iExec RLC

RLC and iExec

RLC is the utility token of iExec, a decentralized computing network. iExec describes the token as a way to access computing resources, secure off-chain computation and monetize digital assets such as data, code and AI models. The network separates the token’s economic role from the underlying computing marketplace, where providers make resources available and users request workloads.

Computing marketplace

iExec is designed to connect buyers and providers of computing resources. Applications can use the network to access distributed computing rather than relying on one centralized provider. RLC therefore functions as an economic unit for network services. Its utility is tied to actual access and coordination of decentralized computing resources rather than being described only as a governance asset.

RLC tokenomics

iExec’s May 2025 tokenomics update states that RLC has a fixed supply of approximately 86 million tokens, with no unlocks and no inflation. The same update described new mechanisms such as vouchers and incentive programs. Because the supply is described as fixed, current market data should be read separately from historical tokenomics explanations.

New token mechanisms

iExec’s 2025 tokenomics work introduced new ways to use and earn RLC, including simplified token usage, circular revenue mechanisms and staking. These changes were presented as an expansion of RLC utility across the network. Current pages should distinguish these mechanisms from older descriptions that may only mention RLC as a payment token for computing services.

RLC risks

RLC is exposed to the technical and economic risks of decentralized computing, including demand for compute resources, provider reliability, software security and network design changes. A fixed token supply does not remove market or technology risk. Users should also distinguish iExec’s token utility from the performance of any individual application or computing workload built on the network.

This page separates project documentation from live FMchart market fields. Historical tokenomics, staking rules and roadmap statements are dated where relevant, while live figures are intended to refresh independently when market data is available. Readers should use current project documentation for changes after the review date.

For FMchart readers, RLC’s fixed-supply description should be read as a tokenomics statement, not as a claim about price or market value. iExec’s May 2025 article states that the token has a fixed supply of approximately 86 million, with no unlocks and no inflation. Live market fields can still change because price and market capitalization are market-derived measures. iExec’s computing services can also evolve, so a description of current utility should be checked against the project’s latest documentation. FMchart’s composite historical series is independent of iExec’s own technical timeline and may begin after the project’s original launch. The monthly and annual tables therefore summarize the available market record rather than every historical trading venue. Keeping these data layers separate makes the page useful for both beginners learning what RLC does and readers checking current market information.
