Lock any of 1001 approved assets.
Earn $VCLM. It cannot be bought at launch — only earned through real commitment.
VCLM will be very scarce at first. As the protocol matures and supply grows, it will become tradable on decentralized and centralized exchanges.
The Protocol
Vinculum is a commitment-based protocol. Lock any of 1001 approved assets for a minimum of seven days and earn $VCLM — the protocol’s native token. It is tradable. It is scarce. It cannot be purchased at launch, pre-allocated, or airdropped.
The only path to $VCLM is through commitment.
A 5% protocol fee is taken from the committed asset at the moment of lock. The remaining 95% is returned when the lock matures. Your $VCLM reward is calculated on the full committed amount.
The Tokens
Primary Token • 10 Billion Hard Cap
Earned by locking assets. Tradable. Scarce. Every VCLM that will ever exist will be earned through commitment.
Expansion Token • 100 Billion Hard Cap
Launches when VCLM supply reaches 10 million. Designed for broader community participation.
Convergence Token • 10 Million Hard Cap
The scarcest token. Can only be created by permanently burning VCLM and CHONX at a fixed ratio.
Governance
Vinculum uses a three-tier Governance Council earned through staking. Seats are time-locked and represent real commitment to the protocol’s long-term health.
Tier 1 (SYNTH) — Highest authority
Tier 2 (CHONX) — Broad participation
Tier 3 (VCLM) — Foundation layer, available from day one
Current Status
All core contracts are complete and passing tests. The protocol is currently in final testing ahead of mainnet deployment on Base.
