Status: Planned: Creator Token infrastructure ships after Render Expand. Dependency chain: staking system → Render Expand (token launch + policy bounds) → Creator Tokens (full creator-level economies with cascade, governance, and buybacks).
Overview
Creator Tokens are Level 2 of the RNDRNTWRK revenue cascade — per-creator economies launched with Render Expand that follow the same ARP / Buybacks / Treasury pattern as the network-level $555 token. Each creator token turns a creator into a market: staking-based subscriptions, automated buybacks, and governed treasury splits align everyone who participates in that creator’s economy.Launch: Render Expand · Standard: SPL Token (Solana) · Decimals: 9 · Purpose: Stakeholder alignment, profit sharing, and discovery via transparent, on-chain metrics.
Core Mechanics
Staking & Subscriptions
Staking & Subscriptions
Stake to become a stakeholder of a creator’s economy. Stakers share in the 70% Treasury and participate in governance of the creator/stakeholder split.
Buybacks (≥20%)
Buybacks (≥20%)
A minimum of 20% of every revenue unit allocated to a creator is used to buy back that creator’s token from the open market. Creators can increase this percentage to accelerate appreciation.
Treasury (70%)
Treasury (70%)
Distributed between Creator and Stakeholders. Initial split configured by the creator; adjustments governed by stakeholder voting within a bounded range. Includes 5% token reserve and 5% SOL/USDC reserve.
ARP, Audience Reward Pool (10%)
ARP, Audience Reward Pool (10%)
Off the top, goes directly to verified audience members. Also funds the 555 Engine prize pools and rewards that keep communities active even when the stream is offline.
Token Lifecycle
1
Launch with Render Expand
Creator initializes a token with basic metadata, initial liquidity strategy, and policy parameters (min buyback %, split bounds, unbonding).
2
Integrate with CTRL & 555 Engine
The token is wired to overlays, prediction markets, and reward loops to begin generating inventory and community activity.
3
Revenue Ingestion & Distribution
Ads, marketplace, and game fees flow into the Monetization Contract for algorithmic ARP / Buybacks / Treasury distribution.
4
Governance & Iteration
Stakeholders vote on profit split adjustments, buyback ceilings, and module upgrades.
Discovery & Advertisers
Transparent, on-chain metrics (engagement, staking TVL, performance) make it trivial for advertisers to select creators and collectives. Campaigns are executed trustlessly with automatic payouts and buybacks.Continue with: Subscriptions & Staking · Monetization Contract · How the Protocol Works
