One view of the protocol

Read system state from left to right: status, Core, wallet reserve, then Orbit.

01

SYSTEM STATUS

Read the current Core display state, cycle timing, Charge, and completed Pulse totals.

02

THE CORE

See the Core's MASS share and the active wallets represented around it.

03

MASS RESERVE

Review your effective MASS balance, qualification state, automatically accrued reflections, and finalized ETH rewards.

04

YOUR ORBIT

Inspect your collection and manage each NFT through its Orbit state.

02 / ECONOMY

MASS feeds the Core

CORE / PERMANENT MASSACTIVE GRAVITY DEFINES PULSE SHARE
TESTED ACCOUNTING

What happens on a taxable trade

5%

Total trade tax

Only transfers classified by the protocol as a buy or sell use the reference tax. Wallet transfers and liquidity operations are not automatically treated as trades.

2.5%

Direct Core contribution

Half of the tax moves directly into the permanent Core balance.

2.5%

Qualified-holder pool

The other half is indexed across qualified ordinary holders. Their accrued MASS is visible immediately and settles automatically on their next buy, sell, or transfer. On the authorized v4 path, the router snapshots the exact Core share and sends its ETH equivalent directly to Pulse Charge before a buy or after a sell.

PULSE

Gravity allocation

Finalized Charge is divided in proportion to each wallet's Active Gravity. If no Gravity is active, the Charge carries into the next cycle.

DISPLAY NOTE · Green is the PULSAR protocol color. It is a visual convention, not a claim about a pulsar's literal visible color.

04 / ORBIT

Only Active NFTs generate Gravity

View NFTs is read-only. Orbit opens the actions that move an NFT through the custody lifecycle.

  1. 01

    UNSTAKED

    The NFT remains in the wallet and contributes no Gravity.

  2. 02

    CHARGING

    The NFT is in Orbit custody. During Active mode it must remain Charging through one complete Pulse cycle.

  3. 03

    ACTIVE

    The NFT contributes its class Gravity to the next Pulse.

  4. 04

    COOLDOWN

    Leaving Orbit stops active Gravity and begins the 24-hour withdrawal delay.

  5. 05

    WITHDRAWN

    The cooldown is complete and custody has returned to the wallet.

Leaving Orbit removes the position from unfinished-cycle eligibility. Rewards finalized by earlier Pulses remain claimable.

05 / PROTOCOL LIFECYCLE

From Dormant Core to recurring Pulses

The deployed contracts, not the website, determine every boundary from chain timestamps and finalized randomness. Genesis has no manual activation button. It opens automatically at the configured timestamp and lasts exactly 24 hours.

  1. 01

    PRE-GENESIS

    The protocol waits for the published genesisStart timestamp. Trading, minting, and Orbit entry remain closed. The Core is Dormant.

  2. 02

    GENESIS / 24 HOURS

    Genesis starts automatically when chain time reaches genesisStart. MASS trading, pack minting, and Genesis Orbit entry open for exactly 24 hours.

  3. 03

    REVEAL RESOLUTION

    After Genesis ends, the Genesis Pulse waits for every paid Genesis reveal to fulfill or be refunded after its 24-hour timeout. New purchases cannot become Genesis eligible.

  4. 04

    GENESIS PULSE

    After eligible reveal requests resolve under the queue rules, the Genesis Pulse finalizes eligible Gravity and closes the one-time Genesis Charge period.

  5. 05

    ACCRETING / HOURS 0-20

    The Active cycle accumulates Charge. A normal Pulse cannot fire during this interval.

  6. 06

    UNSTABLE / HOURS 20-30

    The Core becomes unstable. Quiver chooses a verifiable target inside this window. If randomness is unavailable, the cycle-end fallback preserves liveness.

  7. 07

    PULSE

    Charge is finalized against eligible Active Gravity. If no Gravity is eligible, Charge carries into the next cycle.

  8. 08

    AFTERGLOW

    The completed Pulse is presented while the next Active cycle begins from the actual Pulse timestamp.

GENESIS WINDOW24 hours beginning at genesisStart. This determines purchase and staking eligibility.

REVEAL TIMEOUTEach unresolved paid request becomes refundable 24 hours after it was submitted. Genesis closes only after the pending queue reaches zero.

ORBIT COOLDOWNA separate 24 hours beginning when an NFT leaves Orbit. It controls withdrawal only.

During Active mode, a newly entered NFT must complete one full Pulse cycle before its Gravity becomes eligible. Leaving removes unfinished-cycle eligibility immediately.

06 / CORE DISPLAY

How to read the Core animation

  1. 01

    DORMANT

    The Core is waiting for protocol activity.

  2. 02

    CHARGING

    Charge is being prepared for the active cycle.

  3. 03

    ACCRETING

    The Core is growing and the current cycle is active.

  4. 04

    UNSTABLE

    The Core turns red-dominant as the Pulse window approaches, with sparse green fractures still visible.

  5. 05

    PULSE

    The green emission rises from low to high intensity during settlement.

  6. 06

    AFTERGLOW

    The completed Pulse remains visible while the next cycle begins.

ESTIMATES AND FINAL VALUES

Orbit rewards shown before a Pulse are estimates. Claimable balances are final only after settlement is confirmed. Live protocol parameters and addresses must always come from the connected deployment, not from screenshots or example values.
