desk

How it works.

The whole game. Five actions, one wallet, two clocks running against each other.

01

The loop

  1. 1Recruit a trader.A blind draw. You pay in HOOD, the money goes to the book.
  2. 2Collect what it earns.Yield = edge × morale multiplier × sector multiplier.
  3. 3Pay it a bonus before morale runs out.Costs $DESK. Burned, every token of it.
  4. 4If you do not, it tilts and starts costing you.And anyone can buy it out from under you.

02

Traders

TierOddsEdgeMorale lost per dayTilts in
Junior60%100–14050018 days
Senior30%180–26075012 days
Star10%350–5001,2507 days

The star is unmanageable on purpose. It earns three times the junior and burns two and a half times faster. Rare NFTs should have a temperament, not just a bigger number.

03

Morale

MoraleWhat happensOutput
10,000Starting value at every bonus100%
7,000Full output down to here100%
3,000Output falls in a straight line40%
2,500Anyone can poach it, without your consent33%
1,000Tilt. It drains the desk every day−25%

Morale falls continuously, on every trader, whether you play or not. Nothing restores it except paying a bonus. A tilting trader does not earn less — it earns negative.

04

Your five actions

ActionWhat you getWhat it costs
BonusMorale back to full$DESK, 100% burned
RecruitOne more trader, drawn blindHOOD, goes to the book
PoachSomeone else's trader, now$DESK, 70% to them, 30% burned
Provide liquidityPassive compoundingCapital locked, desk undefended
FireThe book value backYou lose the position

All five come out of the same wallet. That single constraint is what turns every action into a trade-off.

05

Poaching

Below 2,500 morale, any player can buy your trader. You cannot refuse.

cost = trader value × (1 + your desk size ÷ 10)²
Your deskYou pay
0 traders×1.00
10 traders×4.00
30 traders×16.00

The price grows with the size of the buyer's desk, not just the trader's value. Poaching is the small desk's weapon against the big one. The trader arrives with its morale unchanged — you bought a problem, not a solution.

06

Sectors

Every trader belongs to a sector, and every sector is backed by real Uniswap v4 pools on Robinhood Chain. Their volume sets the multiplier.

SemisNVDA, AMD, AVGO
IndexSPY, QQQ, GLD
Crypto-fiCOIN, MSTR, CRCL
EnergyOKLO, VST, CEG
ConsumerAAPL, TSLA, AMZN
multiplier = clamp(7-day volume ÷ average, 0.50, 2.00)
