BlockBeats News, March 24th. According to a reporter from People’s Daily News, the daily token invocation amount in China reached 100 billion in early 2024, soared to 100 trillion by the end of 2025, and surpassed 140 trillion in March this year, a growth of over a thousand times in two years.
A token is the smallest unit of information for processing in large models, with the characteristics of measurability, pricing, and tradability in the intelligent era. Currently, a new value system revolving around token invocation, distribution, and settlement is rapidly evolving, becoming a key path for the commercialization of the artificial intelligence industry. The significant growth in the daily token invocation amount in China also indicates that as the market-oriented allocation reform of data elements deepens, a supply system of high-quality data for artificial intelligence is taking shape, and the virtuous cycle of “data supply-value release” is beginning to emerge.
