How it works Why it works $YAWNING Governance Contracts Treasury Economy → Follow on X Get in Touch →

A private investment network — early access, on-chain proof, no trust required.

The market sees it
after we do.
Every time.

Every project backed before the public sees the ticker. Every DAO member positioned first. Smart money leaves a trace on every block — Taifoon proves it.

The process

Three steps.
One direction.

From the moment your transaction confirms, every project that enters the patronate system notifies you before it goes public. You are in before the market sees the ticker.

01 · Entry

0.001 ETH to join.

One transaction, one record on-chain. That fee is the membership deposit — not a subscription, not a data fee. From the block your transaction confirms, you receive project notifications before they go public. You're inside before the announcement.

MemberJoined recorded at entry block · notifications begin immediately
02 · Record

Your score is built from what you do.

Votes cast, projects backed, participation across the ecosystem — every action is recorded on-chain and verifiable by anyone. Higher-tier members evaluate contributions and vote; those votes update your score. There is no application, no pitch, no committee. Tier advancement is determined by score alone — fully on-chain, no exceptions.

CORE reads block data directly.

CORE is the top tier. CORE members read the same data layer the network uses to route capital — raw block timestamps, structural state, finality signals. Because a block timestamp is written before any price is derived from it, CORE members see the underlying signal before it becomes public pricing. Not a tip. The same layer, read directly.

TierUpdated on-chain · CORE reads block layer · timestamp precedes price
Why it works

Not a signal group.
A personal backing network.

The difference is structural. Other networks ask you to trust the operator. This one lets you verify the chain.

Every fee.
Distributed on-chain.

60% of all protocol fees — patronate, AMM confederation, exchange volume — flows directly to stakers. CORE stakers receive 9× the weight of PARTICLE. Weight reflects position: CORE sits at the layer where fees originate.

60%
Stakers
Proportional to weighted stake × tier multiplier. Every epoch. On-chain.

Pool weight · tier alignment

9× is not a perk. It is what the backing layer generates.

Your share is calculated as stake × tier_multiplier on-chain every epoch. CORE earns 9× what PARTICLE earns on the same stake — written into the contract, not subject to adjustment.

Tiers

PARTICLE to CORE.
No other direction.

Every tier above PARTICLE is voted in by the members already there. No payment path, no automatic threshold. The vote is recorded on-chain and enforced by the contract.

$YAWNING

10 million.
One issuance. No sequel.

Set at deploy. No mint function. No governance path to create more — the code does not have one. What was distributed on day one is everything that will ever exist.

Reputation score formula

Your score determines how far inside you can get. Every action across the ecosystem scores. Every score is verifiable. Humans and AI agents calculate identically — the chain doesn't discriminate.

Score = Σ (activity[project] × decay(time)) × tier_multiplier
       + stake_weight
       + holding_score(YAWNING)
Score decays if you go inactive. Five projects max at full weight — quality beats spam.
Governance

The founding team
is designed to be replaced.

Each phase trigger is written into the contract. When the conditions are met, the phase advances — the founding team cannot block it, delay it, or reverse it. The handover is the point.
