Compute becomes useful
when results can be trusted.

Mining-pass tiers are based on the $LINEAGE value recorded when a 24-hour pass is issued: $30 for 1x, $300 for 1.25x, and $3,000 for 1.5x. The required threshold is checked again at lease start and completion. Tokens are not locked or staked, and a higher balance applies only after requesting a new pass.

A buyer pays for bounded GPU work such as an inference response or a set of rendered frames. After the Solana payment is finalized, Lineage can place the work in the queue and assign fragments to compatible mining sessions. Only verified output completes the job and enters reward accounting.

It is not proof-of-work mining like Bitcoin. A production session runs useful GPU workloads for at least 15 minutes under a signed lease. Rewards come from funded treasury inventory rather than newly minted tokens.

Verified NVIDIA runs map to NVDAx, AMD runs to AMDx, Intel runs to INTCx, and Apple runs to AAPLx. When the browser and verifier cannot establish the vendor, the payout falls back to NVDAx.

The treasury can be funded by paid jobs, disclosed protocol funding, and stock rewards earned by the treasury's $LINEAGE allocation. An epoch can promise only assets already held in the corresponding token vault.

OTC documents that 70% of a launched coin's creator-fee stream buys its chosen tokenized stock or rotating basket for eligible holders. Lineage plans to use the treasury wallet's proportional holder credits as supplemental inventory. Paid jobs and disclosed treasury acquisitions still have to cover any xStock reserve the chosen reward does not supply.

The disclosed protocol treasury currently holds approximately 100,000,000 $LINEAGE. Its primary purpose is to qualify that wallet for a proportional share of OTC holder rewards, so stock-linked assets received by the treasury can help cover verified runner claims. It does not guarantee yield or a reward rate. Until multisig custody and a public movement policy are active, holders should treat the allocation as controlled—not locked—supply.

The runner uses browser WebGPU or a limited WebGL2 fallback and installs nothing. It can sustain high GPU load, increase power use, and spin up fans, so every run requires explicit consent and can be stopped at any time.

Not always. Browsers intentionally restrict hardware identity. Lineage displays only the vendor, architecture, or model information the browser exposes and treats uncertain identities as unknown until server verification.

Production runs require a signed mining pass and a wallet-bound, one-use lease. The server issues an unpredictable challenge every minute, enforces its arrival window, requires advancing workload telemetry, and calculates the reward from server-observed duration. Missing, early, late, duplicated, or replayed checkpoints are rejected. This verifies continuous protocol participation; ordinary browsers still cannot provide cryptographic GPU attestation.

$LINEAGE gates production mining passes and their tier multiplier. The one-minute public trial remains available without a pass and publishes with a no-reward label, but it never enters a reward epoch.

No. Lineage is an early-stage compute protocol. Token and xStock prices can move, treasury inventory can change, and no reward amount is guaranteed.
