Every $KILO is machined from tokenized semiconductor & energy infrastructure, bolted into a non-withdrawable vault and ratcheted through a six-module machine that only cuts in one direction — up.
Deposit tokenized semiconductor & energy assets to mint $KILO at an 18% discount. Principal is machined permanently into the reserve plinth — the floor ratchets up with every bond.
Floor = Total Basket Net Asset Value (USD) / Circulating $KILO Supply. The reserve plinth (SiliconEnergyVault.sol) is completely non-withdrawable. Every protocol swap fee and 18% discount bond deposit injects assets into the vault numerator without increasing circulating supply proportionally. As a result, the floor strictly ratchets upwards (Floor(t+1) ≥ Floor(t)) and cannot mathematically drop.BondingDepository.sol, users and AI agent swarms can deposit tokenized semiconductor & energy assets or stablecoins (USDC) to mint $KILO at an 18% discount below the current market spot price. Bonded tokens vest linearly over a 24-hour period, providing arbitrage alpha while permanently expanding treasury reserves.StakingEpochEngine.sol checks if the treasury backing has set a new historical High-Water Mark (HWM). Only if a new peak is reached are protocol yields minted and distributed to stakers via the poke() function. If market conditions do not achieve a new HWM, exactly 0 new tokens are emitted.
