# Treasury & Buybacks

## The Treasury Wallet

Snake OS's treasury is a single, publicly-labeled Solana wallet. The address will be published on launch day in:

* The Snake OS app footer
* The Snake OS X bio
* The Snake OS GitBook (this page, updated)

You can verify on-chain at any time. We treat the treasury as a public artifact — transparency is the only credible position for a fair-launch project.

## Initial Funding

The treasury starts empty. At token launch hour:

1. We send 10–30 SOL (founder personal funds, no investor capital) into the treasury wallet
2. The treasury immediately uses that SOL to buy 5–10% of the bonding curve
3. Now the treasury holds \~50–100M the token + \~5–25 SOL leftover

## Ongoing Funding

The treasury grows from app revenue:

* Every settled PvP match contributes 5% in settle fees + 5% claim fees = \~9.75% of combined pot
* Every market purchase contributes 100% of the purchase price (we don't take an upfront cut, but the SOL sits in treasury)

This SOL is then used for buybacks (see below) and operations.

## Weekly Buyback Operation

Every \~7 days (post-launch), the treasury executes:

1. Buy the token from PumpSwap with the week's accumulated SOL
2. Distribute the purchased the token per the three reward channels (PvP tournaments, holder dividends, ops)
3. Publish the buyback TX hashes publicly (X post + Snake OS app)

This creates predictable, sustained buying pressure proportional to product usage. **The more people use the app, the bigger the buybacks, the more the token flows back to participants.** Pure flywheel.

## Buyback Transparency

Every buyback TX is on-chain. You can verify:

* The exact SOL spent
* The exact the token bought
* The exact distribution to each reward bucket
* The treasury wallet's running balance

We commit to publishing a weekly buyback summary post-launch so you don't have to scan TXs manually.

## What the Treasury Won't Do

* ❌ Sell the token for personal gain
* ❌ Move funds to unlabeled wallets
* ❌ Pay "team members" (there's no team allocation; founder owns 0% beyond personal curve buys)
* ❌ Sponsor KOL deals with the token (post-launch KOL rewards come from a tiny per-post performance-based budget, never bulk allocations)
* ❌ "Stealth migrate" to a different chain

If any of these change, it will be publicly announced + governance-voted (post-governance launch).
