Fee in.
SpaceX out.
Follow the money as it moves. A fee is charged at the launchpad, becomes tokenized SpaceX in the engine, and lands on a broker. The diagrams read top to bottom, in the order it happens, and every number in them is live.
The Pons launchpad
$ROBIN was launched through Pons, a launchpad on Robinhood Chain that we do not control. It trades on a bonding curve until the curve holds enough ETH to graduate, at which point trading moves permanently to a Uniswap v4 pool. Both venues charge the same 5% fee, and that fee is where every payout on this site comes from.
⚠️ Graduation is two permissionless steps, and neither happens on its own: the curve closes, and then somebody has to create the pool. Until they do, $ROBIN has no market at all — so this is a real operational obligation on the live chain, not a detail of the simulation.
Fees in, SpaceX out
Every $ROBIN trade pays a 5% fee. The revenue splitter divides what it takes in 90% to holders — funding the round pot that buys tokenized SpaceX — and 10% to operations. It never holds a balance for longer than the transaction that fills it, so it is drawn as the split it makes rather than an amount sitting in it.
Sharing this round: — total weight across every clocked-in broker.
At the end of each round the engine spends its pot on tokenized SpaceX and credits every clocked-in broker by weight. Anyone can trigger it — the buttons on this site call the same public functions a stranger could, so the payout does not depend on us staying online.
The brokers
A broker is an NFT. Minting one does nothing on its own — it has to be clocked in, which burns $ROBIN and starts it earning. Rank raises what it is worth per round, fusing raises it further and permanently destroys the brokers it absorbs, and any transfer clocks it out again.
Clocking out on transfer is deliberate: it means a broker sold mid-round cannot carry someone else's earnings with it, and it is why a wallet can only ever hold a clocked-in broker that it clocked in itself.
Clock in · fuse · claim
Everything you do with a broker lives in one place — My brokers. Here is what each action does, and what it costs.
Clock in
A broker earns nothing until it is clocked in. Clocking in burns $ROBIN — out of circulation for good — and the broker joins the round in progress, earning tokenized SpaceX from the next settlement on. Pick a rank up front — Intern 1.0×, Manager 2.0×, Director 3.0× — and it is activated at that rank in one go; promoting later burns only the difference. ⚠️ Any transfer clocks a broker out, including a round trip to a marketplace — it has to be clocked in again, and that costs the burn again.
Fuse
Combine two or three brokers into one. Pick a survivor — it keeps its number, takes the combined weight plus a bonus, and inherits everything the others held in the vault. The rest are burned for good, and the supply shrinks permanently — it never goes back up. Two brokers add +25% weight, three add +35%. It is the one irreversible action in the app, so the console asks twice before it runs.
The supply
How the weight is worked out
Weights add, then the bonus multiplies the total. The survivor keeps everything the absorbed brokers had already earned.
Two Interns: 2.00× combined, boosted to 2.50×.
Burns 200,000 $ROBIN, on top of anything already spent on rank.
Three Managers: 6.00× combined, boosted to 8.10×.
Burns 600,000 $ROBIN, on top of anything already spent on rank.
- ⚠️⚠️ Fusion is once only. A broker that has absorbed another can never fuse again — not as a survivor and not as an input. That caps the collection's highest possible weight at 12.15×, three Directors fused three ways, and it is why the supply cannot be ground down indefinitely.
- ⚠️ The absorbed brokers are burned. Not transferred, not escrowed. Their token ids stop existing and the supply falls by one for each.
- Anything an absorbed broker had already earned moves to the survivor, so fusing never strands a payout — a defect the project this forks from still has.
Claim
A clocked-in broker earns tokenized SpaceX every round it is active, delivered to its vault. Withdraw whenever you like — it accrues whether or not you ever press anything. Claiming is gasless: you sign a message and the vault pays your wallet and nobody else, so even a broker holding no ETH can be claimed. A clocked-out broker still holds everything it earned before it stopped.
Robinhood Chain
The live chain. Everything here is real: real ETH, real $ROBIN, real tokenized SpaceX.
The contracts
In the order money moves through them. Everything here is verifiable on the explorer — including the two contracts that are not ours, and the implementation behind each upgradeable proxy, read from the chain rather than from our records.
The token whose trading fees pay for everything. Launched through Pons, not by us.
Where $ROBIN trades until it graduates to a Uniswap v4 pool at 4.2 ETH of reserve.
Receives the trading fee and splits it 90% to holders, 10% to treasury. Upgradeable by a named owner, so the split is a promise rather than bytecode.
The NFT-external engine. Holds the round's pot, buys tokenized SpaceX with it, and hands it out by weight — reading ownership from the clone.
- BrokerVault0x4eDdeF6800283cad5Dc9586557CEE4b48934776b
Holds what each broker has earned until its owner withdraws it.
- Robin Brokers (OpenSea clone)0xaD98E4De613803b5c432f951d137E736ce15B0d4
The 2,222 brokers — a plain OpenSea drop. Clocking one in through the engine burns $ROBIN and starts it earning.
