FANZ — Rules
The rulebook

Twelve rules. All of them on-chain.

FANZ is a thin layer over vaults, launches and liquidity that already exist. This page is the whole deal: what the contracts enforce, what they can't, and what can still go wrong.

RULE 01

You never spend a cent

You put USDG in a jar. The money stays yours and can be withdrawn in full, any day, with no fee and no lock-up. Only the interest the jar earns ever moves. There is no subscription, no tip, no deposit fee.

RULE 02

The jar is a no-loss vault

Deposits sit in the Steakhouse USDG vault on Morpho — the same vault behind Robinhood Earn — and earn about 3.5–4% a year. Withdrawals are never paused, not by us, not by a bot, not by a creator. If the vault ever lost money, the loss would be shared pro-rata; see Risks.

RULE 03

Where the interest goes

Of every $100 of interest
Buys $FANZ and burns it$15
Buys the creator's (or fandom's) coin$85
Of every 10 coins bought
To the fans who put money in the jar, by their share7
To the creator, unlocking linearly over 90 days3
In fandom jars (no creator)10 to fans
RULE 04

Creators earn, never dump

A creator gets no free allocation. Their only coins are 3 of every 10 bought with fans' interest, and they unlock over three months. The jar is bound to the account ID (X, YouTube, Twitch…), not the name; one account, one coin; the coin exists only after the creator verifies. A creator can ask us to close a jar opened in their name — the pot goes back to the fans.

RULE 05

How buys happen

Size of one buy≤ 1% of the pool's USDG
Timingrandom, committed in advance, verifiable after
Price ≤ +5% vs the last hour's averagefull buy
+5% … +15%half
above +15%skip
No buy for 6 hoursminimum buy anyway
Collect interest and buyone transaction

Nobody — including us — knows the minute of the next buy in advance, so nobody can stand in front of it.

RULE 06

Pots: jars for creators who aren't here yet

Anyone can open a jar for any creator. Interest collects in a pot. The day the creator verifies, the pot makes the first buy in the same transaction as the launch. Early fans get more: units are priced at 1 + pot / $2,500 — the first dollar of interest buys 5× the coins of a dollar that arrives at a $10k pot. If nobody claims in 180 days, the pot returns to the fans in proportion to their interest. Deposits were withdrawable the whole time.

RULE 07

Fandom jars for coins that already exist

Any coin on Robinhood Chain with locked liquidity and no transfer tax can have a jar — $PONS, $AI, $INDEX and others. No creator share: all 10 of 10 coins go to the fans. The list of eligible coins is curated and published; criteria are checked by people because the chain can't prove "locked" on its own.

RULE 08

Trading fees on creator coins

Of the 1% fee on every trade
Creator0.40%
Supporters, weighted by deposit × time (never by volume)0.30%
Buys and burns $FANZ0.25%
Doppler (minimum by contract)0.05%
RULE 09

$FANZ only goes down

Every dollar the protocol earns — 15% of all interest, 0.25% of trades, boosts — buys $FANZ and burns it, by the same rules as jar buys. There are no points, no airdrops, no rewards for posting, no team allocation: the team bought at launch on Pons like everyone else. You don't need $FANZ to use FANZ.

RULE 10

What we can't do

Touch deposits. Pause withdrawals. Change 70/30 or 15/85 for existing jars. Give anyone free coins. Pick the time of a buy. Parameters (chunk size, price stops, P50) change only through a 48-hour timelock, and the one instant switch we keep moves funds to a safer source, never a riskier one.

RULE 11

What can still go wrong

Morpho vault loses money (contract bug, bad loan)loss shared pro-rata
Vault liquidity runs shortwithdrawal waits, never fails silently
USDG issuer pauses or freezes addressesoutside our control
Our contractsaudit before launch, bug bounty after
Creator coinscan go to zero; interest keeps buying anyway

Numbers on this prototype are demo data. Interest estimates assume a 3.5% base rate on USDG lending; rates and bonuses can end. Nothing here is financial advice.
