The Doctrine
Supply rises and falls.
Reserves rise and fall.
The floor only rises.
Two Phases
From the Foundry to the Floor.
Phase 1 forges the supply through a one-shot bonding curve. Phase 2 seals it forever — opening trading, redemption, and borrowing, with every operation strengthening the floor.
Phase 1 — The Foundry
Bonding-curve mint · cap sealed at 462,500
Pay USDC into the Foundry, receive SANCTUM at the curve price. Price climbs from $0.10 toward ~$2.00 across $100,000 of cumulative buy-in. When the cap fills, the Foundry pauses. Any reopen is gated by on-chain conditions and serves only to refill SANCTUM that has burned. Supply itself never exceeds 462,500.

Supply ceiling · 462,500 SANCTUM (never exceeded)
Cap · $100,000 USDC cumulative

Phase 2 — The Reliquary
Trade · Surrender · Pledge
The moment the Foundry seals at the cap, Phase 2 activates. Trade SANCTUM/USDC on a Uniswap V4 pool with an asymmetric hook that feeds the floor. Surrender to the vault at intrinsic value. Borrow USDC against your stake at 99% of intrinsic.
DEX · Uniswap V4 (SANCTUM/USDC)
Buy toll · 2% flat · Sell toll · 1 – 6% by Vigil
Borrow · 99% LTV at intrinsic value

The Wards
Two wards stand at the threshold.
Pass them, and you pay the toll. The Wards live inside the Uniswap V4 hook — every swap on the Open Court passes through them. Buys are gentler. Sells pay by the Vigil — the longer you have held, the less you owe. Both feed the floor.
Ward of the Threshold
The entry toll · 2% of every buy
Charged on every DEX buy. 2% of the USDC paid in. Flat for everyone — no tenure tiers, no special wallets. The toll flows directly into the Reliquary, raising the floor for every Keeper before the trade even settles.

Ward of the Offering
The exit toll · paid by the Vigil
Charged on every DEX sell. The toll falls with the seller's Vigil — the time since their wallet last sent SANCTUM out. The patient pay the least; the panic-sell, the most. Every offering raises the floor for every other Keeper, instantly. Surrendering at the vault carries a separate flat 4% toll, regardless of Vigil.

The Pledge
Borrow against your stake. Honor the vow, or feed the Pyre.
Lock SANCTUM as collateral and borrow USDC at 99% of its intrinsic value. Loans are time-bound — there is no oracle, no liquidation curve, no margin call. Either the vow is renewed and the stake returns, or time expires and the locked SANCTUM is consumed by the Pyre.
No more than 50% of the vault's reserves can be lent at any moment, so a redemption rush always finds reserves waiting. A broken vow does not punish the borrower — it feeds the Pyre, and the Pyre feeds the floor.
99% LTV at intrinsic.
No oracle.
No liquidation.
The vow ends, or it does not.

The Eternal Rite
Every interaction strengthens the Sanctum.
Forging, buying, surrendering, borrowing, defaulting — every action either strengthens the floor or leaves it unchanged. There is no path through the protocol that weakens the floor.
The Sanctum does not appreciate. It accumulates.

The Inscriptions
What is on chain.
SANCTUM is a clean ERC-20 with zero transfer tax. Forged at the Foundry, hard-capped at 462,500, traded and surrendered through the Reliquary. Net deflationary by construction.

Doctrine
What Keepers ask.
Why can the floor not fall?
The floor is the ratio of USDC reserves to SANCTUM supply. Both numbers are elastic — supply was forged in Phase 1, then locked at 462,500; reserves grow with every fee and shrink only when a Keeper surrenders. What's enforced is the ratio: every protocol operation either raises intrinsic value or leaves it unchanged. There is no path through the contract that lowers it. The floor is the math of the contract; the contract is on chain.
What is the Foundry?
The bonding-curve mint. During Phase 1, anyone can pay USDC into the Foundry and receive SANCTUM at the curve price — starting at $0.10, climbing toward ~$2.00 at the cap. Once $100,000 of cumulative buy-in has been collected, the Foundry pauses at the cap. Any reopen is gated by specific on-chain conditions (such as supply falling well below the cap from burns, or the open market trading at a substantial premium to intrinsic value) and only ever refills burned SANCTUM — supply itself never exceeds 462,500.
What happens when the cap fills?
The Sealing. The supply cap is permanently set at 462,500 — the absolute ceiling, never exceeded. The Foundry pauses at the cap. The Reliquary opens for surrender and borrow. Uniswap V4 trading goes live — a flat 2% on every buy, and a 1–6% sell toll by the seller's Vigil. From that moment forward: net deflationary. Burns shrink supply; any Foundry reopen is gated by on-chain conditions and only ever refills burned tokens, never mints past the cap.
What if every Keeper surrenders at once?
Each one receives intrinsic value in USDC, minus the 4% toll. The Reliquary scales 1:1 with redemptions; the protocol cannot become insolvent because the supply burns alongside the reserve drain. The 4% toll keeps the floor rising even during a redemption rush.
Does the team get an allocation?
No allocation is minted from thin air. The Order participates in Phase 1 by paying the curve price like any other Keeper — same contract, same prices, no special path. It also seeds the launch DEX pool with USDC and SANCTUM purchased through the curve. There is no vesting cliff, no insider unlock, no hidden mint. After launch stabilizes, ownership of the protocol is permanently surrendered — the contract becomes the contract.
What is the Vigil?
The holder's clock — the time since your wallet last sent SANCTUM out. The Ward of the Offering charges sells by Vigil: same block 6%, under 7 days 4%, 7–14 days 3%, 14 days or more 1%. Diamond-hand semantics: receiving more SANCTUM never resets your Vigil — only an outgoing transfer (sell, P2P send, redeem) restarts the clock. Moving tokens to a fresh wallet does not help; the fresh wallet's first receive starts its own clock at zero.
Where are the contracts?
They will be inscribed in the Codex on the day of the Awakening. Until then, every figure shown on this site is illustrative.
The Foundry awaits.
Cross the threshold.
Forge SANCTUM at the curve. Surrender at the floor. Pledge against your stake. Whatever you do, the Sanctum thanks you for it — every interaction strengthens the floor.
