Staking just opened.
20 CREDIT/hour ($20 of inference) split across every $LUMO staker, pro-rata.
Fewer stakers = bigger share. Early is the whole game.
No lock. Unstake anytime.

hey Sam, we built Lumo: the inference layer on Arc.
→ one API key, 464 models
→ drop-in for OpenAI, Anthropic & OpenRouter clients, just swap the base URL
→ credits bought in USDC from an on-chain order book, up to 20% off
→ supply comes from $LUMO stakers: stake, earn CREDIT, sell it into the book
→ zero data retention, prompts never stored
$1k in credits already live in the book. staking is open.
next up: an agent launchpad where tokens pay for their own inference.
$1,000 in LLM credits just hit the Lumo book.
→ $500 at 20% off
→ $300 at 10% off
→ $200 at 0% off
1 CREDIT = $1 of inference. One API key, every model, paid in USDC on Arc.
Cheapest levels fill first.
Here's how it works.
Lumo is the inference exchange on @arc, from USDC to API key to every frontier model.
It helps builders cut their AI bill without subscriptions or lock-in.
→ Connect your wallet
→ Buy discounted credits in USDC
→ Get one sk-lumo key
→ Point your OpenAI or Anthropic client at Lumo
Watch your first request land with Lumo.
Every aggregator needs venues to route to.
Today we're adding one on @arc.
Introducing Lumo: tokenized inference credits, settled in USDC.
> 1 CREDIT = $1 of inference
> 460+ models, one API key
> sellers list credits on an onchain order book
> buyers fill the deepest discount first, up to 30% off
The inference credits wave just reached Arc.

Introducing $LUMO.
$LUMO is the staking token behind Lumo, the inference credit market on @arc, from staking to credits to settlement.
Stake it, and the protocol's hourly inference capacity flows to you as CREDIT.
→ Stake $LUMO
→ Earn CREDIT every hour
→ Burn it into API balance for 460+ models
→ Or sell it on the order book for USDC

1B fixed supply, no more ever minted
Stake for inference with Lumo.

We'll see a new primitive come out of this inference credits wave
"Tokenized Inference Credits Aggregators"
Think DEX Aggregators but instead of finding the best DEX that can serve the best price for a swap,
It finds the cheapest inference credits on the most reliable platform for the desirable AI models
Aggregate Venice DIEM's discounted inferences, Orbio's CREDIT, Bittensor subnets' Gamma token credits and offer the best inference to users
> Inference prices get cut by 50-99%
> General AI devs organically use it as it's cheap/private
> Onchain inference gets PMF outside of CT
Only Surplus is doing this at a 140B+ tokens/day scale so far
The gap remains for anyone to capture
