WAKE THE SHADES.MINE $SHADE

Share height and halving

• Every share mined anywhere (GPU, click or pool) raises the share height by one.
• The base reward starts at 94,500 $SHADE per share and halves every 50,000 shares. Mining stops after 11 epochs (550,000 shares). There is no end date: every halving the daily allocation shrinks, so each epoch takes longer (about 1, 2, 3 … 11 days, ~66 days in all) and shares get scarcer.
• A batch that crosses a halving is split: earlier shares at the old reward, later ones at the new.

GPU mine

• Your GPU searches for a hash under the target. Each share locks 0.03 HYPE. After 12 hours you claim the $SHADE and 100% of the HYPE. GPU mine fee: 0%.
• Shares are mined against the mine's anchor, which changes every 15 minutes. You always get at least 15 minutes to stake a batch, or it expires.
• Every day has a fixed share allocation, split between GPU and click. GPU and pool shares get 35,000 a day in epoch 1, 17,500 in epoch 2, and so on (35,000 ÷ epoch), so epoch 1 can be mined in a day, epoch 2 takes two days, up to eleven days for epoch 11.
• Difficulty climbs through the day: the first GPU share of the day is easy, every share makes the next one a little harder, and the last share of the day is 4,096x harder than the first. When the day's allocation is gone, GPU mining waits for the next day. A day that fills starts the next day 1 bit harder; a quiet day (under a quarter used) starts 1 bit easier.

Click mine

• No GPU needed: pick how many shares and lock 0.03 HYPE each. Claim after 12 hours with 98% of the HYPE; 2% is the click fee.
• Half the base reward and no souls.
• Click shares have their own daily count (same numbers as GPU), and get their own daily allocation: 15,000 a day in epoch 1, 7,500 in epoch 2, and so on, released evenly through the day (the first hour's worth at once). At most 15,000 click shares per epoch.

Pool mine

• Opens when the pool opens. Each share needs a GPU hash and 0.1 HYPE. A 1% fee is kept; of the rest, half buys $SHADE and half pairs with it as liquidity held by the mine contract.
• Reward is fixed when you mine: base + pool bonus × multiplier, paid out second by second over 14 days. Your liquidity comes back after 14 days.
• Multiplier = shares this epoch ÷ pool shares this epoch (starting values 5,000 and 1,000 in epoch 1, then the last epoch's ratio), between 1x and 5x. If the epoch's reserve would run short at 1.25x the current pool share, the bonus eases down; the base is always paid.

Daily limits and referrals

• GPU: 10 shares every 6 hours in epochs 1–2, 8 in epoch 3, 6 in epoch 4, then 2 from epoch 5. Click: 5 a day in epochs 1–2, 4 in epoch 3, 3 in epoch 4, then 1. Pool: 5 a day. Daily limits reset at 00:00 UTC.
• Share your link (?ref=your address). Each wallet you refer adds +1 to your daily GPU, click and pool limits, for good. The new wallet sets you before its first share, and you must have mined already.

$SHADE supply

21,000,000,000 $SHADE. Only DEX liquidity, Treasury and Foundation exist at deploy (4.2B). Mining and the pool mine reserve are created only when someone mines or claims; whatever is never mined is never created. No owner mint, no upgrades.

Seed and pool opening

• The seed opens with mining: up to 1 HYPE per wallet, 25 HYPE in total. The first 10 minutes are for the early list.
• Seeders always get 25% more $SHADE per HYPE than the pool's opening price, however much is seeded: 105,000,000 per HYPE at a full 25 HYPE (the pool opens at 84,000,000), more per HYPE if the pool opens smaller. 25% when the pool opens, the rest over 14 days. A full 1 HYPE seed also gets a free soul (claim it within 24 hours).
• At 25 HYPE, or after 72 hours with at least 5, anyone can open the pool: 2.1B $SHADE plus all seed HYPE plus the fees collected during the seed go into a Uniswap V4 pool (official WHYPE). The position is held forever by the pool contract; there is no function to remove it.
• Under 5 HYPE after 72 hours: the seed failed and every seeder can take their HYPE back.

Souls

• 4,600 souls. A GPU or pool share with 4+ extra zero bits beyond the target (about 1 in 16) drops a sealed soul.
• Claim it within 24 hours for 0.025 HYPE (seed souls are free), or it fades and goes back into the pool.
• Claiming mints the NFT straight to your wallet. Which of the 4,600 souls you get is drawn at random from the ones still left, so every soul (18 Mythic, 55 Legendary, 216 Epic, 874 Rare, 1,150 Uncommon, 2,287 Common) is minted exactly once. See its art and rarity on OpenSea.

Trading fee

• The $SHADE pool is on Uniswap V4 with a 2% pool fee on every buy and sell, wherever the trade comes from (this site, the Uniswap app, aggregators). Wallet transfers pay nothing.
• Only the pool contract can add liquidity, so the whole 2% is ours. Anyone can call collect() to send it on: 30% Foundation and 70% Treasury, which fund $SHADE buybacks.

Where fees go

• Mine fees (GPU, click and pool) and soul fees: into the pool fund while the seed runs, then 30% Foundation and 70% Treasury. Fees fund $SHADE buybacks.

What the team can change

• The 2% pool fee is fixed in the Uniswap V4 pool. GPU mine fee (starts at 0%), 0 to 10%. Click mine fee, 0 to 10%. Pool mine fee, 0 to 10%. GPU and click deposit, 0.01 to 0.1 HYPE. Lock times: GPU and click 1 hour to 7 days (12h to start), pool mine 1 to 30 days (14 days to start). Soul open fee, up to 0.1 HYPE. Changes only apply to new shares and trades.
• Pick the DEX router, only until the pool opens. Souls art link and royalty (up to 10%).
• Pause mining for at most 7 days, once every 14 days.
• Nothing else: no minting, no taking deposits, no changing rewards or the halving.

Early list

Everyone can mine from the first second. For the first 24 hours after mining starts, the ~5,800 wallets on the early list earn +25% on every GPU and click share (paid from the pool mine reserve). Seeding is early-list only for the first 10 minutes.
