Tokenomics

Rewards come from fees, not from printing.

Nothing is minted. Miners are paid in $CXS bought on the open market with trading fees, out of a fixed daily pool. When trading is busy the surplus builds a treasury; when it goes quiet the treasury pays the pool. Meme volume always dies — this is designed around that instead of pretending otherwise.

Check this address before you buy. Tickers are not unique on this chain — anything else calling itself $CXS is not us, no matter what it looks like.

How value flows

Fees in, rewards out

01

Fair launch

$CXS launches on a public launchpad with no team allocation and no pre-mine. We buy in on the same terms as everyone else, or not at all.

02

Trading fees accumulate

A share of every trade flows to the project as creator fees. That is the only revenue stream — there is no reserve of tokens waiting to be sold into the market.

03

A daily pool is paid out

The pool is the lowest of three numbers: 25% of that day's fees, a ramp of $150 plus $25 per active miner, and a hard cap of $200. Revenue sets the ceiling, the ramp stops a handful of miners collecting the whole cap, and the cap stops anyone farming it by spinning up wallets. All three are totals, never per-person guarantees — extra wallets only dilute their own share. The cap rises as the miner base grows, announced here before it changes.

04

The surplus backstops the quiet months

Whatever the fees earn beyond the pool accumulates in the treasury, and the treasury funds the floor once volume falls — because volume always falls. Spending it all in week one would leave nothing for month six.

Pool review
Quarterly, announced before it changes
daily_pool  = min( max(fee_revenue * 0.25, $100),
                   $150 + $25 * active_miners,
                   $200 )
daily_pool  = min(daily_pool, fee_revenue + treasury)
treasury   += fee_revenue - daily_pool
your_share  = daily_pool * (your_score / total_score)
How the score works
score = novelty * (conf / 100) * (1 + 10 * centrality)

novelty     1.0 first to submit a claim, 0.1 second, 0.0 after
conf        the model's confidence, must be >= 70 to count
centrality  how well the claim's entities connect that day's graph

your_score  = sum of the scores of all your claims that day

The pool is split by contribution, not per head. Submitting one weak claim does not earn what fifty good ones do, and an extra wallet only dilutes its own share.

Values marked “Set at launch” are published here the day the token goes live, and not before. We would rather leave a blank than post a number we later revise.

The 2026 contract

Retired

We launched an earlier version of this project on Ethereum in April 2026. It did not find an audience and we shut the servers down in June. The original $CXS contract is still visible on Ethereum mainnet and we are not hiding it.

It is not the token being launched now, it carries no claim on the new supply, and its disposal is published in full. If you are going to check one thing about us, check that.

Contract address and disposal record are published before launch.

The knowledge these rewards pay for is public and checkable. See the on-chain record →
