The Leanest, Most Transparent Founder-Built Tokensale
Overview
TRST1 is a non-speculative, reputational token issued by the founder of a real, revenue-seeking venture. It enables early believers to support the founder with minimal friction, full transparency, and clear incentives for long-term trust โ not short-term speculation.
Key Principles
- โ
No smart contracts (for now) โ simple off-chain ledger and public rules
- ๐ Growth-based token pricing โ predictable, compounding, immutable
- ๐ผ Founder-focused โ funds used to build the business, not play token games
- ๐ช Buyback commitment โ part of future revenue or capital goes to repurchasing tokens
- ๐ข Green record โ goal is not just to raise, but to repay and fulfill
- ๐ต Stablecoin-denominated โ we use stable, liquid currencies like USDT to stay grounded in real value
All Off-Chain by Design
There are no smart contracts, no blockchain dependencies, and no tokens on-chain in TRST1.
All records โ including purchases, price history, and buyback commitments โ are stored and published via public, verifiable files (e.g., IPFS). This gives transparency without technical or legal complexity, and allows projects to operate in any regulatory environment.
This is not a workaround. It's a philosophical stance:
- Builders shouldn't need Solidity to earn trust.
- Contributors shouldn't need MetaMask to participate.
- The protocol exists in shared knowledge, public logic, and human intention โ not in gas fees.
