ZIP-1: User-Personalized AI Models & ZOO Tokenomics

Abstract

This proposal defines Zoo's integration with Hamiltonian Large Language Models (HLLMs) per-user AI models and establishes the ZOO token economics. Instead of domain-specific models, every Zoo user gets a personalized AI that learns from their DeFi strategies, gaming behavior, and NFT preferences. The ZOO token powers this AI-enhanced ecosystem through training rewards, compute payments, and governance.

Motivation

The Zoo ecosystem requires personalized AI that learns from each user:

Personal DeFi Assistant: Learns YOUR trading strategies and risk tolerance
Custom NFT Creator: Adapts to YOUR aesthetic preferences
Gaming Companion: Learns YOUR playstyle and helps you improve
Portfolio Manager: Understands YOUR investment goals
True Ownership: YOU own your AI model as an NFT asset

Generic or domain-specific models fail because every user is unique. Per-user models create value through personalization that users own.

Specification

Model Architecture

Every Zoo user gets a personalized fork of Hanzo's base model:

class ZooUserModel:
    base_model = "HLLM-32B"  # Hamiltonian Large Language Model
    
    def __init__(self, user_address):
        # Every user gets unique model
        self.model_id = fork_model(base_model, user_address)
        self.owner = user_address
        self.specializations = []
        self.training_count = 0
        
    def learn_from_interaction(self, interaction):
        # Real-time learning from user actions
        gradient = compute_gradient(interaction)
        self.apply_update(gradient)
        self.training_count += 1
        
        # Record on immutable ledger
        ledger.record(self.model_id, interaction)

        // Rewards scale with model maturity
        uint256 modelAge = getUserModelAge(user);
        reward = reward * sqrt(modelAge) / 100;
        
        mint(user, reward);
        
        // Burn mechanism
        burn(reward / 10); // 10% burn

        for (uint i = 0; i < players.length; i++) {
            uint256 reward = totalPool * scores[i] / totalScore;
            
            // AI bonus for smart plays
            if (hasAIModel(players[i])) {
                reward = reward * 120 / 100; // 20% bonus
            }
            
            mint(players[i], reward);

    struct Lock {
        uint256 amount;
        uint256 end;
    }
    
    function lock(uint256 amount, uint256 duration) external {
        require(duration >= 1 weeks && duration <= 4 years);
        
        locks[msg.sender] = Lock({
            amount: amount,
            end: block.timestamp + duration
        });
        
        // Voting power = amount * time
        uint256 votingPower = amount * duration / 4 years;
        updateVotingPower(msg.sender, votingPower);
    }
}

Emission Schedule

def calculate_emission(month):
    # Monthly emissions with decay
    if month <= 12:
        return 100_000_000  # 100M ZOO/month Year 1
    elif month <= 24:
        return 75_000_000   # 75M ZOO/month Year 2
    elif month <= 48:
        return 50_000_000   # 50M ZOO/month Year 3-4
    else:
        return 25_000_000   # 25M ZOO/month Year 5+

Burn Mechanisms

Transaction Fees: 20% of fees burned
NFT Minting: 50% of mint fees burned
AI Training: 10% of rewards burned
Gaming: Losing stakes burned
Governance: Failed proposals burn deposit
