Hold and it rains ETH on you. Post and get paid by impression.
The Vein is a token with two payment loops on top of it. Hold $VEIN and every 12 hours ETH
lands directly in your wallet, proportional to your share of supply. Post about it on X and
get paid daily by estimated impressions. Both loops are funded by the same $VEIN creator fee
that Pons pays back — nothing external, nothing infinite. No smart contract, no claim button, no admin key.
Every 12 hours we snapshot every $VEIN holder's balance and send ETH directly to
your wallet, proportional to your % of supply. No claim button, ever — it just lands.
As the holder count grows we add automation and redundancy to the sender, never a contract.
Link your X handle by bio code verification. Post with $VEIN or @theveindotfun.
Every day we compute estimated impressions × CPM per verified handle and send ETH
directly to your wallet. Same promise as Rain — always direct, always zero contract.
Pons pays the $VEIN creator 70% of every 1% trade fee — around 0.7% of total volume. We claim that continuously and split it:
40%
Rain
drops every 12h to holders, proportional to supply held
25%
Marketing
daily ETH payouts to wallets that posted about $VEIN on X
20%
Buyback & Burn
continuously buys $VEIN off the market and burns it to 0x…dead — deflationary pressure that benefits every holder
15%
Reserve
keeper gas, snapshot infra, front-end, audit, dev bounties
The split is documented publicly, but not enforced on-chain — the creator fee is claimed to a wallet
that then funds the two contracts. If the split drifts, you can see it drift in real time on
@theveindotfun.
Why this is self-sustaining
Zero owner override
Contracts have no pause, no upgrade, no refund, no privileged withdraw. Read the source. Owner can only drop() new rounds.
Volume feeds every loop
Bigger $VEIN volume → bigger creator fees → bigger rain, bigger yaps, more burns. Bigger yaps → more posts → bigger volume. Feedback loop, not a promise.
Deflation by design
Every week 20% of the fee buys $VEIN off the market and sends it to 0x…dEaD. Supply only shrinks. Every burn tx is announced.
Claims never expire
Miss a rain? It sits on-chain until you claim. Batch every unclaimed round in one transaction. No FOMO cooldown, no vesting.
Nothing outside pays the payouts
Rain, marketing, buyback, reserve — all four legs are funded strictly from what the token earned on Pons. Zero VC, zero treasury unlock, zero emission.

Roadmap · scaling the distribution, never the attack surface
No distribution contract. Ever. Every phase is push-payment from a cold multisig — no claim button to hack, no admin key to leak, no exploit surface. Scale-up is about automation and redundancy, not about handing control to code.
Phase 0 · now
Manual direct payment from the keeper wallet to each holder / verified poster.
Small holder count, high-touch, batch multisend (disperse.app) from a cold multisig. Simple, transparent, verifiable on-chain.
Phase 1 · ~250-500 holders
Same push-payment, but the keeper runs on a cron every 12h so drops never miss even if we're offline. Signing key isolated on a hardened server, spending capped, multisig-controlled top-ups.
Phase 2 · ~1000+ holders
Distributed keepers. Three independent servers run the same cron and cross-sign each drop. Two must agree before the tx sends. Any divergence pauses the drop for human review. Still push-payment, still zero contract.
Phase 3 · maturity
Keeper source + every drop's signed proof pinned on IPFS. theveindotfun.eth resolves the site. No smart contract, no admin key, no ownership to renounce because nothing was ever centralized to begin with. Runs forever.
Honest about what we cannot promise
Bad volume → tiny drops. If nobody trades $VEIN one day, the creator fee is zero and the next rain is zero.
This is the honest read of the model — the loop only works when the token has actual usage.
Snapshot is off-chain and privileged. The keeper wallet computes each round's balances and publishes the root.
A malicious keeper could publish a wrong root. Mitigation: we publish the raw balances JSON with every drop so
anyone can re-run the math and verify. If a round is wrong, we drop a corrected one; the bad round is a public record.
Nothing here is a security. Holding a token that pays you fees from its own trading is not an investment
contract in the sense you should treat like a stock. Buy $VEIN with money you can lose, not with rent.
