# Token Utility

* **Payment for inference:** Users can use $OSMI to pay for unlimited inference from OSMI
* **Payment for GPU tasks:** Users can use $OSMI as a payment to GPU node owners for using their GPUs for various purposes (e.g. OSMI API credits for running specific AI applications).
* **Token for AI-model transactions:** Users will be able to use $OSMI to access additional features and models powered by OSMI's network in the future.
* **Staking and locking:** Users can stake their $OSMI to earn rewards and lock their assets in protocol governance – providing a foundation for network security and stability.
