# Value Semantics

#### 1. Service Usage (Agent Call Credit)

Every DAT token includes a value field representing service credit. It can be used to:

* Call Alith Agents
* Pay for dataset/model usage
* Be consumed per use, recharged, or reused

**Example:**

A DAT with CLASS = 0x03 and value = 1000 allows 1000 calls to a model or equivalent compute.

Extensions:

* Value can be recharged
* Value is deducted upon use and recorded on-chain for traceability

#### 2. Revenue Share (Fractional Ownership)

In dataset or model-based DATs, value also indicates fractional ownership, allowing holders to earn revenue share:

* If a model is used by other agents, income is split proportionally
* If a dataset is used for training, contributors earn a share
* Rewards are automatically settled to token holders — no manual claim needed

**Example:**

* Model DAT #1234 has 10,000 total shares
* You hold a token with value = 500
* If the model earns 10,000 DAT in a month, you receive:\
  500 / 10,000 × 10,000 = 500 DAT
