The Founder's Contribution Ledger
Status: Complete
The project's bootstrapping phase, internally designated SEED3, was entirely funded by its founder. This period provided the essential capital that funded the core research, architectural design, and initial foundational development required to transition from a theoretical blueprint to a live, operational system on Ethereum main-net.
To ensure transparent accounting of the founder's capital contribution to this public good, an internal ledger was established. This ledger tracks the founder's investment using non-tradable "SEED3 Units."
Contribution Accounting:
Total SEED3 Units: 1,500.
Capital Per Unit: 1,000 DAI.
Total Founder Contribution: 1,500,000 DAI (or equivalent).
The capital represented by the SEED3 ledger was deployed exclusively to fund the project's initial development. This investment enabled:
Core R&D: The research into monetary theory and architectural design of the DeFi Trident.
Protocol Development: The construction, audit and main-net deployment of the core Settlement Layer (Stage 2) and main-net development of the Capital Foundation Layer (Stage 3).
The SEED3 contribution phase is complete. All capital has been deployed according to its stated objectives, establishing the immutable foundation for all subsequent development.
This ledger stands as a testament to the founder's commitment and the project's initial validation, successfully executing against its earliest roadmap milestones.
