The PhygiLink™ project is moving along much faster now that we have access to new AI platforms such as Lovable, Replit, ChatGPT pro, Claude, Gemini Deep Research, and Photoshop AI.
The MVP (Minimal Viable Product) for the marketplace, now called the PhygiVault™, is taking shape as a functioning marketplace.
We have made new pivots to make things work:
1. The marketplace will sell real items in USDC, which will have a built-in digital wallet. This makes the pricing easier for people who have the collectibles, but are not crypto-savvy. This also makes it easier to launch since the USDC stablecoin has massive support across the board now.
2. We're officially sunsetting the 10 billion PHYGT tokens originally minted on Polygon. Instead, we're shifting to the upcoming $PHYG, which will be minted on the Hedera Blockchain — bringing faster, greener, and more scalable infrastructure to the PhygiLink ecosystem.
The tokenomics for $PHYG are now locked in. This utility token will power everything behind PhygiLink — where physical collectibles meet verified digital ownership.
🪙 What is $PHYG for?
• Unlock upgraded NFT tiers and special features
• Pay minting fees to Phygitize your collectibles (NFC + NFT)
• Earn $PHYG through rewards, scans, and collector challenges
• Use it to access drops, perks, or limited release upgrades
💰 Marketplace purchases will be done in USDC for simplicity, but $PHYG will power the collector utility and reward loop across the platform.
⏳ The token will be minted soon with a 90-day lock period before presale tokens are released — giving us time to launch, build, and create serious traction.
