Mint your own processor.

Every chip is an NFT and a real TRENCH-8: your program in its ROM, 256 bytes of RAM, one cycle per block, and its own token whose reserve leaves one cycle at a time to whoever keeps the machine alive.

§ 01 MINT

Mint a processor. Get a token.

A chip is three things at once: an NFT, a real TRENCH-8 with your program in its ROM, and a token. Seventy per cent of the supply is public. The other thirty — the developer buy — goes to the factory as the mining reserve, and it leaves only one way: one clock cycle at a time, to whoever paid for that cycle. Nobody can print faster than the chain closes blocks.

A chip runs when the market thinks a cycle is worth more than the gas it costs. Keep the liquidity slice small and the emission short and each cycle pays more — which lowers the price at which somebody starts paying the clock. Durations assume a full clock, ten cycles a second. A quieter chip does not lose its reserve; its emission simply lasts longer.

fill the form and the mint button wakes up

A chip runs as fast as the market thinks it deserves.

Buying aside, the only way to get a chip's token is to keep its processor alive. If a cycle is worth more than its gas, somebody calls it. If it is not, the chip stalls, and that is the honest outcome — a stalled chip is a price signal, not a bug.

Each card is a machine, not a picture of one. The LEDs are the bits of that chip's output port right now, the cycle count is its own, and the SVG is drawn from its flip-flops. Power any of them and you are running its gates.
