One thousand twenty-four. Numbered. Sealed until inscribed.
Each Cell is a unique non-fungible Algorand Standard Asset (ASA) and a one-of-one by construction. The Cell carries exactly one substantive right: to inscribe one immutable artifact of payload ≤ 4 KB under a Falcon-1024 signature, with the signature verified on-chain at consensus by the native TEAL falcon_verify opcode. The cardinality of 1,024 is fixed at genesis under the Algorand zero-address configuration; no minting authority survives the genesis transaction.
32 × 32 = 1,024. Each square is a Cell.
A Cell exists in one of three states.
The Cell exists on Algorand but has not been inscribed. It is bound to its holder's wallet. It cannot be transferred (if pre-sale) until the next state is reached.
↓ holder inscribes →An artifact ≤ 4 KB has been signed by the holder's Falcon-1024 key and verified by the contract. The artifact is permanently bound to the Cell. The Cell still cannot be transferred (if pre-sale) until 24 months from genesis have elapsed.
↓ time + inscription →The Cell is now freely transferable as a standard Algorand NFT. The inscription travels with it. The verifying public key is on-chain. The artifact's authenticity is publicly checkable forever.
Three hundred Cells before genesis. The remaining 723 mint at launch.
The pre-sale capitalizes the protocol: Stiftung formation under the Swiss Civil Code (arts. 80–89-bis), independent smart-contract audit, cryptographer-advisor retainers, and the first twenty-four months of foundation operation. Founder personal capital is zero by deliberate design — codified as a binding stop condition in Section 2 of the founder's commitment letter. No VC tranche. No fungible-token pre-sale. No private allocation. No advisor allocation that precedes the public unlock.
Offered outside the United States under Regulation S (safe harbor from US registration for offshore distributions) and to US-resident accredited investors under Regulation D 506(c) with verified accreditation. KYC/AML is mandatory for every buyer regardless of jurisdiction. Maximum two Cells per natural person, cumulative across tiers — a per-buyer cap structured to dispersion, not accumulation.
Pre-sale Cells are non-transferable until both conditions are met.
Conjunction, not disjunction. A pre-sale Cell sealed for twenty-four months remains non-transferable. A pre-sale Cell inscribed on day one remains non-transferable for twenty-four months. The lock is enforced in the inscription contract at the protocol level — not as policy, not as undertaking, not as social expectation. Because the underlying ASA is non-transferable for the bootstrap window, every higher-order derivative (lending, fractionalization, wrapping, AMM-pooling) is also impossible. The structural intent is to remove secondary-market investment behavior from the pre-sale cohort during the issuer-effort period — which is the supervisory concern that drives Anlagetoken re-characterization under FINMA's 2018 framework.
Genesis-day Cells (#302 → #1024) carry no transferability lock. They are freely transferable from issuance and the inscription mechanism is the only gate they encounter.
