What’s a xool? An internal network contribution unit. The accounting reserve is capped at 1,000,000 ⓧ and every distribution is publicly tracked. A xool is not a cryptocurrency, an investment or a financial right. How much is a xool worth? It has no monetary value, cannot be purchased and carries no promise of future conversion. The catalog only shows how many internal xools unlock a Xoolink benefit. How do I earn xools? Two counters move. Your contribution badge (Bronze → Platinum) rises with ALL your actions: inviting an expert, activating a pack, signing and honoring pacts, completing your profile. Your spendable balance fills up from gains the network can verify: the 60 ⓧ welcome for your 4 first steps, referrals (+6 ⓧ when your referee verifies their email), completing your profile, and the xools Digitaline awards on your posts. (Pack/pact gains feed the badge, not the balance.) What are the Bronze → Platinum tiers? Your contribution reputation, based on lifetime xools earned (it never drops): Start, then Bronze (100), Silver (250), Gold (500), Platinum (1,000). Each tier is a badge shown on your profile and in the directory. It’s INDEPENDENT of your plan (Base/Alpha) and of your current balance. What’s the Xoolector circle? A feed circle reserved for members who STAKE. On the Rewards page, if you hold at least 90 xools, you can activate your stake: you become a Xoolector, a “🏔️ Circle” tab appears in the feed, and you post and read publications reserved for other Xoolectors. It’s a choice, never automatic — and you can release the stake at any time (you then leave the circle). How does the Xoolector stake (staking) work? Activating the stake locks 90 xools — they remain yours, but can’t be spent while it’s active (the surplus stays 100% liquid). In exchange: access to the circle, and your crocs 🐺 accumulating continuously (≈ 2.4 per day) — a resource distinct from xools, which you keep even after releasing the stake. Small anti-abuse safeguards: 1 ⓧ to activate, 3 ⓧ to release, and a 24 h minimum period before you can release (looping in and out shouldn’t be free). Without a stake, no restriction: your whole balance is free. What is the pack Council? The Circle’s governance. Each edition, concrete motions (a reward to add to the catalog, an organization to showcase, the next roadmap priority) are put to the Xoolectors, who vote by SPENDING their crocs 🐺 — quadratic cost: 1 voice = 1 croc, 2 voices = 4, 3 voices = 9, capped at 3 voices per motion. Crocs are non-transferable and can’t be bought: a voice is earned through commitment (the stake), never through a credit card. Votes are final and tallies are public. Your lifetime crocs never go down — weighing in at the Council draws from a separate counter. How do I spend or give my xools? Redeem them for Alpha months, profile skins or extra AI compositions. You can also send them to another member as a tip. No use of xools changes the ranking of people or organizations.
