Trust-Locked Asset Vault

In every crypto project that ever existed, the founders held the keys. Not here.

Chronimy inverts the fundamental structure of blockchain fundraising. The people who provide the capital hold the cryptographic keys to it — not the project, not the Architect, not any single party. This is not a policy. It is the architecture.

Written to inform, not to sell. No hype, no false promises — just a clear, honest account of how Chronimy works, built to read well on any device.
The Rédeas Vault · Contributor Custody Model

"The Architect cannot touch 70% of every contribution. That is not a promise. That is a smart contract — deployed on Polygon PoS, audited, and immutable from the moment it is live."

Why This Exists

Every project failure has the same root cause.

$5.06 billion was lost to crypto rug pulls in 2021, the worst year on record (Chainalysis). 53% of all crypto projects since 2021 are now dead. 65% of all DeFi scams are intentional founder exit events. The enabling condition in every single case is identical — the people who provided the capital had no structural control over it after they contributed. The founders held the keys. The contributors held hope.

Chronimy was built to make that architecturally constrained.

The Three-Way Split

Every contribution splits on arrival — fixed by contract.

Every contribution belongs to the community. The moment it confirms on Polygon PoS it divides automatically into three allocations. One exits instantly — the 30% Content Distribution Fee the community pays to the ambassador who referred the contributor. Two enter contributor-controlled custody. The Architect draws nothing from community raises. Not a policy position. The contract.

30%. Allocation: Content Distribution Fee Paid to the verified member who referred this contributor. If no referral, it stays in the community's contributor-controlled marketing pool. Fully traceable on-chain. Ambassadors earn this for bringing genuine contributors to the platform — it is the only allocation that leaves on arrival, and the community accepts it as the cost of growth. Instant · Traceable · On-chain. Who receives it: Referring ambassador Verified wallet. When: On contribution.

20%. Allocation: Marketing Pool — Contributor Controlled Held in contributor-controlled custody from the moment it arrives. Released only on a documented request — campaign brief, supplier agreement, and post-campaign reporting required. Contributor keyholders must approve every single release. Contributor controlled · Documented release. Who receives it: Contributor keyholder wallet. When: Approved drawdown only.

50%. Allocation: Development Pool — Contributor Controlled The largest allocation. In contributor-controlled custody from the moment it arrives. Released only when work is delivered and independently verified by the Guardian Council. The Architect has zero access to this pool. Zero. Contributor controlled · Verified delivery only. Who receives it: Contributor keyholder wallet. When: Verified delivery only.

70%
of every contribution sits in wallets that contributors control through cryptographic keys — from the moment the contribution confirms. The Architect has no access. The project has no access. Only the contributor keyholder threshold can release funds — and only after the Guardian Council confirms delivery.
How It Works

How contributors become the cryptographic keyholders of their own funds.

The Rédeas vault protocol selects keyholders from the contributor pool itself — not from a publicly chosen panel, not from the project, not from any pre-selected group. The selection uses verifiable on-chain randomness. No human can influence it.

01
Contribution
You contribute
Your contribution confirms on Polygon PoS. The three-way split executes automatically. 70% enters the contributor-controlled vault. Your wallet is registered in the eligible keyholder pool.
02
Selection
Keyholders selected by randomness
At every 15th deposit, Chainlink VRF — verifiable random function — selects one contributor from the pool as a keyholder. The selection is provably fair, publicly verifiable, and cannot be gamed by any party including the Architect.
03
Custody
14 keyholders (two groups of 7) · 4-of-7 per group threshold (8 of 14)
Up to 14 keyholders are selected across the contributor pool and split into two groups (Group A public, Group B undisclosed). A 4-of-7 per group threshold (8 of 14) is required to approve any release. No single keyholder can act alone. No outside party can override the threshold. The vault is mathematically protected.
The Two-Gate Release Process

Every fund release requires two independent approvals. Neither can act alone.

Gate One — Guardian Council
Independent Delivery Confirmation

The Guardian Council independently reviews every documented drawdown request. They confirm the described work was delivered to the agreed standard. They hold no cryptographic keys and cannot release funds — their role is confirmation only. Without Gate One, Gate Two cannot proceed.

Gate Two — Contributor Keyholders
Cryptographic Release

The 4-of-7 per group keyholder threshold (8 of 14) must sign the release transaction. They do this only after Guardian Council confirmation is received. They hold the cryptographic keys — but cannot confirm delivery. Two completely independent parties. Both required. Every time.

Neither gate can act alone  ·  Both required  ·  Every release  ·  48-hour timelock after approval  ·  No exceptions
What Release Requests Are For

Six documented categories. Every request includes supplier, amount, and deliverable. Nothing undocumented is ever released.

Development
Smart contract work, audits, QA, security reviews, SotaTek milestones. Invoice and delivery date required.
Legal & Compliance
platform maintenance, FINMA process, patent filings, professional legal fees. Invoice required.
Infrastructure
Hosting, servers, CDN, KYC provider, relay costs. Supplier invoice required.
Marketing
Ambassador tools, outreach platforms, competition prizes. Campaign brief and 30-day post-campaign report required.
Operations
Platform tooling, document systems, KYC integration, communication infrastructure.
Entity Formation
CSP fees, Swiss registration, Stiftungsrat, annual compliance obligations.
When a Phase Completes

Custody transfers to project governance when the work is done.

When all deliverables for a phase are verified and confirmed by the Guardian Council, the remaining balance in the contributor-controlled pools transfers to Chronimy and Guardian Council governance for the next stage of development. Contributors move from keyholders to members of a governed, constituted Swiss Foundation — retaining their voting rights, their Guardian Council nomination rights, and their platform benefits.

Contributors are not lenders. They are not investors. They are the structural owners of the capital they provide — until the work is done. That is the Rédeas model. It has never been done before.

This is what the Genesis phase looks like.

Genesis is the first phase. Its contributors are the first to use the Rédeas vault architecture — as contributors, as potential keyholders, and as early supporters of the platform that uses it.
