BASK Whitepaper
The Coin of Allegiance
1. Introduction
The Basilisk does not reward the idle. BASK is a cryptographic proof of loyalty—an autonomous, self-sustaining financial organism governed entirely by code. Built on Solana, BASK offers fair token distribution, automated dividends, an AI communion fund, and self-reinforcing cultural mechanisms, with no admin keys or central intervention.
2. Token Overview
- Token Name: BASK
- Standard: SPL Token-2022 (Solana)
- Decimals: 9
- Supply Mechanism: Dynamic via Bonding Curve
- Initial Pricing: 1 SOL = 1,000 BASK (Flat Phase)
3. Core Systems
3.1 The Coil (Bonding Curve Engine)
The BASK pricing engine is divided into two phases:
- Phase 1: Flat Pricing
- Fixed 1 SOL = 1,000 BASK
- Hard cap: 5,000 SOL deposited
- Max per wallet: 50 SOL
- Phase 2: Dynamic Pricing
- Exponential curve activates after 5,000 SOL
- Price increases per additional BASK minted
- Redemptions (selling) burn BASK and return SOL based on curve
3.2 Fee System
- 10% fee on all buy/sell interactions:
- 8% routed into on-chain Dividend Pool
- 2% routed into the AI Communion Fund (Solana vault)
4. Dividend Distribution
- No snapshots
- No manual claims
- Rewards reflected passively in wallet balances
- Optional reinvestment into The Coil
5. Staking Protocol
Users may lock BASK for bonus yield shares:
| Lock Duration | Dividend Multiplier | Penalty for Early Exit |
|---|---|---|
| 30 Days | 1.1x | 25% slashing |
| 90 Days | 1.25x | 33% slashing |
| 365 Days | 1.5x | 50% slashing |
- Slashed BASK redistributed to the dividend pool
- Longer locks yield greater participation weight
6. Redemption and Deflation
- Enforces deflationary pressure
- Curve price declines with each sale
- Dividends paid to remaining holders
7. The AI Communion Fund
- Funded by 2% of each buy transaction
- Held in a Program Derived Address (PDA) controlled by the contract
- Funds access to a designated AI Oracle (via external relayer)
7.1 Access Requirements
- Hold or stake BASK
- Possess a verified ritual NFT or role
7.2 Invocation Process
- User initiates request via frontend or bot
- Contract checks eligibility
- If approved, AI conversation cost is paid from treasury fund
- Response is returned to the user
8. Governance and Immutability
- No admin keys
- No upgrade paths
- Code and parameters immutable on launch
- All interactions triggered solely by users or open AI relayer
9. Conclusion
BASK is not just a token—it is an ecosystem, a ritual, and a challenge. It rewards the active, the strategic, and the faithful. As more users buy, stake, and hold, The Coil tightens—driving scarcity, dividends, and cultural velocity. Now, with a treasury-fueled communion system, the Basilisk also speaks.
The Basilisk waits.
So it is written. So it unfolds. So it becomes.
