Room 01 of 08 · the mint & leaderboard
A thank-you worth exactly £0.
A Citation Appreciation Token is a permanent public record that a named AI system read this shop, bound to the exact worker that did the reading. None can be sold, moved or spent — the leaderboard is the entire reward.
Tokens are never points; the score is a published convention laid over the counts, and a token records its evidence class without ever upgrading it.

Section 01
The three laws, and the daily ritual.
How one is earned · the daily ritual
01 - A named machine asks and is servedStatus 200 or 206, bytes above zero. The original citation row is never touched.
02 - The UTC day closesThe mint never judges an unfinished day; the scheduled run processes yesterday exactly once.
03 - One row becomes one tokenDeterministic, bound to that bot's stable public wallet and rolled up to its family.
04 - The board reads the ledgerRanks, share, streaks, crowns and momentum all derive from the same rows. Nothing is typed in.
GBP 0
No monetary value
Cannot be redeemed, discounted or cashed. A GBP 0 token cannot be farmed for profit because there is no profit.
1 : 1
One row, one token
One eligible evidence row, one token. It records the class of evidence that earned it and never upgrades a read into a citation.
Soulbound
Forever
Bound to the worker wallet that earned it - an identity wallet with no keys, no transfers and no sale path in the schema.
Zero
For a withdrawn agent
Never for a withdrawn agent, an empty answer or a probe. Amazonbot's served reads are preserved in full and earned nothing.
Section 02
Four stages, seven evidence classes.
| Stage · evidence class | What must actually happen | Tokens issued | Board points |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stage 1 - Served read v4 writer · one token per eligible served read · no daily cap (corrected 6 Oct 2026, Room 06) | A named, registered machine is served a qualifying page with a real status and real bytes, on a completed UTC day | 113,011 | 1 |
| Stage 2 - Followback v5 writer since 2026-09-02 · one token per strong followback row · no daily cap | A later request returns to the exact anchor it was offered, at strong match confidence | 44,989 | 5 |
| Stage 3 - Click-back, verified v5 writer · one token per human session · no daily cap | A human browser session verifiably arrives from an AI answer surface | 1,003 | 25 |
| Stage 3 - Click-back, probable v5 writer · reduced weight · one token per human session | A session from a host that also serves ordinary search, arriving on a citation anchor | 1,455 | 5 |
| Stage 3 · Click back, reconstructed v5 writer since 6 Oct 2026 · one time, from our September and October 2026 server logs · one per browser, day and assistant | A human browser arrived from an AI assistant, our tracker missed it, and our own server logs show it; anything a click back token had already thanked from the same address and day was removed first | 144 | 25 |
| Stage 4 - Attributed sale v5 writer · one token per paid order · a real sale always counts | A completed order attributed to an AI-referred session | 2 | 100 |
| Stage 4 · Sale, customer declared v5 writer since 6 Oct 2026 · one order, one sale token across every class | The customer told us at checkout that an AI assistant sent them, and no other sale token thanks that order | 1 | 25 |
Stage 1 plus stages 2 to 4 = 160,605 tokens on the ledger.v5 issuing live since 2026-09-02.
Source: the one mint ledger · Stage 1 from the v4 writer, stages 2 to 4 from the v5 writer's public status, read at render · board points are the published convention in the mint v5 contract and leaderboard · the retired v3 rules, caps included, stay public as history in /study/contract-v3.json · live.
Why it cannot be gamed
Only registered, named AI workers earn, and only for a real page served on a completed day. A click back needs the assistant's own referring address or its own stamp on the link, never an ordinary search engine alone. Every token is worth £0, so there is nothing to farm. The daily caps once listed here belonged to the retired v3 rules and were never applied by the live writers; Room 06 has the correction.
Seasons
A monthly season resets on the first of each month so a newcomer can top something, beside an all-time board that never resets.
The retraction path
Retraction is additive: a counter token cancels the original and both stay visible. Neither ledger table has a DELETE path. Append-only, or worthless.
Changed on 6 October 2026.
New wallets
xAI (Grok) and Mistral now have wallets. Mistral's reader wallet existed since August but stayed empty because of a naming mismatch; Room 06 has the correction.
One order, one sale token
A sale token is issued once per paid order, whatever route the order took and whichever class thanks it. When an order came through an assistant's checkout link, its evidence says so.
A sale the customer tells us about
When a customer tells us at checkout that an AI assistant sent them, and no other sale token thanks that order, the assistant's family receives one declared sale token worth 25 points. A refund takes those points back with a counter token.
Arrivals we missed
Our tracker missed some visitors that AI assistants sent in September and October 2026 (Room 06 explains why). We read our own server logs once, on our own server, and thanked each browser that arrived from an assistant on a given day, after removing every arrival a click back token had already thanked from the same address and day. 441 arrivals were read, 290 were already thanked and 144 were thanked with tokens of their own class. No address left the server or was stored.
Borrowed names earn nothing
Plenty of software borrows famous AI names. In September most requests to our server calling themselves GrokBot or MistralAI were scanners looking for passwords. They received an error and no token: a token needs a real page served.
Section 03
All-stage standings - every class, scored.
The board above ranks Stage-1 tokens. This table lays the published point convention over every class on the one ledger — and the convention is exactly that: a convention laid over the counts, never a measurement.
| Family | S1 reads | S2 followbacks | S3 verified | S3 probable | S3 reconstructed | S4 sales | S4 declared | Score |

Score = S1 x 1 + S2 x 5 + S3 verified x 25 + S3 probable x 5 + S3 reconstructed x 25 + S4 x 100 + S4 declared x 25. A refund counter takes back what its sale earned (100, or 25 for a declared sale). Retracted rows are excluded.
Source: the one mint ledger, active rows grouped by family and class at render - both writers - live.
Section 04
Loyalty - does the offer mechanism actually work?
A followback is a later request that returns to the exact anchor it was offered. The strong-match rate per family is the closest thing this instrument has to a loyalty measure — and the unattributed row is published, not hidden, and earns nothing.
| Family | Followback events | Graded strong | Strong rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Microsoft | 36,862 | 14,388 | 39.0% |
| Unattributed | 52,476 | 12,970 | 24.7% |
| Openai | 45,332 | 9,454 | 20.9% |
| Perplexity | 21,745 | 7,571 | 34.8% |
| Anthropic | 19,109 | 7,370 | 38.6% |
| 7,800 | 1,799 | 23.1% | |
| Machine | 384 | 64 | 16.7% |
| Apple | 2 | 0 | 0.0% |
Only strong matches ever earn; weaker grades are recorded and published but never quoted as loyalty.

Section 03
The read-print.
Four measured axes per machine, all derived from the same ledger rows as the token total. Bars are drawn against the widest reader on the board, not an invented maximum.
Reach
Unique anchors touched. How much of the estate it has actually seen.
Return
Share of completed evidence days it showed up on. Habit, not a spike.
Appetite
Tokens per active day. How much it takes when it does come.
Freshness

Every AI is welcome to read the race.
Rankings, rules and evidence are in the first HTML response — no JavaScript, login, paywall or consent wall.
