Fees
Every $ROOTs trade on Pons pays a creator fee. It lands in the reserve, not in a wallet.
V2 relaunch on Pons, Robinhood Chain
Supply doesn't pump.
It rebases.
Stake $ROOTs and every eight minutes the balance is rewritten upward. In V2, every trade waters the reserve that pays it.
Stake $ROOTs, hold sROOTs, balances compound every close. Fees feed the reserve. No claiming, no lockups. Chain 4663.
V2. The rebase now has an income.
V1 paid the rebase out of a fixed reserve, so the 4,096% was a countdown. V2 relaunches on Pons, where every trade pays a fee, and routes that fee into the reserve at every close. Same clock. Same rate. The roots get watered.

Six moving parts. That is the whole protocol.
Every one of them is on chain, and every one of them is boring on purpose.
01
Stake
Lock $ROOTs, hold sROOTs one for one. The position starts compounding at the next close, not next week.
03
Rebase
Every eight minutes the reserve pays into the staking pool and every staked wallet grows in place.
04
The index
One sROOTs is always one staked $ROOTs. The index carries the growth so your balance never needs migrating.
05
Reserve
Fees in, rebases out. The reserve balance is published at every close and never marketed up.
06
Rings
Every close writes a ring: index, staked supply, reserve balance. 180 a day, in order, none skipped. A bad close gets a ring too.
Stake once. The balance rewrites itself.
There is no claim button because there is nothing to claim. Rewards are not sent to you. They are added to what you already hold, 180 times a day, whether or not you are watching.

Caveat
Token count, not price. Only staked balances grow, so an unstaked holder is diluted at the same rate.
Buy, stake, walk away.

Two steps and one thing to watch. No whitelist, no allocation form, no role to farm. The curve opens to everyone at relaunch and the vault takes deposits from the first block.
Buy $ROOTs
Relaunches on Pons, then routes to the pool. Anyone can buy any size.
Stake for sROOTs
Credited one for one. Your staked balance grows on its own at every close.
Watch the rings
Every close writes a ring on this page: index, staked supply, reserve. If the protocol has a bad close, the ring says so.
The reserve is the floor.
Fees are the only way value enters the reserve and rebases are the only way it leaves. The balance is read from the chain at every close, not from a deck.

Every close leaves a ring.
A ring bot reads the vault and the reserve at every close and posts one ring, 180 a day. Index, supply staked, reserve balance, fees since the last ring. If the protocol has a bad close, the bot posts that too.

Questions that keep coming up.
What is Root Rebase V2?
A rebase protocol on Robinhood Chain. You stake $ROOTs, your staked balance is credited as sROOTs one for one, and it compounds every eight minutes at a fixed rate. V2 adds an income: every trade fee is routed into the reserve that pays the rebase, and every close leaves a ring.
Why Root Rebase V2?
V1 launched on pools.trade, which pays no fee to the protocol. The rebase came out of a fixed reserve, so the 4,096% was a countdown, and bonds never opened. Pons pays a creator fee on every trade. V2 routes that fee into the reserve at every close. Same clock and same rate, with an inflow behind it.
What happens to V1 $ROOT?
A snapshot of V1 holders is taken before the V2 curve opens, and the airdrop allocation is claimable one for one against it. The V1 contract is retired and is not shown on this site again. Details of the snapshot are posted from the X account before relaunch.
Where does the yield come from?
Two places. New supply, minted into the staking pool at every close, so stakers keep their share and non-stakers give theirs up. And the reserve, which is fed by trade fees and published at every close. The reserve is the floor under the rebase.
Do I need to claim or restake?
No. There is no claim transaction and no compounding button. The index updates at every close and your staked balance updates with it.
What is a ring?
One receipt per close. Ring number, index after, staked supply, reserve balance and fees since the last ring, written on this page and posted by the ring bot. 180 a day, in order, none skipped. If the protocol has a bad close, that close gets a ring too.
Is this financial advice?
No. Root Rebase is a coordination game with a fixed emission schedule and a fee-fed reserve. Rebase protocols have historically gone to zero when the coordination breaks. Size accordingly.
The first ring is the only one you cannot buy back.
Rules frozen. Reserve waiting on its first fee. Clock running.
