CPT

The compute-backed stablecoin at the heart of the 100X Protocol.

What Is CPT

CPT is a stablecoin minted 1:1 against USDC. The USDC backing is deployed into diversified yield-bearing strategies, and the yield funds AI compute perpetually. CPT is the primary asset of the 100X ecosystem. You hold it for access to protocol-built software, use it to vote on what gets built, and stake it in causes for boosted yield and amplified voting power.

How It Works

You send USDC to the protocol and receive CPT. The USDC enters a permanent reserve deployed across diversified yield-bearing strategies. The reserve operates like a university endowment: deposits grow the principal, and only the yield is spent. The principal compounds permanently, and the yield funds compute.

Every CPT minted grows the endowment. As AI compute costs decline over time, the same reserve funds increasingly more output. CPT is freely tradeable on DEX liquidity pools, with the protocol maintaining deep CPT/USDC liquidity.

Stake in Causes

CPT can be staked into cause-specific pools to earn boosted yield from software revenue and gain amplified voting power within that cause. Staking represents a deeper commitment to a specific domain, trading breadth for depth. Unstaking returns CPT (not USDC) after a cooldown period.

DeFi Composability

CPT is designed to be composable across DeFi:

• DEX liquidity: Provide liquidity in CPT/USDC pools and earn trading fees
• Lending collateral: Use CPT as collateral on lending markets to borrow without selling (maintaining your access threshold)
• Yield markets: Cause-staked positions can be split into principal and yield tokens, enabling trading of AI software revenue yield
