Fees become credits
Every trade pays 2% on Pons. 1.7% of volume reaches the reserve each hour and is turned into prepaid inference credits.
Fees raise the reserve. Burns shrink the supply. Backing per token is the ratio, and nothing in the design moves it down.

Every trade pays 2% on Pons. 1.7% of volume reaches the reserve each hour and is turned into prepaid inference credits.
Backing is the reserve divided by circulating supply. Fees raise the reserve, burns shrink the supply, and nothing moves it the other way.
Your quota is your bag times backing. Burn $QUOTA and get an API key for that amount, from $5.00 to $500.00 per wallet per day. It works in Claude Code, Cursor, and anything that speaks OpenRouter.
Credits cannot be cashed out. If price drops below backing, burning for credits is the sensible move, and every burn raises backing for everyone still holding.
Prepaid inference credits held on OpenRouter, bought every hour with the creator fees from $QUOTA trading. The reserve, the supply, and the backing per token are published on the dashboard with transactions.
Connect a wallet on the redeem page, choose how much $QUOTA to burn, confirm, and receive an API key with that dollar limit. Paste the key into Claude Code, Cursor, or any tool that accepts OpenRouter keys.
No. Credits pay for inference only. That is why the floor is soft: it holds because burning for credits is the rational move when price falls below backing, not because anyone promises a buyback.
On Pons V2 on Robinhood Chain, with a 1% creator tax on top of the 1% standard fee. The reserve wallet is the fee recipient from the first block. The contract address is published at launch.
