Network service payments are the fees or tokens paid by users to access and utilize services provided by a decentralized network, such as data storage, computation, or bandwidth. These payments compensate the network participants who supply the resources necessary for the service operation. They are typically denominated in the network’s native cryptocurrency and serve as an economic incentive for providers to maintain and expand their contributions.
