Liquid Machines

Estimate the investor ROI of co-owning a tokenized, revenue-generating machine on peaq — honestly, with risk-adjusted ranges, not marketing numbers.

🆕 peaqOS V1 launched May 2026. Liquid Machines (Initial Machine Offerings) are still in V1 testing and not yet open to the general public. This is an early-previewcalculator — a planning tool, not a live investment product. You can't buy in from here yet.Learn more about DualMint and Machine RWAs

What are Liquid Machines?

peaqOS V1 turns physical machines and robots into on-chain financial assets across three layers. Activate gives a machine a decentralized identity (peaqID), an omnichain wallet, and a Machine NFT. Qualify assigns a Machine Credit Rating (MCR)— a Moody's-style grade from AAA to NR based on the machine's revenue, uptime and a trust multiplier that climbs as reporting moves from self-reported to on-chain-verified to hardware-signed.

Liquid Machines is the tokenization layer: a Machine NFT is placed in a vault and fractionalized via ERC-3643, the permissioned standard for regulated real-world assets. That lets a community co-own the machine and receive its revenue on-chain — financed through Initial Machine Offerings (IMOs). Because transfers are restricted to KYC-verified participants, these are regulated instruments, not open meme tokens.

Crucially, peaq does notpublish the revenue split between holders and operators, protocol fees, lock-ups, or the exact MCR formula. So this calculator does not pretend to derive a machine's economics. Instead it models yourreturn from a yield assumption you choose, then discounts it by the machine's credit rating — and shows you, plainly, what isn't modeled.

Real reference · DualMint robo-farm

The world's first tokenized robo-farm — a semi-autonomous vertical farm in Hong Kong built by KanayaAI, tokenized by DualMint — is the one concrete case. It has ~200 co-owners and a co-founder cited a yield of "approximately 20% APY". Treat that as a single, projected data point (go-live Q4 2025), not a guarantee or a network average. DualMint has activated ~205 machines across operators in total.

Amount you'd put into a tokenized machine. No hardware to buy — you co-own the asset.

2. Expected yield scenario

Pick an assumption. DualMint's robo-farm references ~20% — but that's a single, projected case, not a guarantee or an average.

3. Machine Credit Rating (MCR)

peaqOS rates each machine AAA→NR by revenue, uptime and trust. We apply it as a trust discount on the advertised yield (DePINly heuristic — not a peaq formula).

4. Hold period

5. Token resale assumption

What you assume the token is worth at exit, as % of what you paid. Secondary liquidity is unproven and KYC-gated — there may be few buyers.

What could go wrong (not modeled)

Machine downtime, breakdown or revenue below projection.
No secondary buyers — KYC-gated, unproven liquidity (resale could be near 0).
Operator counterparty risk; revenue-split & fees unpublished.
Regulatory change (VARA Dubai is one jurisdiction); ERC-3643 transfer restrictions.
Hardware obsolescence over a multi-year hold.

Sources (verified 2026-05-21): meet peaqOS, Machine RWA Framework, tokenized robo-farm. The yield scenarios, MCR trust-discount and ranges are DePINly heuristics for planning — not peaq formulas. Liquid Machines investing is experimental and high-risk; this is not financial advice.
