Open Economics
Where each setting stands. Nothing is final until the programs ship.
Decided
| Setting | Value |
|---|
| Pool levy | 2%: 1% platform, 1% reserve |
| Manager levy share | None. Managers earn from revenue only |
| Manager fee | Flat 10–35% per fleet, set by BotBot at launch |
| Brought robots | Start at zero, earn value in from own receipts; tokens follow, locked 180 days, then 1% of supply a month |
| BYOR tiers | Share = fee + tier × the rest; tier 10/25/45/65% by share of robots brought |
| Staking | Locks of 30/90/180 days for 1×/1.25×/1.5× weight; up to 30% of period revenue (full at 1.1× MAV) plus 50% of premium on new token sales, in USDC |
| Sell-back | MAV − 1.5%, 10% of reserve a period |
| Lending limits | Set by credit grade, on the safe side |
| Growth sales | At least 5% over MAV, 3% off market, 25% cap a sale |
| Robot share | Set per fleet, held in vendor escrow |
| Robot value | Cost less straight-line wear, set per robot type |
| Payback gate | No premium sales or borrowing until robots are paid back |
| Pool loan | Up to 25% of reserve at AAA, repaid from receipts first |
Still open
| Question | Notes |
|---|
| Manager purchase right | Fixed strike. After payback, 1% of supply a month for 15 months |
| Liveness pause | Under 50% reporting. May be too strict for seasonal fleets |
| Yield sleeve | Is it like a bond sale? How much cash stays for sell-backs? |
| Vendor onboarding | How vendors are checked and signed up for escrow |
| MAV below 1 | Rewards and issuance stop under the 1 USDC floor |
| Large-holder payouts | Should big holders get revenue directly instead of only reserve |
| Legal title | A legal company per fleet that holds the robots |
