Application Developers: Platform Activities and Benefits

Role: Produce, innovative mobile applications that connect users to the Telcoin Platform and the blockchain goods and services it generates.
Activities
- Develop Telcoin Mobile Applications: Develop mobile applications that connect users to the Telcoin Platform and its services, including the ability to securely self-custody, transfer, exchange their digital assets using the Telcoin Platform as infrastructure. In order to participate in the role and harvest TEL issuance, Applications must comply with Application Infrastructure standards
- Stake TEL: Deposit TEL in Telcoin Application Network (TAN) staking contracts from their governance-approved wallet address, which determines their TEL issuance earning power and political power in governance processes.

Transaction Fees: Income from transaction fees paid by their mobile customers.

Frequency: Each time users transact through Telcoin products and pay fees.
Fee Percentage: Developers determine their own fee schedules.
Basis for Fee Income: Transaction fee minus referral fee earned by Staker.
- Non-referred users: If the user has not been referred by a Staker, the Developer earns the entire transaction fee.
- Referred users: If the user has been referred by a Staker, the Developer earns the base transaction they charge minus the referral fee rate.

The private technologies Developers use to interact with the system.

TEL Consumption Use: Developers exchange TEL for other assets using TELx and use TEL to pay gas fees on Telcoin Network in order to have their and their user base’s transactions included in blocks and secured to the blockchain
TEL Production and Harvesting use: Developers must stake TEL to participate, the quantity of TEL an individual developer has staked determines their earning power, and Developers earn TEL fees and harvest TEL issuance.
TEL Earning Power: The quantity of TEL staked by a Developer determines the quantity of TEL that is available for them to harvest from TAN.
- Maximum weekly TEL issuance: Developers may mine their accrued weekly TEL issuance from TAN if their: Total staked TEL > (TEL issuance income/ lifetime + TEL issuance income/ current week)
TEL Revenue
- TEL Fees: Developers earn TEL fees when their customers transact and pay fees using TEL.
- TEL Issuance: Developers harvest TEL issuance from TAN staking contracts.
TEL Governance Use
- Political Power: Developers’ power within their Miner Group in Telcoin Platform governance is based on their pro-rata share of TEL staked on TAN by all Developers. This influences their proposal and voting power in Council Member selection processes and constitutional-choice decisions that affect that governance system rules.

Authorized wallet: Developers stake TEL, harvest TEL issuance and vote in governance from a wallet address that has been authorized by the Compliance Council.

Application Infrastructure: Mobile application systems that are required to be put into place and maintained by Developers for users to access the Platform and its services. Each developer’s Mobile Application must meet certain standards, set, enforced, and refined by the TAN Council, in order for them to continue harvesting TEL from TAN.Application Requirements
- Telcoin Mobile Application: iOS or Android mobile applications built on the Telcoin Platform including:
  - An Interface Connected to the Telcoin Platform: An intuitive interface connecting users to TELx and Telcoin Network.
  - Banking Infrastructure: Including at least one-fiat on and off-ramp for stablecoins.
  - Staker Capabilities: Staker referral code, harvesting, and governance functionality in place for users to participate as stakers.
  - Secure-Self Custody Implementation: A secure, multi-signature or multi-party computation wallet implementation for users.
  - Trade Router API: Connecting the app to TELx markets for exchange.
  - KYC/AML systems: Verifying the identity of users to ensure 1 user 1 account and compliance with local laws

Developers interact with and depend on the following Telcoin Platform components to produce and consume platform services and earn benefits.

Component, Function | Description
Storage Facilities

The facilities that store TEL inventories within the system prior to allocation, distribution, and extraction. | TAN Council Gnosis Safe: The primary stock of TAN issuance which receives, stores, and generates a flow of TEL issuance to be harvested by Developers and Stakers.

TAN Distribution Safe: Multi-signature wallet used to store the inventory of TEL units and distribute issuance to staking contracts to be harvested by Applications, Miners, Users during the first 13 weeks.
Distribution Facilities

Infrastructure involved in the distribution of TEL issuance from storage facilities to other facilities for later use and extraction facilities to be harvested by Miners. | TAN Council Telcoin-Distributor: Gnosis Safe module allowing the TAN Council to execute transactions proposed by a single council member without requiring a snapshot vote. This is useful for regular maintenance tasks, like topping up the TAN Staking Contract.

TAN Issuance Calculation Script: Calculates issuance allocation using an off-chain database and script.
Extraction Facilities

Infrastructure involved in the calculation and extraction of TEL units from the system by miners. | Staking Contracts: TEL staking contracts used by Stakers and Developers to stake TEL, allocate, and extract TEL issuance and fees.

The underlying blockchain systems that TAN depends on to function.
