Genesis market

    Wallets reserve a spot before launch. The first Miners are picked.

  2. Genesis auction

    A fixed slice of supply is sold. The end is set in the contract.

  3. One clearing price

    Every winning bid pays the same price. Nobody pays above their max.

  • Locked pool

    Most of the raise seeds a Uniswap pool, locked forever.

  • Genesis Miners

    The rest pays the first Miners in USDC at settlement.

  • Burn

    Tokens the auction does not sell are burnt.

Trading opens

The pool is live, and the season starts the next day.

Genesis runs once, at launch.

Season market

  1. Rank

    Every wallet is scored on the market's activity. The board's hash is posted.

  2. Daily auction

    The day's slice of supply goes on sale. Busy activity days release more.

  3. One clearing price

    Every winning bid pays the same price, never below the pool price.

  • Miners

    A share, in USDC.

  • Locked liquidity

    A share deepens the pool, locked forever.

  • Zeru

    The rest is the fee.

  • Burn
