Newton Protocol (NEWT) is a blockchain infrastructure project designed to enable verifiable on-chain automation. It combines Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) with Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) so users can safely delegate blockchain tasks to automated agents without giving up control. The protocol is supported by the Magic Newton Foundation and developed with contributions from Magic Labs.
What is the NEWT token?
NEWT is the native utility and governance token of the Newton Protocol ecosystem. It powers the network by serving several key functions:
Staking: Token holders can stake NEWT to help secure the network and earn rewards.
Transaction fees: NEWT is used to pay protocol fees for automated on-chain actions.
Model and agent registry: Developers use NEWT to register AI models and automation agents on the protocol.
Governance: Staked NEWT allows holders to vote on protocol upgrades and ecosystem decisions.
