Fairness 101

How a launch works

The coin name is locked by commit-reveal math. Anyone can recompute it from the revealed seed.

Ticker and image are generated by the Grok / xAI API after the name is fixed.

The locked box (name)

  1. 1Server creates a secret seed and publishes its SHA-256 hash.
  2. 2Every launch mixes that seed with public blockchain entropy (blockhash + time boundary).
  3. 3Math picks a name from a pre-published word list — nobody types it in.
  4. 4Then Grok invents a ticker and draws a logo from that name.
  5. 5Server reveals the seed. You recompute the name. If it matches, the name was fair.

What each piece is

Name — provably fair

Commit-reveal + word list. Open-source mapping. Verifier recomputes the exact name.

Ticker — Grok API

After the name is known, Grok suggests a 4–6 letter ticker.

Image — Grok Imagine

Grok Imagine draws a logo from a prompt built from the name and ticker.

The formula

// Name (recomputable)
commit = SHA256(server_seed)
random = HMAC-SHA256(server_seed, public_entropy | domain | nonce)
name   = mapWordlist(random)

// Ticker + image (Grok)
ticker = grok.chat("ticker for " + name)
image  = grok.imagine("logo for " + name + " $" + ticker)
