As the Beta phase came to a close on July 6, the Extractor team has shared the outstanding results achieved during this period:

• 140 beta users onboarded
• 92 smart contracts under continuous monitoring
• 12 product updates released, further enhancing the Extractor’s capabilities
• 4 new security features added to strengthen your smart contract security

Building upon the success and momentum gained during the Beta phase, the full release of Hacken Extractor is available to a wider audience of clients, thus empowering the HAI product utility.

HAI-Based Subscription Advantages

Starting February 2023, we introduced two subscription plans for Extractor, which provide payment methods reduction with HAI and Hacken Membership. 

The first subscription allows clients to reduce the initial price to 20% in case of payment in HAI. Thus, using USDT for the subscription will incur an additional cost of +20% of the final price, while the payment made in HAI will save your investments. 

The second subscription plan will be eligible for Hacken Partner, the 3rd program within the Hacken Membership. By becoming Hacken Members of Partner level, clients can enjoy greater advantages while using Extractor and decrease payment both made in USDT or HAI. For an USDT-based subscription, the price is reduced by 10%, and those who pay in HAI get an additional 10% discount, which is summing up with the 20% discount, unlocking a 30% price reduction.  

HAI Impact and Benefits

The implementation of the HAI-based subscription not only enables clients to proceed with a 30% lower price, but it also serves to encourage the purchase of HAI, thereby driving token’s value growth. Additionally, Hacken Partners further benefit from reduced subscription costs by staking 100K HAI and more.

100% of the HAI received as payment for subscriptions will be burned, thereby contributing to the token’s scarcity and long-term value. This mechanism is now a subject of reconsidering and improvement. The decision on the distribution of the received HAI may also be reviewed by hDAO along with the payment plans in pursuit of more incentive to pay for the subscription in HAI token. 

How to Get a HAI-Based Subscription

The HAI-based payment is already full-functioning after the Hacken Extractor full launch. Now, clients are empowered to use Extractor with 30% less price.

On March 1, 2023, we announced the updated HAI Tokenomics that addresses the new strategic track of our Hacken.AI ecosystem: building a public goods community of like-minded individuals who contribute to building Web3 trust, transparency, and security.

For an end-user, Hacken.AI is an X-ray to verify tokens’ reliability through data, tools, and community.

Let’s capture the main points described in the Tokenomics Paper to obtain an overview of the HAI token use cases.

What Is HAI Token?

HAI is a native and utility token that accesses the Hacken.AI ecosystem consisting of cybersecurity products, services, and the Membership Program. Being an engine for ecosystem operations and development, the token is underlined by deflation and liquidity-growth mechanisms.

Token symbol: HAI

Token type:

VIP180 0xacc280010b2ee0efc770bce34774376656d8ce14

BEP-20 0xaa9e582e5751d703f85912903bacaddfed26484c

ERC-20 0x05Fb86775Fd5c16290f1E838F5caaa7342bD9a63

HAI use cases: Product utility, Work-2-Earn, governance.

Total supply: 1,000,000,000 HAI

Circulating supply (March 29): 646,840,772 HAI

The latest update on HAI has led to the transformation of the token product-utility, Work-2-Earn, and governance nature, enabling the ecosystem products to operate and be accessible for holders. Tokenomics accommodates the interests of Web3 players’ variety who pursue the goal of building Web3 Trust and increasing transparency, alongside implementing mechanisms for liquidity growth and deflation. Products are the core of the Hacken ecosystem as it creates HAI utilities, solves users’ goals, and unites the company with its community. Every product has its own HAI utility and use case that drives demand.

HAI Token Use Cases

Product utility

Trust Army (a platform that provides users with Web3 data collection tasks and education): HAI is used for staking, rewards boosting, and receiving accesses inside the platform. Staking provides users with Trust Fuel, a unit that allows completing more reports within the 4 levels in Hacken Membership Program, and for locking of tokens to submit Requests-for-Proposal.

hDAO (Hacken Decentralized Autonomous Organization): HAI is used for staking to obtain Voting Power with 1–3% APYs, powering decision-making.

ETD (a cybersecurity token that bakes the time of the Hacken Smart Contract Audit Team): the HAI use case that enables auditing services purchase with HAI token and organic market demand and liquidity growth.

HackenProof (the Hacken bug bounty platform): the token use case motivates ethical hackers to join the Membership Program, purchase HAI Coupons, and access extra bug bounty rewards in USDT.

Hacken Extractor (an on-chain smart contract security monitoring system): the token use case allows business parties to benefit from HAI-based subscriptions or Hacken Membership and pay 20–30% less.

hAI (ex. HackenAI): the mobile key to the HAI ecosystem management that grants Membership for staking to unlock a range of benefits and privileges.

Governance

HAI is a governance token in hDAO. The use case of HAI accesses the voting process and participation in HackenDAO for wide-ranged Web3 users.

Work-2-Earn

HAI is a Work-2-Earn token in Trust Army. The use case enables the Trust Army functions for wide-ranged Web3 users, where HAI figures as the payment method for Trust Army users for submitted reports with collected data on Web3 projects.

The Tokenomics Paper provides HAI distribution for Q1 2023

Being evolving to hDAO, we’ve announced the token distribution to the Treasury for 2023

More details in our Tokenomics Paper.

Now, the Hacken.AI team follows the Token Roadmap on schedule and works on products set out in Q1/Q2 2023.

To learn more and discuss the Tokenomics Paper, join Hacken Discord.

The Hacken goal is to create a strong and trustworthy ecosystem to pave the way for the future of Web3. In 2022, we decided to change the HAI structure and community to its roots by creating a fully decentralized organization that manages HAI. Established in 2017, the Hacken community is evolving and scaling into hDAO.

In the Web3 industry, transparency is the key. Without it, the space will continue to be plagued by inferior projects with weak concepts, fraudulent activities, poor tokenomics, and scams that harm investors and the community. While data is critical to identifying bad actors, it’s so only through a motivated and fair community that this open, up-to-date, well-structured, and easy-to-use data can be collected and processed. That is why we released the new HAI Tokenomics, aiming to build Verifiable Trust in Web3. with the support of public goods and community-driven initiatives.

The new Hacken Tokenomics represents a crucial step forward for Hacken and the industry as it pioneers a new standard for its incentivization. The Tokenomics structure is designed to connect Hacken products, and encourage holders to participate in the ecosystem. With its transparent, fair, and deflationary structure, the new Tokenomics attracts a wide range of individuals committed to contributing to the industry.

Starting in 2023, HAI holders will be contributing to the Web3 industry, fortifying security, and developing public goods initiatives.

The new Tokenomics for HAI is set to revolutionize the HAI token and transform it into a Work-2-Earn, governance, and product-utility token. The new tokenomics structure connects all existing products with new ones, sharing a common idea, functions, and token mechanisms and pursuing the following goals:

• Convert the HAI token into an incentivized asset that brings value to the industry
• Implement a DAO governance model
• Connect B2B services success with HAI token
• Structure existing and future products with one key idea and build bridges with common mechanics for them
• Enhance current HAI token utilities such as Membership, special education programs, and services access;
• Create clear and high-powered deflationary mechanisms.

HAI Ecosystem Products and Utilities

The main HAI ecosystem products include ETD, HackenProof, Extractor, Trust Army, hDAO, and hAI as the core of the Hacken ecosystem, creating HAI utility, solving user goals, and uniting the company with its community.

ETD

The first cybersecurity stablecoin that bakes time for auditors’ teamwork — ETD (Engineering Team Day), connecting the Hacken business services with the HAI token.

Utility: the innovative offer allows B2B clients to buy 1 workday from a Hacken Auditor team of 4 people for 1 ETD at a fixed HAI/USDT price and merges Hacken business growth success with 3 pillars of successful Tokenomics: the organic market buying process, permanent liquidity growth, and deflationary mechanisms.

Hacken Extractor

hDAO

hDAO is the decentralized autonomous organization of the Hacken ecosystem, which plays a pivotal role in the whole Hacken ecosystem, as it is the main driver for future ecosystem and HAI token development. All HAI holders can offer incentives, submit RFPs, and vote on Proposals with Voting Power, ensuring a democratic decision-making process.

Hacken invites all Web3 enthusiasts to become a part of hDAO to join the development of our cybersecurity initiatives that will be valuable and on-demanded for each industry’s player.

Utility: an essential utility for hDAO that provides Voting Power (VP) to participate in hDAO governance with a 3% APY or delegate their VP to other users, known as Delegates, with a 1% APY. Another novelty lies in HAI locking for Requests for Proposals (RFPs) creation.

hDAO starts completely managing the HAI Treasury, making all decisions and actions with HAI tokens transparent and preventing any hidden activities that may lead to token liquidity and price decrease.

hAI

hAI is a single mobile key to the whole HAI ecosystem, providing access utility products: Trust Army, hDAO, HackenProof, and Extractor.

They are attached to the owner’s wallet (soul) only and reflect the user’s reputation and engagement with Hacken products. SBTs can be used for access control, membership management, and rewarding members for their contributions to the Trust Army and hDAO communities.

HAI Technical Infrastructure

The HAI ecosystem has undergone significant updates in its Tokenomics, which have impacted the technical infrastructure of the ecosystem, particularly its on-chain components.

Based on new Tokenomics and products technical requirements, in 2023, Hacken will update its smart-contracts structure. Because of the major issues the new HAI ecosystem architecture meets, the HAI ecosystem products will be deployed to a new chain — Ethereum L2 (the one that will be announced in Q2 2023). hDAO, Trust Army, ETD, hAI, and Membership will work on Ethereum L2.

HAI Distribution

Based on a new stage of HAI ecosystem development and visions of transparency and trust — Hacken shares detailed distribution of HAI tokens with its community, investors, and other parties.

HAI Roadmap

As a part of core improvements, the Tokenomics Paper contains the updated HAI token Roadmap for 2023 and Q1 2024.

This announcement contains key innovations in terms of the new HAI Tokenomics release. To get acquainted with all Tokenomics novelties, read the HAI Tokenomics Paper by following the link and discover the updated Hacken.AI website.

The HAI Product Ecosystem continues moving in the product-utility direction. As part of important updates, Hacken has launched the public beta of a new product — Hacken Extractor.

How Hacken Extractor Works

Hacken Extractor is an on-chain smart contract monitoring system. The software will track smart contracts’ status and activity in real time by monitoring code execution, transactions, interactions with blocked addresses, contract upgrades, and ownership. When a vulnerability is detected, the software will notify a client of a threat.

You can learn more about Extractor and its roadmap here.

Get Access with HAI

The new solution is beneficial for the security of Web3 projects after the smart contracts are deployed to the blockchain. As was announced in 2022, subsequent Hacken products will empower the HAI product utility, alongside providing simplified access to them.

The full release of Hacken Extractor, planned for Q2 2023, will be available for B2B clients with several subscription plans based on HAI and USDT payment systems.

With the HAI-based subscriptions, all clients will use Hacken Extractor and pay 20% less.

The number of potential Extractor users covers 1,200+ Hacken partners and clients, part of which has already entered the public beta. After the full launch, hundreds of companies will be experiencing Extractor by paying with HAI.

100% of HAI received as payments for the subscription will be burned.

The term will be valid from the first day of subscription to the start of hDAO voting and can be reconsidered through the voting process.

More Benefits for Partner-Level Members

Given the Hacken membership updates, we shall endeavor to make Hacken B2B partners and clients become HAI Partner-Level members, allowing them to enjoy greater advantages while using Hacken user products. Partner-Level members will have an extra 10% reduction on the Hacken Extractor subscription whether they pay in HAI or USDT.

Hacken Extractor is the next leap in the HAI token utility enhancements string, announced in the Hacken.AI updated roadmap.
