The global large-scale model industry is moving towards a "Token Economy".

With the explosion of OpenClaw, the consumption of Tokens is experiencing exponential growth, and this technical term is quickly breaking through barriers to become an industry buzzword. On March 16th, Alibaba announced the establishment of the Alibaba Token Hub business group, with the core goal of "creating Tokens, transmitting Tokens, and applying Tokens." Currently, large models are transitioning from "chat AI" to AI intelligent agents capable of autonomously performing complex tasks, leading to a clear exponential growth trend in Token consumption. Third-party research data shows that by 2024, the overall daily Token consumption in China will be around 100 billion, a significant increase from the 180 trillion in February of this year. Therefore, many industry professionals believe that the global large model industry is moving towards a "Token economy," where the value of large models is no longer solely based on cutting-edge reasoning capabilities but also includes "Token-based" business and economic indicators.
