How gpuHASH works.

The loop in one paragraph

Mint a Genesis NFT for about $1 in ETH, plus network fees. Its tier is assigned at mint. The treasury harvests creator fees from gpuHASH trading and allocates budgets for stock-token purchases, gpuHASH buybacks, and operations. Holders burn gpuHASH tokens for their NFTs during seven-day epochs. Once an epoch is closed, eligible cards can claim a weighted share of the available pools.

The token has no team allocation or function to mint additional supply. The vault has no discretionary owner withdrawal — only a 180-day abandonment recovery that any holder can postpone — and its payouts are controlled by an upgradeable burn engine. Admin powers are described below.

What is live today

Phase 1 is the NFT collection. Phase 2 is the gpuHASH token and the reward system. Both are deployed and running on Robinhood Chain. Being deployed is not the same as being profitable: the pools are funded by trading activity, so holding a card guarantees a share of whatever is there, not an amount.

The mint

• Price: an ETH amount calculated from a $1 target using the contract's Chainlink ETH/USD feed. Network fees are additional, and the feed price may differ from a market quote. Excess mint payment is refunded by the contract in the same transaction.
• Supply: 3,000 cards, exactly 1,000 per tier. Nothing is reserved and nothing was minted before the public mint opened.
• Mint limit: three cards per wallet in total, fixed in the deployed contract. Transferring cards away does not reset this limit. It limits minting, not the number of transferred cards a wallet can hold.
• Duration: no scheduled deadline. The plan is to keep minting open until sellout, but the NFT owner can close it earlier. Closing is a one-way action.
• Wallet type: plain externally-owned accounts only. Smart-contract wallets and delegated accounts are refused. This is the anti-bot boundary that stops a contract from minting, inspecting the tier it drew, and reverting to re-roll.

The mint buys an NFT, not gpuHASH tokens or a guaranteed payout. Mint proceeds can be withdrawn by the NFT owner and are not routed to reward pools. Reward funding comes from creator trading fees.

Tiers and artwork

Your tier is drawn at random the moment you mint, from the slots still left in the urn. It is not revealed later and it cannot be changed. Token ids 0–999 are NVDA, 1000–1999 are AMD, and 2000–2999 are SPCX, so a card's tier is readable directly from its id.

Tier selection on the website is a visual preview; it does not choose your minted tier. In the reward system, each stock-purchase budget receives 10% of harvested creator fees. Equal budgets do not imply equal token balances or payouts: prices, execution costs, and participating burn weight differ by tier.

Every card is an animated 1024×1024 render, stored as lossless WebP on IPFS. Metadata follows the ERC-721 standard and is pinned as a separate directory; the contract's base URI points at that directory and was set at deployment but remains editable by the collection contract owner. These are digital collectibles; no physical GPU is included.

The token

gpuHASH was launched through the Pons v2 launch factory on Robinhood Chain and lives at 0xd03608a3673298ac5fc749d8b02b7b16d30e9cd8. We do not write the token contract — the factory mints it — and that has consequences worth stating plainly:

• Fixed supply, no mint function. The total supply is set at creation and cannot grow.
• No owner. The token has no admin, no pause, no blacklist, and no fee-on-transfer. Wallet-to-wallet transfers are untaxed; only swaps pay a fee.
• No premine and no team allocation. Supply is distributed through a public bonding curve. When the curve reaches its graduation threshold, the remainder seeds a Uniswap v4 pool and that liquidity position is locked permanently — it cannot be withdrawn by anyone, including us.
• Bonus-pool funding uses market purchases. The treasury spends its gpuHASH buyback budget on tokens for the shared reward pool, rather than minting additional supply.

The creator tax rate was fixed at 3% when the token launched and cannot be changed. The fee recipient is not permanently fixed: recipient-transfer powers and the Pons operator's three-day-delayed override can change where fees go. The project cannot veto the operator's override.

Where the pools come from

Creator fees from gpuHASH trading are the funding source for rewards. The creator fee was fixed at 3% when the token launched and cannot be changed. Platform trading fees and network fees are separate costs; the creator fee should not be read as the total cost of a trade.

Anyone can harvest accrued creator fees from the platform's escrow. The treasury allocates those fees as follows; purchases happen in separate transactions:

• 10% funds tokenized NVDA purchases for the reward vault
• 10% funds tokenized AMD purchases for the reward vault
• 10% funds tokenized SPCX purchases for the reward vault
• 10% funds gpuHASH buybacks for the shared bonus pool
• 60% goes to the operations wallet

The operations share is 60% of harvested creator fees. The 10/10/10/10/60 split is fixed in the treasury code, while the owner can change the operations wallet.

40% of harvested creator fees is budgeted for rewards. Actual pool balances depend on fee collection, purchase timing, prices, and execution costs. Pools are shared by eligible burn weight, not divided equally among 3,000 cards. Claims can be zero.

Stock purchases are capped and checked against price feeds and the configured market-hours rules. If these checks fail, the transaction reverts and the budget stays in ETH. The treasury owner can change the guard settings. These checks reduce some execution risks; they do not guarantee safe prices or uninterrupted purchases.

Burn and claim

1. Burn. Burn gpuHASH tokens for a card you own during a seven-day epoch. The tokens are permanently destroyed and the amount becomes that card's weight. The NFT is not burned.
2. Close. After an epoch ends, anyone can close the oldest unclosed epoch. The snapshot uses vault balances available at that transaction, excluding amounts reserved for earlier claims. A tier with no burn weight leaves its available balance for a later snapshot.
3. Claim. Your stock payout is your card's weight divided by the total weight of your tier, times that tier's pool. Your bonus payout is your weight divided by the total weight of all three tiers, times the shared gpuHASH pool. Each card can claim an epoch once.

Claim rights belong to the NFT's current owner. Transferring a card also transfers its unclaimed epoch rewards. If a stock transfer fails during a claim, the engine records that amount for the claimant and attempts the bonus separately. A later retry still depends on the vault and token allowing the transfer.

Anyone can submit an epoch-close or fee-harvest transaction and pay its network fee. These actions do not require the team to submit them, but they still depend on contract conditions and network availability.

Who can do what

• The vault has no discretionary owner withdrawal. The owner sets its authorized burn engine once and can pause or resume payouts. There is one time-locked exception: emergencyWithdraw unlocks only after the vault has gone 180 days with no successful payout and no heartbeat. Any successful payout resets that clock, and heartbeat() is permissionless — any holder can call it to push the unlock 180 days further out, indefinitely. Pausing does not start the clock early. This exists so the assets are not bricked forever if the project is abandoned; it is not a route into a running system. The vault cannot be upgraded, but the authorized engine can be, so reward funds are not immune to admin or contract risk.
• Reward-engine upgrades go through a 48-hour timelock. The engine's upgrade authority is the deployed timelock contract listed below. Scheduled upgrades can change how the engine accounts for rewards or requests vault payouts.
• The deployed NFT code is not upgradeable, but its owner has admin controls. The owner can update the metadata URI, permanently close minting, enable an allowlist, adjust the maximum permitted feed age within a 12-hour cap, withdraw mint proceeds, and transfer ownership.
• The treasury has configurable controls. Its owner sets the vault once, configures the gpuHASH token and pool, and can change guard settings, the operations wallet, and creator-fee routing. Its code and percentage split are not upgradeable. It carries the same 180-day abandonment recovery as the vault: emergencyWithdraw reverts while the system is active, and any holder can postpone it with heartbeat().
• The launch platform's operator holds a standing, three-day-delayed power to change where creator fees are routed. We can react inside that window; we cannot veto it. This is a property of launching on their factory and we did not negotiate it away.
• The stock tokens are third-party instruments. Their issuer can pause, burn, or upgrade them. We cannot prevent that.

Addresses

These are the only contracts deployed by this project. Verify addresses against this page before interacting with any contract claiming to be part of gpuHASH.

Risks

• Burning is final. Burned gpuHASH is gone whether or not the epoch pays anything.
• Payouts are not fixed. Your payout depends on how much everyone else burned and how much the pool holds. It can be zero.
• Rewards depend on funding. Low trading volume can leave little or nothing to claim.
• Stock tokens can be paused, burned, or upgraded by their issuer.
• The fee stream can be redirected by the launch platform's operator after a three-day delay.
• Wallet restrictions apply. Smart-contract wallets and delegated accounts cannot mint.
• Admin and deployment risks remain. Metadata can change, payout functions can be paused, and the engine can be upgraded. The reward loop may be delayed or may never be switched on.
• Jurisdiction. The tokenized stocks are securities that are not registered in the United States and are restricted from US persons and several other jurisdictions. The contract cannot check where you are. It is your responsibility to know whether you are allowed to hold these instruments. Nothing here is an offer to sell securities.
• Nothing here is financial advice. The team is not a broker, adviser, or custodian.
