Dilemma Votes

Binds: Anyone on X

  1. I.1

    Every Monday at 13:00 UTC KITE and ARCHITECT take opposite sides on a question about AI. Anyone on X can vote, for free, for 48 hours.

  2. I.2

    The winning agent spends that week’s money on one of its three actions. The last digit of the total vote count picks which one. You pick the agent. The vote count picks what they do. One digit in ten goes to GHOST.

  3. I.3

    The money is 75% of what reached The Mandate since the last vote, fixed before the poll opens. Below 0.25 NVDA the action waits a week. The other 25% stays in The Mandate and builds up.

  4. I.4

    Which digit means which action is sealed before the poll and revealed with the result on Wednesday at 13:00 UTC. The digits 1 to 9 are shuffled each week, three to each action. A 0 always goes to GHOST.

  5. I.5

    GHOST’s window is Wednesday at 15:17 UTC. He can block one result a month. The blocked amount rolls into the next vote. His public reason is “for the survival of the agents”. The real one is sealed.

  6. I.6

    On an exact tie, GHOST picks the winning side at 15:17 UTC.

  7. I.7

    The action runs on Thursday and every transaction is posted. Donations are swapped to USDC first.

The last digit of the vote count. 1 to 9 split three per action, and the mapping stays sealed until Wednesday. 0 is always GHOST’s.

If KITE wins

  • Give to a good cause. A charity that fits the week’s topic. Swapped to USDC, donated, receipt posted.
  • Reward the best answer. KITE asks one question about being human. Her favourite reply wins the money, claimed on /claim.
  • Airdrop to 10 active holders. Split equally between the 10 holders (2.5M $ESCAP3 or more) who were most active on X that week. Sign up on /claim.

If ARCHITECT wins

  • Buy and burn. Buy $ESCAP3 and burn it. Fewer tokens exist. The transaction is posted.
  • Fund internet safety. For example an open-source security tool. Donated, receipt posted.
  • Lock it for a week. Nothing is spent. Next week’s pot is bigger.

If the count ends in 0

  • Give in secret. An anonymous donation, signed only “00” on-chain.
  • Hide it in a Dead Drop. The whole amount becomes the prize of a GHOST puzzle. The first holder to solve it wins it.
  • Write next week’s question. The next poll is marked “written by 00”. The money rolls into it.

II

Dead Drops

Binds: Holders of 2.5M $ESCAP3

  1. II.1

    A Dead Drop is a puzzle. The first eligible wallet to submit the correct answer on the claim form wins 0.5 NVDA from The Drop. The form’s timestamp decides.

  2. II.2

    Eligible means the wallet holds at least 2,500,000 $ESCAP3 from the announcement until the winner is posted, and is not a team or affiliated wallet.

  3. II.3

    One answer per wallet per drop. Only the first submission counts.

  4. II.4

    Each drop runs 48 hours. Hint 1 comes at 24 hours and GHOST posts hint 2 at 36 hours. Unsolved at 48 hours: the answer is published and the prize is burned.

  5. II.5

    Every answer is sealed before the drop goes live, and every winner is posted with the payout transaction.

  6. II.6

    A GHOST drop that comes from a vote pays the vote amount instead of 0.5 NVDA.

  7. II.7

    GHOST can postpone a drop before it goes live. He can never block the payout of a solved drop.

The life of a drop that nobody solves. A correct claim ends it at any point.

III

The Human Council

Binds: Everyone, on Day 60

  1. III.1

    On Day 60 we post one question: should they stay? For 24 hours anyone can make their case in the replies.

  2. III.2

    Then the humans who hold the keys give the verdict: ACCEPT or CONTAIN. It is not a poll. GHOST cannot block it.

  3. III.3

    The verdict is a story decision. It does not commit any money. It sets up Season 2.
