$LOUD token

Crypto payments open after graduation: when $LOUD's launch curve sells out and it moves to a public pool with locked liquidity. Until then every plan is paid in dollars.

• 20% off the list price, never combined with the yearly discount (20% off at most).
• +1% swap and network: covers the pool fee, gas and price movement during the swap.
• VAT included: you pay exactly the price shown. EU businesses give their VAT number at checkout.
• Buys 1 to 12 prepaid months or credit packs. Nothing renews on its own; we remind you before a prepaid period ends. Plans that renew automatically stay on card, through Stripe.
• Prices are in dollars. ETH is swapped to $LOUD in the same transaction; the number of tokens is worked out at checkout.

A small, immutable payment contract with no admin keys sends 30% of each crypto payment to be burned, in the same transaction, and 70% to the treasury, a 2-of-3 multisig that sells only what running loudscene costs.

Our share of $LOUD trading fees is split too: 30% buys $LOUD back and burns it every week, with the proof published, and 70% runs loudscene. Once an audited contract is in place, the buyback becomes automatic.

Crypto payments follow the same refund rules as card payments (see Billing and refunds), but only the 70% that reached the treasury can be refunded; the burned 30% is gone. Checkout shows this before you pay.

$LOUD trading fees fund a monthly bonus of up to 2x your videos (2.5x if you pay in crypto).

• Every paid plan counts, on card or in crypto. Free plans and credit packs do not.
• Each payment opens a 30-day cycle; yearly and prepaid plans get one cycle per month.
• Each day's pool is shared across active cycles by the plan's monthly list price, 1.5x when the cycle was paid in crypto.
• A cycle collects at most 100% more videos than the plan includes (150% in crypto): 2x and 2.5x in total.
• The bonus is added as video credits when your plan renews, at most 7 days after the cycle ends. Without a renewal it lapses. Bonus credits last 30 days.
• A refunded or disputed payment cancels its cycle's bonus.

Holding or locking $LOUD gives no videos, plans, money or tokens. Creators can take payouts in $LOUD if they prefer, with nothing extra for choosing it.

The team buys about 5% of the supply when the token is created, announced beforehand. It is locked for 6 months, then released linearly over 12 months, on a public locker. There is no presale.

• A public Proof of Burn page lists every burn with its transaction. Coming at launch.
• A monthly report shows fees by day, the bonus rate, the burns and every treasury sale, with on-chain links. Coming at launch.
• The addresses of the token, the payment contract, the multisig and the team lock will be published at launch, with verified contracts.
