What is live, what is not, and what a pending recognition actually is. Written to be read in five minutes.
How recognition works
SpinWave is becoming a scholarly repository: scholars upload manuscripts and datasets, and the clever recognize their own — in STANZA. Readers will pay SPIN to browse and license data. That is the whole economy, and it is deliberately simple.
The repository opens in Phase 1. Until then, any recognition recorded for scholars is pending — counted, not paid. Reader licensing follows in Phase 2. Amounts are always counted in STANZA, never in dollars. We do not promise what a token is worth; we only promise to keep the books straight.
SEE HOW IT WILL WORK →What “pending” means
Pending means reserved, not paid. Nothing has been sent to you and nothing is held in an account in your name. It is not a balance and is never shown as one.
The form and timing of recognition are set by the terms published when Phase 1 opens — not by anything written before. If Phase 1 never opens, pending recognition has no value.
What is live and what is not
This list is generated from the same configuration that drives every status label on this site — the page cannot say one thing here and another elsewhere.
Token status
The STANZA token is live on Base. The contract address is published on the Token page — and nowhere else first. Treat any address you see elsewhere as fake.
Watch the ticker. Other tokens on other chains also call themselves “SPIN.” Ours lives on Base at the contract above — anything else wearing the ticker is not us.
The pool is deployed but has seen no trades. There is, effectively, no market yet.
READ THE TOKEN PAGE →Trail-marks
Your trail-mark is derived from your wallet — share it, and the den knows who walked you in. Trail-marks carry recognition, not payment: they mark standing among the clever, never a balance. One walker, one mark.
Privacy
Connecting a wallet shares two things: your address and your on-chain STANZA balance — that is all we read, and we read it only to show your standing. We never see, ask for, or store anything else. No email is collected on this site.
Security
SpinWave will never ask for a seed phrase or a private key. Scholar recognition and anything claimable in the future happen only on this site, signed in with your own wallet. Messages offering early recognition, bonus STANZA, or “support” are not from us.
Risks
Said plainly, because the fox respects a reader who reads:
- No market yet. The pool has seen zero trades. Price discovery has not happened, and there is no price to point at.
- A token can lose some or all of its value. Anything counted in STANZA carries that risk.
- Code can fail. The token, the pool, and the vesting reserve are smart contracts, and smart contracts can have bugs.
- Vesting reserve. 15B STANZA is reserved under creator vesting — 1 year, 30-day cliff, nothing claimable before mid-November.
- Ticker confusion. An unrelated token on Solana also calls itself SPIN. Ours lives on Base at the contract in the footer — anything else wearing the ticker is not us.
- The pool is paired with TAO. TAO's own price moves will move the pair.
- The repository does not exist yet. Scholar recognition and reader licensing are Phase 1 and Phase 2. Pending is not a balance.
- Nothing here is financial advice, and holding STANZA is not an investment.
