economics.txt - where every percent goes

The whole system, in percentages.

No hand-waving. This is what the contracts do with every unit and every trade, written out. Every number here is fixed in code before launch and cannot be changed afterwards.

There are two moments where value moves: once when a startup is minted, and then forever after, every time one is traded. This page covers both.

supply.dat - what exists

5,555 startups exist. That is the whole collection and no more can be made. Each startup is backed by exactly one token, so the token and the startup are the same asset in two forms. Buy a whole token and a startup boots to you. Sell part of one and it folds back.

The Queue, first 555 wallets
$1
10%
Everyone else, The Queue first, then the public
$5
80%
Reserved, never offered for sale
n/a
10%

The $1 price is the entire reason The Queue exists. It is one per wallet, first come, and it is only for wallets that signed the guestbook before the list was frozen. Every other unit is $5, 10 per transaction and 25 per wallet, open to The Queue first, then to the public. Once the 555 are gone, a Queue wallet pays $5 like anyone else.

The tier price is the whole cost. There is no mint fee, no markup on the oracle rate, and no charge for the reveal. You pay the price and the network gas, and nothing else.

Of what the mint takes in, a fixed 30% goes straight back into the pool as liquidity, so there is depth to trade against on day one. The other 70% pays for building the thing: audits, infrastructure, the art, legal and operations. The split is written into the mint contract, not decided afterwards.

reserve.txt - the 555 reserved units

555 of the 5,555 units are reserved and are not for sale. They are ids 1 to 555, and they are revealed in the final batch, after every public batch, so the reserve cannot see its own draw early.

Most of that reserve is not kept. 400 of the 555 are put into the pool as the token side of the opening liquidity, and that position is locked: the contract that holds it has no withdraw function, and any attempt to pull liquidity out of the pool is rejected. Nobody can take it back out, including us.

What is actually held is 2.8% of the collection. Team units are on a schedule with nothing at all for the first 30 days, then a gradual release over the following 180. The rest sits with the treasury for marketing and for whatever goes wrong.

fees.sys - the 3% on every trade

Every trade in the pool pays 3%. That rate is fixed in the contract. It splits four ways, and two thirds of it leaves the project entirely and goes to holders.

Read the last row again. Of a 3% fee, the creator wallet keeps a twentieth of it. The rest goes to survivors, to the pool, and to the $STONKBROKER burn.

launch.log - the first 87 minutes

When The Bell rings, the trading fee does not start at 3%. It starts at 90% and falls by one percentage point every minute until it reaches 3% at minute 87. It never goes back up.

This exists to make sniping the opening pointless. A bot that buys the first block and dumps it hands over almost everything to do so. The opening belongs to the people who actually minted.

whitelist.ini - The Queue is exempt

The decay does not apply to The Queue. A wallet that signed the guestbook pays the permanent 3% from the very first minute, while everyone else is still working their way down from 90%. After The Queue freezes, that wallet sends one free registration transaction (gas only) to the pool's hook and is on the 3% list from the first block. Registration is a transaction; joining The Queue is not.

Same pool, same block, same trade: a wallet in The Queue pays 3% and the wallet that showed up late pays up to 90%. It is the same list that gets the $1 mint price. Signing the guestbook is free.

holders.txt - what you actually receive

Holding a startup does nothing on its own. Burning the token behind it is what makes it survive, and a survived startup is what receives a share of trading.

If you
Then
Hold a startup
You own the art and can sell it at any time. Nothing accrues.
Burn it to survive
The startup is marked survived and joins the group that shares 2% of every trade, for as long as trading happens.
Survive early
The same 2% is divided among fewer survivors, so each share is larger. As more startups survive, each share is smaller.
Sell a startup on
A 5% royalty on that sale goes to the treasury Safe, one receiver fixed at deployment, where marketplaces honor it.

Burning also shrinks the supply that can be traded, because a survived startup is out of circulation for good. The collection is 5,555 whether anyone survives or not, but the number that can change hands only ever falls.

readme.txt - what is fixed and what is not

Every percentage on this page is fixed in code before launch and cannot be changed afterwards. What a startup trades for on any given day is not one of them. That price is set by whoever is buying, which is nobody in particular and no promise of ours.

Rewards are promotional and are not investment income. Nothing here is a forecast, an offer or advice, and none of it says a startup will be worth anything. This is a game about a crash.

dotcom.systems is a leading provider of survival. 5,555 startups. One crash. Burn the token behind a startup and it survives the crash: it leaves the tradeable supply and earns a share of the fee on each trade in the pool, for as long as the pool trades. Rewards are promotional and are not investment income.
