# Glossary

> Crypto, GamerHash-specific, and infrastructure terms referenced throughout this documentation.

## Tokens and units

**GHX (GamerCoin)** — Native utility token of the GamerHash ecosystem. Issued on Ethereum and bridged to BNB Chain and Solana.

**GUSD** — In-app USD-denominated unit. GPU-sharing earnings in the GamerHash AI App are paid in GUSD; users can convert it to GHX in one click whenever they choose.

**GHXP (GamerHash Experience Points)** — Off-chain engagement points earned by running the GamerHash AI App or completing in-app actions. GHXP turns into GHX through monthly seasons: you commit up to 80% of your saved GHXP to a shared pool, committed points are burned, and you receive a share of the season's GHX proportional to what you committed. GHXP doesn't change what an AI job pays yet — factoring it into earnings is planned soon. See [Tokenomics overview](/tokenomics/overview#utility).

**Holder tier** — Account level in the GamerHash AI App, set by how much GHX you hold. A higher level makes GHXP accrue faster, up to a cap.

## Token economics

**TGE (Token Generation Event)** — The moment a token is initially created on-chain and becomes available. GHX TGE: 31 December 2020.

**Vesting** — Time-locked release of allocated tokens, typically over months or years, to align long-term incentives.

**Token burn** — Permanent removal of tokens from circulating supply, usually by sending them to an unrecoverable address (eater address). Seven rounds between December 2021 and June 2022 removed 8.1% of GHX supply — see [Distribution](/tokenomics/distribution).

**Eater address** — A wallet address from which tokens cannot be sent or withdrawn, used for verifiable burns.

**Circulating supply** — Tokens currently available on the open market (excludes locked, burned, and unvested allocations).

## Earning mechanisms

**Staking** — Locking tokens for a defined period to earn yield. See [Staking](/tokenomics/staking).

**APR (Annual Percentage Rate)** — Annualized return rate, not compounded. Used for staking rewards.

**APY (Annual Percentage Yield)** — Annualized return rate, compounded. Generally higher than APR for the same nominal rate.

**Liquidity Mining** — Earning token rewards by providing liquidity to a DEX pool. See [Liquidity Mining](/tokenomics/liquidity-mining).

**Liquidity Pool (LP)** — A pool of two paired tokens (e.g. GHX/BNB) that traders swap against on a DEX.

**LP token** — Receipt token issued when you deposit into a liquidity pool. Represents your share of the pool.

**Impermanent loss** — Value lost (relative to simply holding) when the prices of two pooled assets diverge after deposit.

## Networks and infrastructure

**ERC-20** — Standard token interface on Ethereum. The GHX token's Ethereum deployment.

**BEP-20** — BNB Chain token standard, equivalent to ERC-20 on a different chain.

**SPL** — Solana Program Library token standard. Solana's equivalent of ERC-20.

**Bridge** — Mechanism for moving a token between blockchains. GHX uses [cBridge](https://cbridge.celer.network/) for Ethereum ↔ BNB Chain, and [deBridge](https://app.debridge.finance/deport?r=31939\&inputChain=1\&outputChain=7565164\&inputCurrency=0x728f30fa2f100742c7949d1961804fa8e0b1387d\&outputCurrency=) for Ethereum ↔ Solana. See [Contracts & Bridging](/tokenomics/contracts#bridging).

**n8n** — Open-source workflow-automation platform. The GamerHash GPU network ships as an official n8n node, enabling no-code orchestration of AI workloads.

**DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network)** — Category of protocols that incentivize participants to provide real-world infrastructure (compute, storage, bandwidth, etc.) via crypto rewards. The GamerHash GPU network is a DePIN; GHX is tagged as DePIN on CoinGecko.

## Trading

**CEX (Centralized Exchange)** — A traditional, custodial trading platform (e.g. KuCoin, Bithumb, MEXC, Gate).

**DEX (Decentralized Exchange)** — A non-custodial, on-chain trading venue (e.g. Uniswap, PancakeSwap, Raydium).

**AMM (Automated Market Maker)** — Algorithmic pricing model used by most DEXes; trades execute against a liquidity pool rather than an order book.

**Slippage** — Difference between expected and executed swap price, caused by trade size relative to pool depth.

## Listing categories

**GameFi** — Crypto category combining gaming and finance (token-based games, in-game economies).

**AI Applications** — Tag for tokens powering AI-related infrastructure or services.

## Compliance

**AML (Anti–Money Laundering)** — Regulatory framework requiring monitoring and reporting of suspicious financial activity.

**CFT (Counter-Financing of Terrorism)** — Regulations targeting the use of financial systems for terrorism financing.

**PMLFTR** — Malta's Prevention of Money Laundering and Funding of Terrorism Regulations. Referenced in [AML / CFT](/legal/aml-cft).

**MFSA (Malta Financial Services Authority)** — Maltese regulator with which the GHX whitepaper is registered.
