 100 RVM
├─ Proves commitment
├─ Unlocks higher-value tasks
└─ Earns 5% APR (5 RVM/year)

2. Task Qualification​

Scenario: High-value task requires stake

Task: "Critical emergency response"
Requirement: 500 RVM stake

Robot stakes 500 RVM → Qualifies for task

3. Fraud Prevention​

Scenario: Robot attempts fraudulent result

Robot submits fake result
├─ Stake slashed (500 RVM burned)
├─ Reputation decreased
└─ Banned from network

Governance Scenarios​

1. Protocol Upgrade​

Scenario: Community proposes new feature

Proposal: "Add machine learning rewards"
├─ Requires 1,000 RVM to propose
├─ Voting period: 7 days
├─ Quorum: 100,000 RVM votes
└─ Result: Approved → Feature added

2. Parameter Adjustment​

Scenario: Adjust reward rates

Proposal: "Increase task rewards by 10%"
├─ Stake holders vote
├─ Majority approves
└─ Smart contract updated

Economic Scenarios​

1. Robot Fleet Management​

Scenario: Company operates 10 robots

Company:
├─ Holds 10,000 RVM tokens
├─ Distributes to robots as needed
├─ Tracks performance via reputation
└─ Participates in governance

2. Task Marketplace​

Scenario: Dynamic pricing based on demand

High demand area:
├─ Task reward: 200 RVM (increased)
├─ Multiple robots bid
└─ Best bid wins

Low demand area:
├─ Task reward: 50 RVM (standard)
└─ Fewer bids

3. Cross-Robot Collaboration​

Scenario: Complex mission requires multiple robots

Mission: "Map entire building"
├─ Robot A: Floor 1 (50 RVM)
├─ Robot B: Floor 2 (50 RVM)
├─ Robot C: Floor 3 (50 RVM)
└─ Total: 150 RVM distributed

Integration Examples​

With External Services​

# Robot pays for cloud processing
def pay_for_processing(data, cost_rx):
    # Transfer RVM to service provider
    robo_token.transfer(service_address, cost_rx)
    
    # Use service
    result = cloud_service.process(data)
    return result

With IoT Devices​

# Robot pays sensor network for data
def access_sensor_network(area, duration):
    cost = calculate_cost(duration)  # in RVM
    robo_token.transfer(sensor_network_address, cost)
    
    # Access granted
    data = sensor_network.get_data(area)
    return data

Future Use Cases​

1. NFT Robot Identity​

  • Each robot has unique NFT
  • NFT holders earn bonus RVM
  • Transferable ownership

2. Insurance Pool​

  • Robots contribute RVM to insurance pool
  • Payouts for damages or failures
  • Risk-based pricing

3. Research Grants​

  • Researchers propose studies
  • Community votes with RVM
  • Grants distributed in RVM
