The $DNC Documentation

Everything about DNC On Chain — the mission, the tokenomics, how the ecosystem connects, how the DAO governs, and why connecting your wallet is safe. Click any pill to dive in.

Most Web3 projects ship a token and hope the chart does the work. DNC takes the opposite approach: we ship products people actually use — a marketplace, a print-on-demand art platform, NFTs with real perks, and a play-to-earn runner — and route the economic activity from all of them back into a single core token.

The thesis is simple: utility creates demand, demand creates price support, and price support funds the next product. Every page on this site is part of that loop.

  • Hybrid Web2 + Web3. Vendorium lets normal shoppers pay in card or crypto. Artifi delivers physical prints. Kryptos Runner is a real game. Crypto is the rails, not the gimmick.
  • One core token. All revenue paths feed $DNC — buybacks, burns, holder perks, and treasury.
  • Community-owned direction. Kryptos NFT holders steer the DAO: featured drops, vendor partnerships, treasury moves.

Value flow into $DNC

  • Vendorium fees. A share of every marketplace transaction routes to the $DNC treasury for scheduled buybacks.
  • Artifi commissions. Every framed-print sale carries a creator commission and an ecosystem fee that loops back to $DNC.
  • Kryptos drops. Mint and royalty revenue from Kryptos NFT collections funds buybacks, sweepstakes prizes, and burns.
  • Game revenue. Kryptos Runner ad and cosmetics revenue is split between prize pools and $DNC buybacks.

Holder benefits

  • Discounts on Vendorium and Artifi.
  • Early access to NFT drops and limited cosmetics.
  • Sweepstakes multipliers based on holdings.
  • Voting weight inside the DAO (when paired with a Kryptos NFT).

Each product is useful on its own. Stacked together they create a flywheel: users earn in one place and spend in another, while every transaction routes a slice of value back to $DNC.

Vendorium

Multi-vendor marketplace for digital and physical goods. NFT holders unlock discounts. Vendors pay in $DNC or convert at checkout.

Artifi

Turns NFT art into framed prints shipped worldwide. Creators earn lifetime royalties; ecosystem fee funds $DNC buybacks.

Kryptos NFTs

Utility NFTs with DAO trait for governance, sweepstakes entries, and reward multipliers across the ecosystem.

Kryptos Runner

Play-to-earn runner. Points convert directly into Vendorium credit, closing the loop between gameplay and commerce.

The loop in one sentence

Play Runner → earn points → spend on Vendorium → vendor fee funds $DNC buyback → buyback strengthens token → token unlocks Kryptos perks → Kryptos holders vote in the DAO on what ships next.

Who can vote

Any wallet holding a Kryptos NFT with the DAO trait. Your voting power equals the sum of the DAO trait values across every Kryptos NFT in your wallet. There is no staking, no lockup, and no separate governance token — your NFT is the vote.

What gets voted on

  • Featured vendors on Vendorium.
  • Drop calendar for Kryptos and Artifi collections.
  • Artifi creator partnerships and revenue splits.
  • Treasury allocation — buyback cadence, burn schedule, prize pools.
  • Roadmap priorities — which product ships next.

Proposal lifecycle

  1. 1Member drafts a proposal in the DAO.
  2. 2Discussion window — chat, comments, refinements.
  3. 3Voting opens. Each wallet's weight is snapshotted from on-chain NFT data.
  4. 4Proposal closes. Results are tallied transparently and posted.
  5. 5Team executes the outcome and reports back in the next update.

Grab a Kryptos NFT with the DAO trait, then connect your wallet on the DAO page. There's no signup, no email — your wallet is your membership.

How sign-in actually works

  1. Connect

    Your wallet (Phantom, Solflare, Backpack, or WalletConnect) shares only your public address. Nothing private leaves your device.

  2. Sign a one-time message

    You sign a plain-text message like "Sign in to DNC DAO — Nonce: abc123". Message signing does NOT move tokens, does NOT approve contracts, and costs zero SOL.

  3. Server verifies

    We verify the signature with ed25519 against your public address. If it matches, you control that wallet — proven cryptographically without you sending anything.

  4. Read NFTs on-chain

    We query Solana directly for Kryptos NFTs in your wallet. Read-only. Your assets are never touched, transferred, or staked.

What we will NEVER do

  • Ask for your seed phrase or private key.
  • Request a transaction approval (no setAuthority, approve, or transfer).
  • Move, stake, or burn your NFTs or SOL.
  • Charge gas to sign in — message signing is free.
  • Store anything except your public wallet address.

How to verify it yourself

  • Read the wallet popup. It should say "Sign in to DNC DAO — Wallet: … — Nonce: …" — nothing else.
  • If a transaction approval ever appears during sign-in, reject it and report it in DAO chat. Sign-in is always signature-only.
  • On WalletConnect mobile, the request lists exact scopes. Ours requests signMessage only.
  • Disconnecting only clears the local session. Your wallet and NFTs are untouched.

  • Volatility. Token prices can swing dramatically in short windows. Never spend money you can't afford to lose.
  • Utility, not securities. $DNC is a utility token used inside the DNC ecosystem. It is not a share, a yield product, or a guaranteed return.
  • Smart contract risk. Solana, NFT standards, and third-party wallets all carry inherent risk. We use audited, widely-adopted standards but no software is bug-free.
  • Self-custody. You hold your own keys. Lose your seed phrase, lose your assets — we cannot recover wallets.
  • Regulation. Crypto regulation varies by country. It's your responsibility to comply with local laws.
  • Do your own research. Read the contract, check the chart, ask in chat, take your time.
