    Users can help securing the aleph.im network by holding tokens and _staking_ them on 
    [Core Channel Nodes](../nodes/core/index.md) they consider trustworthy. The aleph.im network
    interacts with blockchains to achieve this mechanism.
+6. **PAYG support**:
+   Users can pay for network resources in real-time by streaming tokens for the duration of their usage. When they open
+   a token stream, payments flow continuously as long as they use the resource. Once they close the stream, payments
+   stop, and the resource becomes inaccessible. This approach ensures users only pay for what they actively use,
+   offering a flexible and efficient payment method.
