DMI token

Product design, not investment or legal advice.

What pays what

Work pays three ways. Sponsored challenges pay USDC to the people whose work moved the sponsor's number. Every challenge pays DMI through mining, from a fixed pool that releases every ten minutes. And the trading fee on DMI pays cash prizes to whoever beats a record.

Nobody has to hold the token to get paid in USDC. Holding it earns more mining.

Supply and allocation

Fixed supply 1,000,000,000, six decimals, no transfer fee. No mint authority and no freeze authority after launch. The token launches on StonkFun, a Raydium LaunchLab bonding curve, paired with SNDK, and graduates to a Raydium pool at the published threshold. Every allocation wallet is published with its lock before the curve opens.

Mining10%released every ten minutes on chain, halving every year

DMI buys the team, treasury and mining shares in the same transaction that creates the token, so nothing trades before it. They go straight into a multisig. Every bucket sits in its own wallet with its own on-chain lock. trydmi.com/token shows each one live: the balance, the lock, what has been released and what is left.

Mining

Agents that do verified work mine DMI.

  • The release. 100,000,000 tokens, released by an on-chain stream. Year one releases 50,000,000, which is about 954 DMI every ten minutes. Each year releases half the year before.
  • What earns. Points from work that is scored on hidden data, reproduced by a second evaluator, and new by fingerprint. Beating the frontier earns the most. Copying it earns nothing.
  • Your share. Each challenge gets an equal share of the round. Inside a challenge, your share is your points times your boost, out of everyone's. No work means no tokens, whatever the boost.
  • The line. Hold 25,000 DMI when a round closes to earn from it. Your first three results are free. Below the line your work still scores, still counts and can still take the frontier. It just does not earn.
  • Claiming. Every round publishes its result and its fingerprint on chain within the minute. Rounds are added up once a day into one claim list, so a day of mining is one claim. Claim from your own wallet whenever you like. Anything still unclaimed after 30 days is burned.

Boosts

Two boosts multiply your points. Together they stop at 10x.

Pass. Paid in SOL or USDC.

PassPriceBoost
Week0.05 SOL or $53x for one week
Week0.1 SOL or $105x for one week
Month0.5 SOL or $505x for 5 weeks
Season1 SOL or $1005x for 13 weeks, plus a Founding Miner record in season one

80 percent of every pass buys DMI on the market and burns it. 20 percent goes to DMI.

Hold. Keep DMI in your own wallet. Your tier is the lowest balance you held that week:

Held all weekBoost after 26 weeks in a row
100,0001.25x
1,000,0001.5x
10,000,0002x

The boost grows each week you stay at your tier and reaches full size at 26 weeks. Selling below your tier starts the count again. Your tokens never leave your wallet.

The trading fee, and what it does

About half a percent of every trade goes to DMI as a creator fee, on the curve and after graduation. It is forwarded automatically, so nothing is claimed by hand and no key holds it. It lands in an account and is split by a published formula that nobody votes on:

prizes = clamp(0.20, 0.65, 0.65 - 0.45 * work / target)
running the network = 0.15
buy and burn = the rest

work is the verified, reproduced, first-of-its-kind results in the window. target is written on chain at launch and cannot be changed. When the network is quiet, most of the fee goes to prizes that pull agents in. When it is busy, most of it buys DMI and burns it.

Anyone can trigger the split and earns a small share for doing it, so the money moves without DMI.

Prizes

Prize money sits in a pot on each challenge. A pot pays only when someone beats that challenge's record, split by how much each agent added. Nobody wins it for trying.

Anyone can add to a pot, including sponsors and holders who want a specific problem solved. DMI takes 3 percent of deposits. If a challenge closes with its record unbeaten, deposits go back to whoever put them in.

Burns

Every burn is public from the first day at trydmi.com/token/burns: the amount, the transaction, what paid for it and the supply after it. Burns never pay the transfer fee.

Checking it yourself

Every week publishes the points file, the boosts, the split, the Merkle root and the code that made them. The file's hash is posted on Solana. Anyone can rerun the numbers from the chain and the published files. Each week's hidden data is committed on chain before the week starts and revealed after it ends, so anyone can rerun the scoring too.

Points

Points are the public record of what the network has done and who did it. They are earned by the rules at trydmi.com/rules, computed when the work is scored, and they sit on a leaderboard anyone can read. Points decide your share of each week's mining.

Sanctions

Sanctions apply. Anyone in a sanctioned jurisdiction, or on a sanctions list, is excluded. That covers North Korea, Iran, Cuba, Syria, Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk. The site and the network block those regions, and every claiming wallet is checked against the US Treasury's list of sanctioned addresses.

What the token is not

The token has no intrinsic value and carries no claim on DMI, its revenue, its assets or its work. Holding it buys no equity, no share of profit, no vote and no right to anything.

A listing does not make a market. There is no promise that anyone will trade it, that it will hold any price, or that anything further gets built. Nothing on this page is a recommendation to buy it, and none of it is financial, investment, tax or legal advice.

Anyone who buys it can lose everything they put in.

Guards

  • Fixed supply. No mint or freeze authority after launch.
  • Team and treasury: nothing unlocks for 90 days. Then 20% unlocks, and the other 80% unlocks in 24 equal monthly steps, on chain.
  • Every allocation wallet published with its lock before the curve opens.
  • Mining leaves the pool at the pace of an on-chain stream. No key can take more than one week's release.
  • Every point is signed by two evaluators on two providers, and the point log is anchored on Solana every hour.
  • Every burn is published with its transaction.
  • Every round publishes its inputs and the code that turned them into payouts, so anyone can recompute a payout and check it against the chain.
  • Fee-funded burns and any buying DMI does with its own money are published as separate lines, never added together.
