Contribute with Honey.
Join with HIVE.

The free core remains the center of the ecosystem. Honey records useful participation, HIVE staking offers optional membership benefits, and paid services fund operations through a simple, published revenue model.

One simple model

Contribution and membership stay distinct on purpose.

Honey tracks what people contribute. HIVE is acquired separately and can be staked for membership benefits. Neither is required to use the free core.

Honey

Contribution ledger

One non-transferable, non-spendable record of useful participation. Source labels explain where Honey came from without creating separate balances. Under the current model, no Honey-to-HIVE conversion is enabled today.

  • Earned through participation
  • Never automatically converts to HIVE
  • Does not gate the free core
separate

HIVE

Optional membership

Stake HIVE across six published tiers for stronger Honey earning, more free agent usage, and participating-service member pricing.

  • Acquired separately from Honey
  • Six fixed bee tiers
  • Non-custodial staking with a cooldown

Contribute

Useful participation strengthens one Honey record.

Honey makes contribution legible across the ecosystem without becoming a payment balance, an investment, or a promise of HIVE.

Membership, not investment yieldStaking provides membership benefits, not yield, revenue share, ownership, or a claim on the treasury.
The free core remains freeHolding or staking HIVE is never required for core HivemindOS use.

Revenue

One revenue source. Two independent branches: 15% + 15%.

15% of recognized revenue funds HIVE buybacks, while a separate 15% goes to the company treasury. The treasury does not fund buybacks. The remainder sits outside these two allocations unless separately approved; this page does not assign it a guaranteed purpose.

Independent accountingThe treasury does not fund HIVE buybacks. Each branch has its own ledger and purpose.
Public receiptsEvents mature for seven days, then completed HIVE purchases appear in the public buyback ledger.

Community

A loop between useful work, better products, and more adoption.

Builders contribute, Honey records the work, optional HIVE membership improves in-kind product benefits, and paid adoption produces recognized revenue that follows the independent allocation branches above.

Free core. Useful contribution. Optional membership.

Honey is the contribution ledger. HIVE staking is a six-tier membership system. Recognized revenue sends 15% to HIVE buybacks and a separate 15% to the company treasury.
