Goldwars Protocol

There are 7 veins on a single isometric desk. You strike a vein with the pair asset, earn $GWAR while you hold it, and exit when someone outbids you — taking 85% of the next strike price.

$GWAR fair-launches against GLD (SPDR Gold Shares · Robinhood Token) on Pons. The protocol does not pre-fund a mining vault and does not mint a team allocation. Mining rewards come only from buybacks: strike ETH is routed ETH → GLD → $GWAR into the vault.

• Seven veins — scarcity by design
• Owner-only — no renters, no leases
• Pair asset to strike rails — $GWAR vs GLD; mine and stake $GWAR
• Transparent split: 85% · 3% · 10% · 2%
• Fixed floor step: +10% after each successful strike

1. 01Open the war desk and select a vein.
2. 02Strike at the live floor.
3. 03Hold to accrue $GWAR mining from the buyback-funded vault.
4. 04Optionally stake $GWAR to earn a share of the 3% slice.
5. 05When outbid, take 85% of the next strike — instantly.
6. 06Repeat on the same vein or expand across the desk.

Scarcity is the product. With seven veins, every outbid is visible and liquid — closer to classic conquest than a dense tile map.

• Shared genesis floor (configurable at deploy)
• After each strike: nextPrice = price × 1.10
• Weight affects mining only — not strike price

• Vault funded solely by buybacks (no prefund)
• Idle > 7 days → 25% effective weight
• Claim mining refreshes activity

• Claim rewards anytime (independent of unstake)
• Instant unstake — no cooldown

$GWAR launches vs GLD (0xC9a981…FC4e) on Pons. Addresses fill from env after deploy.

Buyback route after graduate: ETH → GLD → $GWAR (GoldwarsPonsRouter).

• Smart contract risk
• Liquidity risk — buybacks need live WETH/GLD and GLD/$GWAR routes
• No guaranteed APY — mining emerges from strike volume
