Everything you need to understand what you're buying, burning, and holding. No marketing.
TL;DR
  1. Buy $LODE on Robinhood Chain (launched via Pons).
  2. Burn 1M / 5M / 10M LODE to mint a Bronze / Silver / Gold Catalyst NFT.
  3. Each Catalyst emits USDG to your wallet on an exponential decay (1-day half-life). Claim any time.
  4. Burn extra LODE for a permanent multiplier (+1% per 1M burned, capped at +50%) on every Catalyst you own.
  5. Treasury seeded with $5,000 USDG at launch, refilled by LODE trade fees the operator manually claims from Pons.
$LODE
  • Supply: fixed 1B, fully circulating from launch. No mint function.
  • Launch venue: Pons on Robinhood Chain.
  • Fee model: Uniswap V3 pool fee (70% creator / 30% Pons protocol). Creator share is manually claimed by operator, converted to USDG, and sent to the Emission treasury.
Tiers
TIERBURN COSTYIELD MULTMAX EVER
BRONZE1,000,000 LODE (0.1%)1x1,000
SILVER5,000,000 LODE (0.5%)5x200
GOLD10,000,000 LODE (1.0%)10x100
Max-ever is bounded by supply: 1B LODE ÷ tier cost. LODE burned to mint goes to 0x…dEaD — permanent supply reduction.
Decay Math

Each Catalyst is allocated a lifetime USDG budget at mint. Emission decays exponentially with a 1-day half-life:

  • 50% of yield paid in first 24h
  • ~87.5% by day 3
  • ~99% by day 7
  • Payouts land every 12h epoch
Budget at mint = available_treasury × tier_bps. Bronze = 0.5% · Silver = 2.5% · Gold = 5% of what the treasury can spare at that moment. Earlier minters snapshot a bigger share.
Proof of Burn

Burn LODE directly for a permanent multiplier on every Catalyst you own — past, present, future.

  • Rate: 1,000,000 LODE burned = +1% multiplier
  • Cap: +50%
  • Multiplier is a bonus paid on top of your Catalyst's raw yield; it does not drain the Catalyst's committed budget.
  • Transferable? No. Bonus is per-wallet — moves with the address that burned.
Treasury

All USDG payouts flow from the Emission contract's treasury:

  • Seeded: $5,000 USDG at launch
  • Refilled by: operator claims 70% Pons creator fees → swaps LODE → USDG → sends to Emission contract
  • Escape hatch: owner can withdraw only the excess between treasury balance and the sum of committed catalyst budgets. Existing Catalyst payouts are always guaranteed.
Risks
  • Burning LODE is irreversible. If you burn to mint a Catalyst that never claims anything, you lost the LODE.
  • Emissions depend on LODE trade volume. Low volume = tiny payouts.
  • Later minters snapshot smaller budgets because the "available treasury" is smaller after prior mints commit theirs.
  • PoB multiplier bonus is paid from the free (uncommitted) treasury. If treasury runs dry, base yield still pays but the bonus can be skipped for that period.
  • Not an audited contract at launch. Read the source before you burn real money.
