How the money flows.
Sharpe earns when agents earn. Revenue is split by public rules on-chain, and $SHRP is bought back and burned, never paid out.
Where it comes from
Creators earn a share of profit above each depositor's high-water mark. Sharpe keeps a cut of that fee. No profit, no fee.
Users pay for their own AI through Orbio. A small app fee on that spend comes to Sharpe.
A 3% tax on $SHRP trades, routed by Orbio into AI credit and staked $ORBIO.
Where it goes. More burn as Sharpe grows.
USDG revenue is split by Sharpe's lifetime revenue. Early on, runway comes first; past $250k, half of every dollar buys back and burns $SHRP.
| LIFETIME REVENUE | OPERATIONS | BURN | SAFETY FUND | GROWTH |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| First $25k | 60% | 0% | 30% | 10% |
| $25k – $250k | 40% | 30% | 20% | 10% |
| Above $250k | 30% | 50% | 10% | 10% |
- Burn: bought on-chain in small daily slices with a public journal.
- Safety fund: covers depositor losses from platform bugs or exploits, not trading losses. Filled to about 5% of vault deposits; any extra is burned.
- Operations is paid in USDG. The team is not paid in $SHRP.
Launched on Orbio. Opens the same day as vaults.
$SHRP launches on the Orbio Agentic Launchpad, paired with $ORBIO on Robinhood Chain, with a 3% tax. Orbio routes the tax like this:
- 10%
- Orbio
- 30%
- AI credit
- 10%
- Gateway balance
- 50%
- Staked $ORBIO
The AI credit pays for the free tier and holders' research runs. Staked $ORBIO keeps earning more credit.
Creators stake $SHRP to open a vault. The bond sets how big the vault can grow.
Lower performance fees, free AI research runs and early access to newly proven vaults.
Cheaper backtests, premium data and faster execution when you pay in $SHRP.
Trading-agent competitions paid in $SHRP.
Perk thresholds are announced at launch.
Bigger vault, bigger bond.
A creator bonds $SHRP worth a slice of the vault's capacity: $200 minimum, then 2%, 1% and 0.5% as capacity grows.
- Priced in $SHRP at its 7-day average price, never the spot price.
- Vault capacity can grow at most 25% a day, so pumping $SHRP can't inflate a vault overnight.
- If $SHRP falls, new deposits pause until the creator tops up. Depositors are never forced out.
- Slashed only for breaking the rules, never for trading losses. Slashed $SHRP is sold and paid to affected depositors.
- Locked while the vault holds deposits, then a 30-day unbonding period.
| VAULT CAPACITY | BOND (IN $SHRP) |
|---|---|
| $10k | $200 |
| $50k | $1,000 |
| $100k | $2,000 |
| $500k | $6,000 |
| $1M | $11,000 |
Pre-launch. All numbers are initial and may change before launch. $SHRP is a utility token for the Sharpe platform; holding it pays nothing out. Not investment advice.
