Risk, in plain English

What you're getting into. No small print.

Real yield from real sales, backed by an immutable contract with no admin key that can move or seize staked funds.

Here is exactly how you're protected, and just as honestly, where the risk actually sits.

Your principal

Can the team take or freeze my stake?

No. The vault is an immutable contract on Base. There is no admin function to move, pause, or seize staked principal, and no upgrade path to add one. Your deposit stays segregated from operating margin in the contract's own accounting.

Verified on-chain (Sourcify). A 48-hour timelock governs every privileged change, so even a fully compromised admin key cannot act instantly.
Where yield comes from

Is this real yield or token emissions?

Real. You earn a share of the margin on actual gift-card sales. That is a live business with real revenue, not newly printed tokens. When cards sell, margin is booked on-chain and split to stakers.

The trailing figure shown is the realised rate from attested sales, published daily on the Proof page. Nothing here is a promised or fixed rate.
The main risk

What if sales slow down?

Your earnings are variable. In a slow month the margin, and therefore your payout, is smaller. The rate is never promised and can fall toward zero in a bad stretch. It does not go negative: a quiet month means low earnings, not a loss of principal.

Sales and solvency are attested on-chain daily. If attestation goes stale, deposits pause automatically (fail-closed) rather than run on bad data.
Getting out

Can I always withdraw?

Yes, with two lanes. The free lane returns principal after a 30-day cooldown window. The fast lane returns it within 24 hours for a fee that is recycled to the stakers who wait. Exit capacity is bounded per window so a rush can't drain the float.

Cooldown and fast-exit terms are fixed in the immutable contract. They cannot be changed on you after you stake.
Smart-contract risk

Could the code have a bug?

Any smart contract carries this risk, and we won't pretend otherwise. The contracts are immutable, so what you review is what runs, permanently.

Independently auditable: source is verified on-chain and the full test suite is public. We stake alongside you as the first depositor.
Eligibility

Who can use it?

Access is geo- and sanctions-screened at the point of deposit. Some regions are restricted. This is revenue-share participation, not a deposit account, and not investment advice.

Screening is enforced before any deposit permit is issued. Review the Terms for the full eligibility and jurisdiction detail.

The honest summary: your principal can't be taken or trapped, and your earnings are real but variable. Read the live proof and the terms.

Pool capacity

Full means sales are using every dollar. More sales, more room.
