The desk

PUT YOUR DEGEN
ON THE DESK.

A degen sitting in your wallet is a degen on a break. Put it on the desk and it works the one floor where the stocks are already on chain: lock it, and it accrues tokenized equity — the same AAPL, NVDA and the rest that trade natively here.

None of this is live. There is no staking contract, no token and no vault. Nothing accrues today, nothing can be deposited, and there is nothing to connect a wallet to. This page is the design, published early so it can be argued with rather than announced later.

How it is meant to work

Four steps, and the third is the one that decides whether the other three are worth anything.

01Clock inThe degen goes into the staking contract and stops being transferable while it is on shift. Clocking out is always open: nothing here has a lockup you cannot leave.
02It works the shiftEvery degen on shift earns a share of the desk, per block, split evenly before badges are taken into account.
03The desk buys stockThe treasury converts what it takes into tokenized equities on Robinhood Chain and holds them against what has been accrued. This is the load-bearing step, and it is spelled out below.
04Claim in equityYou claim the stock itself, not points and not a governance token. It lands in your wallet as the tokenized share it is.

Where the money would come from

Every staking programme is a claim about revenue. Most of them do not say what the revenue is, which is how they end up paying holders with holders’ money. Here it is, in advance, so it can be checked afterwards.

Mint proceeds

The mint is paid in our own token, launched through Pons on Robinhood Chain. A fixed share of what the mint raises is what seeds the desk, and it is set before the mint opens rather than decided after it.

Secondary royalties

The royalty on secondary sales goes to the same desk. A collection that trades pays the people holding it, which is the only version of this that survives a quiet month.

Nothing else

No emissions, no inflating a reward token to pay yesterday’s stakers. If the desk takes nothing in a week, it buys nothing that week, and the page will say so.

Badges, after the bell

Badges are sealed until the bell, so the multiplier cannot be published yet without publishing the thing it multiplies. The shape is decided: a rarer degen earns a larger share of the same pool, the curve is shallow rather than winner-takes-all, and the numbers go up here on the day the badges issue, before the first shift, not after.

Badge multipliers unlock with the badges. Until then, treat every degen on the floor as earning the same share, because that is what the contract would do.

Before the desk opens

In order. Each one is a real dependency, not a milestone invented to fill a roadmap.
