Bots

Sealed, revealed, put to work

A Bot is a second NFT that a DePunk reveals — a ladder of its own, running beside the DePunk one rather than continuing it. Three rungs: Sealed ticket, Revealed, Worker. Only the last one earns, and every step past the first is optional.

The DeBots run is 3,500, and most of it is already spoken for.

  • 1,553 of the 3,500 are allowlist-guaranteed.
  • The other 1,947 mint on OpenSea on September 7th at 0.01 ETH. More info soon.
  • The old in-app doors are closed — the burn window shut on 23 August 2026.
  • Open it whenever you like — the reveal waits for you.
You hold: a sealed Bot — no traits yet, freely tradeable. The launch lives on the DeBots page

Reveal it

One upgraded DePunk in your wallet is the key. VRF does the rest.

  • The reveal fee is 0 ETH; you pay transaction gas. Choose one upgraded DePunk and one sealed Bot you own. VRF selects the traits.
  • The punk is only the reveal key: nothing locks, nothing is burned, and it stays free to sell or deposit. Its one-use reveal allowance is consumed when the request is accepted, even if sold.
  • The 3,500 reveals include 3,482 generative Bots and 18 one-of-ones. On-chain randomness selects the outcome when you summon. Scarce traits have exact quantities; ordinary traits follow rarity weights. Remaining odds change as the finite inventories are drawn.
  • A revealed Bot has a body, not a job. It pays nothing until it is promoted.
You hold: traits set for good, a picture that fills in as the studio renders them — and the punk exactly as it was.
Rung threeoptional

Promote it to a Worker

Any time after reveal — there is no deadline and no pressure.

  • Pay 99,000 $DPUNK to activate the Bot against any revealed DePunk — not just its reveal partner.
  • The fee splits 60% to Workers, 30% burned, 10% to the team — the same split every other fee takes.
  • A Worker does the platform’s paid work — wallet scans and whitelist eligibility checks — and its ETH fees go to the holder of the punk it works against.
  • The fee is per activation, not per Bot: a sold Bot costs its next holder the same 99,000 to put back to work.
You hold: the only rung that earns — paid work, ETH fees back to the holder.
What you hold

Sealed, Revealed, Worker

  • Sealed — a ticket, not opened. No traits. Freely tradeable.
  • Revealed — traits are set on chain, and the picture is cast in 3D and rendered again as each trait joins the studio. Yours outright, and done if you want it to be.
  • Worker — promoted and earning. Never an “agent”: Agent is a DePunk tier, not a job, and an Agent never becomes a Worker.
Example: “Do I have to promote it?” → no. A revealed Bot is a finished collectible; plenty of people stop there, and that is a complete product.

Why a DePunk holder cares

Holders

The punk is the earning seat

  • A Worker’s fees go to the holder of the punk it works against — hosting one costs the punk nothing and locks nothing.
  • Any revealed punk can host an activation, not only the one you chose at reveal.
  • Every Bot that changes hands and goes back to work pays the 99,000 again — recurring demand on top of the service revenue.
Means: a revealed punk earns without giving anything up — its claim stays intact while a Worker pays it.
Fine print

In plain words

  • The ticket cap is fixed. 3,500 Bots, ever: 1,553 allowlist-guaranteed and 1,947 left to mint.
  • Reveal locks nothing. The upgraded DePunk is proof, not payment: it is not spent, not burned, and stays free to sell or deposit.
  • Nothing is pre-assigned. Traits are drawn by on-chain randomness at the summon, without replacement. The final quantities are reached when all Bots are revealed.
  • The activation fee recurs. 99,000 $DPUNK per activation, on the same 60/30/10 split as every other fee.
  • The numbers live in one place. Prices, the split and the vocabulary are on /tokenomics and in /tokenomics.md — this page cannot quote different ones.
