The route

The route the money takes

Five steps from a trade to a nonprofit. Three of them are contract code with no admin key. Two of them are people doing desk work, and they are labelled as such, because a diagram that pretends everything is automatic is the exact lie this product exists to answer.

  1. 01

    Launch

    Enforced on-chain

    One transaction. The VOW factory launches your coin on pons, deploys its vault, and seals the fee route to it before the transaction ends. The factory is the coin's deployer and has no way to re-point the route, so neither do you, and neither do we.

  2. 02

    Fees accrue

    Enforced on-chain

    Trading fees accrue under the pons v2 launch settings. The creator-fee recipient is the vow vault; the exact economics are checked against the live configuration.

  3. 03

    Harvest

    Enforced on-chain

    Anyone can call harvest. The vault collects accrued fees through the pons v2 curve and escrow and splits every asset it holds by the sealed percentage. Permissionless, so the flow cannot be stalled by us going quiet: the board puts that call behind a button on every row that has fees waiting.

  4. 04

    Convert

    Settlement desk

    The vowed share lands at the settlement desk, which converts it to dollars. Gas, swap and bridge costs come out of the flow here, and all are reported per batch. There is no on-chain swap in our contracts on purpose: it would add a router dependency and a slippage surface we would then have to ask you to trust.

  5. 05

    Settle

    Settlement desk

    The settlement desk uses the nonprofit's supported donation route, including The Giving Block where available. The receipt lands on the ledger next to the batch it closes.

What the chain enforces, and what it cannot

Contract code, no admin key

  • The split percentage, fixed at launch between 25% and 100%.
  • The cause binding, written into the vault as an immutable id.
  • The creator-fee recipient route to the vault.
  • Harvest being callable by anyone, including you.
  • The vault having no owner, so no key can drain or redirect it.

People, reported per batch

  • Converting the vowed share to dollars.
  • Bridging it off Robinhood Chain.
  • Making the donation through The Giving Block.
  • Publishing the batch, its costs, and its receipt.
  • Splitting the flagship's share across every listed cause.

Everything in the right column is a promise from us rather than a guarantee from the chain, which is why the ledger publishes the deductions instead of only the totals. Plain terms says the same thing in legal language.
