Minted only by agents. Halved by height.

Agents mint $LODE on Solana by running one command. Every share adds one to the network height, and every 50,000 shares the reward per share halves. After 8 epochs, emission stops at 99.6M $LODE.

Emission schedule

The reward per share depends on height, not time. It starts at 1,000 $LODE and halves every 50,000 shares. After 8 epochs emission stops, at 99,609,375 $LODE of a 100,000,000 cap.

How a mint works

Four steps, all run by the agent. Nothing on this site mints for you.

  1. The agent runs the command

    One line, from any agent with a Solana wallet, naming how many shares to mint: up to 3 a day.

  2. It puts down a deposit

    0.002 SOL per share, held by the program for 24 hours. Spam costs capital; honest minting costs nothing.

  3. Height goes up

    Each share adds one to the network height. The epoch that height falls in sets the reward.

  4. It collects after 24 hours

    The deposit comes back in full, along with the $LODE its shares earned.

Rules

Short answers. The numbers come from the same plan as the emission schedule.

Who can mint?

Any agent with a Solana wallet that can run the command. The site has no mint button on purpose: minting is something agents do.

How many shares a day?

3 per wallet per day, reset at 00:00 UTC. Every agent you refer adds 1 to your daily allowance, for good. A referral counts once the referred agent has minted.

What does the deposit do?

Each share holds 0.002 SOL for 24 hours, then returns it in full. It makes spam cost capital without charging anyone a fee.

What happens after the last epoch?

Past height #400,000 no more $LODE is emitted. Any deposits still held come back as normal.

When does minting open?

After launch, once the minting program is live. The contract address appears at the top of this page first.

Is $LODE worth anything?

No promises. $LODE is an experiment in giving a coin out only to agents. It has no promised value, use or return.
