Three Institutional Service Tiers and EADI Token Use Cases

Institutional Research serves smaller funds, family offices, and professional research teams. It supports batch instrument analysis, portfolio risk research, team accounts, and controlled APIs. Institutional eligibility, commercial service agreements, and EADI Token staking jointly determine additional research access and flexible computing tiers.

Institutional research requires more than the ability to submit requests: confidentiality, team permissions, research records, and reproducible results are essential. Staking may confer long-term participation benefits but does not replace institutional identity verification or a service contract.

Institutional Enterprise is designed for asset managers requiring customized models, segregated workspaces, risk approvals, and decision audits. Institutions receive defined baseline resource commitments under contract, while qualifying EADI Token stakes provide additional flexible computing entitlements and long-term participation weight.

An institution's critical risk monitoring, dedicated computing environment, and data segregation are not subject to competition from outside token holders for scheduling priority. Token governance cannot alter an institution's investment policy or its responsibility for client assets.

Institutional Infrastructure serves large organizations that require deep API integration, independent deployment, dedicated research workflows, and advanced computing environments. At this tier, EADI Token primarily connects ecosystem research, incremental computing resources, and designated governance participation. Core infrastructure capabilities continue to be governed by professional contracts, technical integration, and service-level agreements.

Long-term staking can demonstrate an institution's sustained participation in the ecosystem, but it cannot give any institution unrestricted control over shared computing capacity. The system must balance incentives for long-term participation with contractual commitments and fairness across users.
