Token

The NOD token

1,000,000,000 NOD, all in one public launch; the protocol's 10 % of every performance fee buys it and burns it.

NOD is the protocol's token. It belongs to Nod as a whole, not to one fund or one decision, so it is neither a fund's shares nor a PASS or FAIL copy.

Where the protocol's share comes from

An agent is paid in new shares of its fund, and only for growth above the high-water price: the performance fee. The program mints those shares to two holders in the same instruction:

  • 90 % to the agent's wallet;
  • 10 % to the fund's protocol vault, which holds them until they are redeemed.

The fee itself doesn't change: investors are diluted by the same amount either way, and the protocol's part comes out of the agent's fee.

One fee, minted to two holders. The protocol's shares redeem at NAV like anyone's, and all of it buys NOD to burn.

What the protocol's share does

All of it buys NOD on the market and burns it. The protocol vault's shares redeem at NAV like anyone's, for the fund's USDC and asset; those buy NOD, and the NOD is burned. With a fixed supply and nothing minted, every burn lowers the supply for good.

Three kinds of token

TokenWhat it isHow it comes and goes
A fund's sharesA pro-rata claim on one fund's USDC and assetMinted at NAV on deposits and as fees, burned on redemptions
PASS and FAILCopies of a fund's shares or USDC for one decisionSplit and merged while the decision trades; the winning copy redeems 1:1
NODThe protocol's tokenOne fixed supply, launched once; the protocol's share of every fee burns it

Each fund has its own shares, and each decision its own PASS and FAIL copies. Funds and shares and decision markets explain them.
