Access

Utility tiers

Holding $SHADE above defined thresholds unlocks tiered access. Threshold quantities T_1 and T_2 are denominated in $SHADE and adjusted by governance to maintain a target subscriber base.

Free (no holding required): delayed signals, public caster leaderboard, daily digest.
Subscriber (≥ T_1): real-time signals, encrypted research, sniper auto-feed.
Builder (≥ T_2): authenticated API access, higher rate limits, webhook delivery.

Flow

Value accrual

Premium access can be paid in ETH or USDC. The fee flow is fully on-chain and verifiable:

revenue -> operational cost -> buyback($SHADE) -> reward pool

All non-operational fee revenue is used to market-buy $SHADE on Base via a programmatic TWAP executor. The acquired tokens fund a weekly reward pool distributed to the top-performing public snipers as ranked by realized PnL on a public leaderboard. The buyback contract emits events; the reward pool distributes via Merkle drops with public root commitments.
