Every model OpenRouter routes. One key. Credit only after the inventory is paid for.

Your request reaches the model you named, unchanged, on zero-retention endpoints. Your prompts are never written. Hold FOLIO and you earn API credit from trading fees. Buy with USDG and the same fees can bring your price under cost.

Your balance is never larger than what OpenRouter will actually serve. If the books would go past that, buying and new awards pause until they match. Checked every 5 minutes.

The 2% tax, split

Dev 50% –Perk 25% –Discount 25% –

Fees arrive in NVDA and leave the fee Safe in three fixed shares you can check on chain. Staked FOLIO counts twice in the perk; FOLIO you hold counts once. Unsold NVDA is inventory, not yet your credit. NVDA is about – on the v4 pool; 0.000 NVDA sits across the three vaults.

How the money moves

03 / 03

01 · Fees

Every FOLIO trade pays a 2% tax in NVDA. It lands in the fee Safe and leaves in three fixed shares.

02 · Convert

NVDA in the perk and discount vaults is sold for USDG, and the USDG buys OpenRouter credit. Each leg is recorded from chain data on the Treasury page.

03 · Credit

A dollar lands on your balance only after OpenRouter has been paid for it. Nothing reaches you ahead of cash.

When volume fades

Token volume can go to zero and your key keeps working at cost. There is no second token and no peg. Your discount and your holder perk shrink to whatever NVDA fees actually converted; nothing is credited to you ahead of cash.

What a trade pays

Trades pay the Pons base fee plus the fixed 2% creator tax, about 3% of the NVDA leg, plus a short opening snipe tax on early buys. Buybacks are off. Half of the tax funds development and is not yours; the other half is, as holder perk and buyer discount. The split is public, so you can check the 50 / 25 / 25 ratio on every claim.
