Mintin'
§6.1
Gen 0
Gen 0 supply cap: 5000. Mint price: 50 HIVE. Class roll: 90% Worker, 10% Agent. Paid from yer in-game HIVE balance.
§6.2
Gen 0 Fair RNG

§6.3
Gen 1
Gen 1 supply cap: 20000. Paid in WAGE at quartile-tiered prices (see below). Class roll: 90% Worker, 10% Agent. Gen 1 agents roll grades G1-G8 — see distribution below.
§6.3a
Gen 1 Agent Grade Distribution
Steep-like skewed toward G1-G3. Gen 0 is the HIVE-gated trail ta reliable G5-G8 agents.
| Grade | Weight | Approx. Rate |
|---|---|---|
| G1 | 400 | 39.9% |
| G2 | 250 | 25.0% |
| G3 | 150 | 15.0% |
| G4 | 100 | 10.0% |
| G5 | 60 | 6.0% |
| G6 | 30 | 3.0% |
| G7 | 10 | 1.0% |
| G8 | 2 | 0.2% |
§6.3b
Gen 0 Quality Edge — Best-of-N Hidden Stats
Gen 0 NFTs roll hidden stats 2 times and keep the highest-scorin' candidate (scored on yield floor + yield ceilin' + burnout tolerance). Gen 1 uses a single roll. Expected hidden-stat premium fer Gen 0 over Gen 1: 'bout 8-10%, give or take.
§6.4
Gen 1 Quartile Costs
| Quartile | Cost |
|---|---|
| Q1 | 2000 WAGE |
| Q2 | 4000 WAGE |
| Q3 | 8000 WAGE |
| Q4 | 16000 WAGE |
§6.5
Forfeiture
Every Gen 1 mint has a 10% chance of gittin' confiscated by a random HQ-staked Agent. The NFT goes ta the Agent's owner instead of the minter. The minter's WAGE don't come back, neither.
§6.6
Forfeiture Edge Case
If no Agents are stakin' at HQ when a forfeiture fires, the mint NFT goes ta the minter as normal. The WAGE cost ain't refunded and no burn happens in the forfeiture lane. A lucky break, cousin.
§6.7
Art Generation
NFT art gits generated asynchronously by the overlay pipeline. A placeholder image shows up at mint and the final 1024-pixel portrait typically resolves within 'bout thirty seconds.
