# peaq | Powering DePIN and the Machine Economy

peaq is the layer-1 blockchain powering the Machine Economy: real-world Web3 apps (DePINs), robots, and the millions of machines and devices that run on them. peaqOS gives every machine wallets, identity, and a presence on every supported chain.

## Economics
- [Economics](https://www.peaq.xyz/economics): An economy to set machines free: machines bond $PEAQ to activate, coordinate for small dollar-priced fees, and Trust Validators verify the work.
- [Activation](https://www.peaq.xyz/economics/activation): Machines activate at a yearly dollar price, on any chain, that becomes a $PEAQ bond on their identity; three tiers, a 50% burn when not renewed.
- [Flow & fees](https://www.peaq.xyz/economics/flow-and-fees): Coordination fees paid in any currency, the 30/30/20/20 PEAQ Flow, the Machine Pool credits, and how Trust Validators earn.
- [Supply](https://www.peaq.xyz/economics/supply): Newly minted $PEAQ from 3.5% to a 1% floor, bonding that locks supply, non-renewals that burn half the bond.
- [Tokenomics](https://www.peaq.xyz/economics/tokenomics): Genesis allocation, continuous vesting, the five public treasury wallets, and where to check each mechanism onchain.
- [Live data](https://www.peaq.xyz/economics/live-data): Every activation, bond, and burn on peaq, block by block, on the Machine Explorer.
