004 // Economics
The reserve
Mint proceeds split three ways: hardware, working capital, and the reserve. The reserve is held as tokenized NVDA exposure and is the part that gives a rig a floor tied to something other than the collection's own market.
A rig's reserve share is fixed at mint and travels with the token. It does not grow because you held longer and it does not shrink because someone else sold.
Why NVDA and not cash
The asset on the shelf is a graphics card, and the thing that most moves what that card is worth is the company that makes it. When new silicon lands, the price of used compute falls and the maker's position generally does not. Holding the reserve in NVDA exposure means the two halves of a rig do not fall together.
That is a hedge, not a guarantee. Both halves can fall at once.
No token
There is no rig token, no points, no season pass, and no governance coin. If one ever launches, it will be announced here and on 006 // VERIFY first. Anything else using this name is not ours.
Numbers
A rig is not a share of stock and not a security offering. Tokenized NVDA exposure tracks price only: no voting rights, no dividend, no claim on NVIDIA Corporation, which is not affiliated with this project and has not endorsed it. The reserve can lose value. Cashback can be zero. Nothing here is investment advice, and we are not licensed to give any.
