## 1. Abstract

Primacy Vault turns lived human judgment — decisions, ethics, negotiation, computer-use, physical scenes, customer ops — into licensable modules. **Fifteen jobs, gated by plan.** Robotics and AI buyers pay **USDC on Circle Arc only**. Sellers keep **85%** of USDC earned. The remaining 15% is 7% treasury + marketing, 5% buyback-burn, and 3% protocol-owned liquidity.

**$PMCY is not a wage token.** It is a deflationary access token on Circle Arc Network ([arc.io](https://www.arc.io)). Holders lock or burn it to list a module, open raw drawers, run extra SuperGrok, and boost USDC royalties in the Staking Portal. Earnings never emit $PMCY. Inflation is zero. Supply only falls.

SuperGrok 4.5 is the in-product runtime. Public Grok Bots cannot intercept a SOW, write palace triples, or enforce review-before-send. Humans remain the last click.

On Arc, SuperGrok agents are first-class economic participants: onchain identity (**ERC-8004**), programmable job escrow (**ERC-8183**), and per-call nanopayments (**x402**). See [Agentic Economy](https://docs.arc.io/build/agentic-economy#agentic-economy).

## 2. Why Arc Network

Arc is Circle’s Layer 1 for stablecoin-native settlement. Public mainnet opened 16 September 2026.

| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Network | Circle Arc Network |
| Docs | https://docs.arc.io |
| Agentic economy | https://docs.arc.io/build/agentic-economy |
| Explorer | https://explorer.arc.io |
| Chain ID | 5042 (`0x13b2`) |
| Gas | USDC (~$0.001 design target per ERC-20 transfer) |
| Native USDC | `0x3600000000000000000000000000000000000000` |
| Finality | Sub-second, deterministic, Malachite BFT |
| Block time | ~0.5s |
| Execution | EVM (Reth / Osaka) |
| Validators | Permissioned institutional set (Circle, BlackRock, DTCC, Visa, Mastercard, ICE, Galaxy, and peers) |

**Arc is the only chain.** USDC gas, sub-second finality, institutional validators. Settle every vault write, listing bond, royalty, SuperGrok receipt, and the $PMCY/USDC POL pool on Arc. Primacy does not dual-list, bridge, or launch on a second L1.

### Arc primitives Primacy actually uses

| Arc primitive | Primacy mapping |
|---|---|
| [Agentic Economy](https://docs.arc.io/build/agentic-economy#agentic-economy) | SuperGrok bots are economic actors, not chat widgets |
| [ERC-8004](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-8004) identity + reputation | Each SuperGrok role registers onchain. Reputation is written by a *different* wallet than the owner |
| [ERC-8183](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-8183) job lifecycle | A data license *is* a job: create → fund USDC escrow → submit deliverable hash → human evaluator completes → 85/7/5/3 of USDC earned |
| [x402 nanopayments](https://docs.arc.io/build/sample-apps/arc-nanopayments) | Extra SuperGrok runs and raw-drawer unlocks pay per call |
| [P2P Payments](https://docs.arc.io/build/payments) | Seller royalties land peer-to-peer in USDC |

## 3. Token Overview

- Ticker: **$PMCY**
- Standard: ERC-20
- Supply: **1,000,000,000** (fixed)
- Inflation: **Zero**. No mint after genesis. No rebase. No owner mint.
- Home: Circle Arc only.
- Features: `burnWithSource()`, cumulative burn tracking.

$PMCY is the **access and scarcity layer**. USDC is the **wage and settlement layer**.

---

## 4. Token Distribution (1B genesis)

These percentages are **supply allocation**, not the USDC-earned split. See §5 for GMV.

| Bucket | % | Tokens | Rule |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Seller — deploy the platform** | **53%** | **530M** | Earned by vault contributors as venues go live. How the platform is deployed. Not an airdrop. Locked until the contributor’s venue hits readiness. |
| **Liquidity (POL)** | **20%** | **200M** | Protocol-owned $PMCY/USDC on Arc. |
| **Treasury + marketing** | **12%** | **120M** | Ops, SuperGrok quota, legal, listings, and marketing. Multisig. |
| **Dev team** | **10%** | **100M** | 3-year vest, 1-year cliff. No dump at TGE. |
| **Buyback & burn reserve** | **5%** | **50M** | Protocol-owned. Not circulating. Pairs with the 5% GMV USDC buyback. |

---

## 5. Revenue model — GMV 85 / 7 / 5 / 3

This is **what happens to every USDC earned** on a completed license, independent of genesis allocation.

Worked example: buyer pays **100 USDC** on Arc (gas also USDC, design target ~$0.001).

1. ERC-8183 job funds escrow. Human evaluator completes. No auto-release.
2. **85 USDC** → seller Arc wallet. Dollars. No $PMCY dump.
3. **7 USDC** → treasury + marketing (ops, SuperGrok quota, legal, buyer acquisition).
4. **5 USDC** → market-buys $PMCY on the Arc pool and burns it (`0x000…dead`).
5. **3 USDC** → protocol-owned liquidity top-up (Arc $PMCY/USDC pool).

Plan tiers gate SuperGrok quota, jobs, volume, and wallet addresses (Starter 1 · Pro 2 · Elite 4). They do **not** change the 85% seller split.

Plan billing is a **third ledger**: Starter 17 · Pro 35 · Elite 99 USDC / 30 days. 90% treasury / 10% dev. Two native transfers. No Stripe.

## 6. What $PMCY is for (token use on the platform)

Hold $PMCY because the product **requires** it. Never because it is the paycheck.

| Action | $PMCY | USDC | Arc primitive |
|---|---|---|---|
| License a module (buyer → seller) | — | 85% of USDC earned to seller | ERC-8183 job + P2P USDC |
| Protocol take on that license | 5% of GMV burned | 7% + 5% + 3% of USDC earned | RevenueRouter |
| List a venue module | Lock listing bond | — | Escrow lock |
| Open raw drawer / ethics packet | Burn 25–200 | or x402 nanopayment | x402 or burn |
| Extra SuperGrok run | Burn 8–40 | or x402 nanopayment | x402 + ERC-8004 agent |
| Free monthly Auditor / Override | 0 (quota) | gas only | ERC-8004 agent call |
| Starter → Pro → Elite | Burn 100 / 500 / 1,000 | subscription USDC 90/10 | burnWithSource |
| Staking Portal — boost royalties | Lock 1k/30d, 5k/90d, 10k/180d | +5 / +10 / +15% from POL+treasury; seller cap 90% | time-weighted lock · `/stake` |

---

## 7. Demand & burn sinks

$PMCY is held because the product requires it — listing, depth, SuperGrok, stake. It is never paid out as salary. Six sinks:

| Sink | Amount | Rule |
|---|---|---|
| GMV buyback-burn | 5% of GMV | Every USDC license market-buys $PMCY on the Arc pool and sends it to `0x000…dead` in the same transaction. |
| Seller listing bond | Lock, not mint | Lock $PMCY for the listing term. Unlock on delist. Inventory is a float sink. |
| Buyer access burn | 25–200 / unlock | AAAK previews stay free. Opening raw drawers, ethics packets, or a data-fit call burns $PMCY or pays x402. |
| SuperGrok quota burn | 8–40 / run | Free monthly Auditor/Override. Extra Outreach, Distill, and Extract burn $PMCY or settle as x402. |
| Tier upgrade burn | 100–1,000 | Starter → Pro → Elite. Upgrade is a sink, not a coupon. Monthly plan USDC is a different ledger. |
| Outreach campaign burn | 10 / campaign | After two free SuperGrok drafts per month, each extra pack burns 10 $PMCY. You still send. |

---

## 8. Time-weighted stake

No token emissions. Yield is extra USDC from buyers. Amount **and** duration both required. Use the in-app **Staking Portal** (`/stake`). Boost is paid from POL + treasury — the 5% burn never moves. Seller share cannot exceed 90% of GMV (Gold hits the cap). Unstake is refused until the lock ends. Preview wallets cannot stake into a Complete.

| Tier | Amount | Lock | USDC royalty boost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bronze | 1,000 $PMCY | 30 days | +5% |
| Silver | 5,000 $PMCY | 90 days | +10% |
| Gold | 10,000 $PMCY | 180 days | +15% |

---

## 9. Protocol-owned liquidity

20% of supply (200M) is locked as POL on the Arc $PMCY/USDC pool. 3% of every USDC earned tops that pool. Liquidity is protocol-owned — not mercenary LPs.

---

## 10. Jobs agentic companies buy

Plans do not change the 85% seller split. They gate which jobs you can record and list. Higher plans include every lower-plan job. These are modules agentic companies actually purchase — preference pairs, computer-use traces, evals, exception playbooks — not generic image labels.

Modeled monthly USDC ranges are illustrations, not promises.

### Starter (4 jobs — included on every plan)

| Job | USDC earned (modeled) | What buyers pay for |
|---|---|---|
| Decision Licensing | $300–$600/mo | Decision-making patterns for AI/robot training |
| Negotiation Templates | $200–$500/mo | Proven negotiation strategies extracted from lived work |
| Preference Ranking | $250–$550/mo | Pairwise agent-trajectory ranks with written rationale (RLHF / reward models) |
| Exception Playbooks | $250–$600/mo | When an agent must stop and ask a human |

### Pro (6 jobs — includes every Starter job)

| Job | USDC earned (modeled) | What buyers pay for |
|---|---|---|
| Cognitive Consulting | $500–$1,200/mo | Expert reasoning traces for hard cognitive work |

| Computer-Use Traces | $600–$1,400/mo | Screen-level human computer-use for agent training |
| Agent Evals | $500–$1,200/mo | Graded agent outputs with a written score rubric |
| Physical Judgment | $500–$1,300/mo | Scene-level physical / robotics judgment |
| Customer Ops Traces | $400–$1,000/mo | Real customer-ops resolutions agents cannot fake |

### Elite (5 jobs — includes every Starter and Pro job)

| Job | USDC earned (modeled) | What buyers pay for |
|---|---|---|
| Training Data Bundles | $800–$2,000/mo | Bulk multi-venue packages |
| Policy Stress Traces | $900–$2,200/mo | Red-team / policy-stress cases |
| Multi-Agent Handoff | $1,200–$3,000/mo | Role-to-role handoff protocols |

## 11. SuperGrok and Human architecture

SuperGrok is powered by you, sovereign Human architecture.

- **Wings** = jobs / venues
- **Rooms** = topics
- **Halls** = Facts, Events, Discoveries, Preferences, Advice
- **Tunnels** = cross-domain links (~3.2× pricing)
- **Layers** L0–L1 always load; L2–L3 on demand

In-product bots: Auditor, Override, Resilience, Monetizer, Outreach, Palace Distiller. Each is an **ERC-8004** agent. The shadow loop stays Auditor → Override on FLAG/BLOCK. You dispatch every call. Public Grok Bots cannot intercept an in-app SOW, write triples, or enforce review-before-send.

---

## 12. Smart contracts

- **PrimacyToken.sol** — ERC-20, 1B fixed, `burnWithSource()`, Circle Arc.
- **PrimacyRevenueRouter.sol** — 85/7/5/3 of USDC earned, Arc treasury wallet, buyback-burn + POL, marketing slice inside the 7%.
- **ERC-8004 registries** (Arc) — Identity / Reputation / Validation for SuperGrok roles. Reputation is written by a validator wallet that is not the owner.
- **ERC-8183 job contract** (Arc) — create / fund / submit / complete for each license. Escrow releases only after human evaluation.

---

## 13. Platform workflow (end-to-end)

Job Complete is gated: challenge code from the letter, data-fit, terms, hashed invoice, SHA-256 deliverable, injected Arc wallet. Preview wallets cannot Complete. Amount is taken from the job. A 48-hour dispute window can reverse the in-app ledger. Security protocol 1.1.0.

### A. First session (~20 minutes)

1. Open Primacy Vault. Tap **Forge Your Primacy**.
2. Choose Starter 17 USDC/mo (7 days free, 1 wallet) / Pro 35 (2 wallets) / Elite 99 (4 wallets). Paid native USDC on Arc, 90% treasury / 10% dev. On-chain receipt activates the plan. All plans keep 85% of GMV. Tiers also gate which of the 15 jobs you can list.
3. Create an account (email + password, **10+ characters**, PBKDF2-hashed).
4. Set profile (name, industry, expertise) — this seeds Layer L0.
5. Enter Dashboard. Use the first-week list.
6. **Data Vault → Decision Licensing or Preference Ranking (Starter jobs) → first prompt.** Write context, stakes, reasoning. Submit.
7. Run **Extract**. SuperGrok writes triples. You approve. Nothing auto-publishes.
8. Open **Human Architecture**. Confirm Room, Hall, triples.
9. Open **SuperGrok Agents → Auditor → Dispatch**. If FLAG/BLOCK, run **Override**.
10. Open the **Staking Portal** (`/stake`). Connect an Arc address. Lock 1,000 $PMCY / 30d (+5%), 5,000 / 90d (+10%), or 10,000 / 180d (+15%). Amount and lock both required. Unstake is refused until unlock.
11. Open **Outreach OS**. SuperGrok drafts. Auditor inspects. You send from your mail app with a challenge code. A verified reply plus data-fit, terms, and invoice open an ERC-8183 job — 85% USDC lands on your injected Arc wallet when you complete it. Preview wallets cannot Complete.

### B. Build a listable module (days, not one dump)

1. 15–30 minutes of vault exercises on unique days, on jobs your plan allows.
2. Run the shadow loop each session.
3. Start a second and third job so Tunnels form.
4. When the job unlocks, lock a **listing bond** in $PMCY.

### C. A buyer licenses the module (the money path)

1. Buyer finds the AAAK preview (free). Going deeper burns $PMCY or pays an x402 challenge.
2. Buyer checks out in native USDC on Arc.
3. Router opens an **ERC-8183 job**: buyer = client, seller = provider, Primacy human review = evaluator.
4. Buyer **funds escrow** in USDC. Job state → Funded.
5. Seller submits the SHA-256 deliverable hash. Job state → Submitted.
6. Evaluator completes or refunds. No auto-complete. Preview wallets cannot Complete.
7. On complete, RevenueRouter splits **85 / 7 / 5 / 3** of USDC earned. Seller USDC arrives in under a second. Amount is taken from the job, not typed at Complete.
8. 5% GMV buyback-burns $PMCY. Circulating supply falls. A 48-hour dispute window can reverse the in-app ledger.

### D. Outreach OS (the demand engine)

1. Name a real buyer and enter a real contact email. Primacy never invents inboxes.
2. SuperGrok drafts from palace triples only — no fake scores. Two free drafts / month; extra packs burn 10 $PMCY. A challenge code is appended.
3. Auditor PASS (or acknowledged FLAG). BLOCK cannot send.
4. You copy or open your mail app. Mark sent only after you send. SuperGrok does not dispatch.
5. Buyer reply must include the challenge code. Then log the 20-minute data-fit call, acknowledge experimental license terms, and hash a USDC invoice (10–15,000). These three jobs gate ERC-8183.
6. ERC-8183: create → record buyer funding → submit SHA-256 module hash → Complete from an injected Arc wallet. 3 Completes/day, $50k ledger cap until Arc escrow is live.
7. Router pays 85 / 7 / 5 / 3 of USDC earned to the active Arc wallet. Evaluator (not the owner) writes ERC-8004 reputation.

### E. SuperGrok as an Arc agent

1. Each bot is registered under ERC-8004.
2. A dispatch is user-initiated and spend-capped.
3. In-quota Auditor/Override: no $PMCY burn, USDC gas only.
4. Extra Outreach / Distill / Extract: $PMCY burn **or** x402 nanopayment.
5. Reputation events are written by the validator wallet, not the agent owner.
6. Review-before-send still gates email and job completion.

## 14. Risk factors

- Smart contracts unaudited until a named firm publishes.
- Arc mainnet recency (opened 16 Sep 2026); validator set is permissioned. RPC incidents can delay USDC settlement.
- ERC-8004 / ERC-8183 are new standards; reference implementations can change.
- POL is finite; a single-chain Arc pool does not guarantee depth on day one.
- Regulatory treatment of data licensing and token access varies by jurisdiction.
- Burns track GMV. Thin licenses mean thin deflation.
