SOUR
The Civilization Protocol
The protocol that turns
communities into civilizations.
Your dough. Your bread. Your economy. No banks. No bosses. No borders.
You Build. They Harvest.
The internet promised freedom. It delivered feudalism.
Platforms
You create.
They profit.
You leave.
Nothing remains.
Banks
You save.
They print.
You lose.
Nothing remains.
Borders
You earn.
They block.
You wait.
Nothing moves.
But what if you owned your reputation? What if code replaced the middleman? What if every trade made the economy stronger for everyone?
Three Pillars. One Civilization.
The Crust
Your reputation is yours β on-chain, portable, forever.
The Handshake
Trade with anyone, anywhere β code guards the deal.
The Harvest
Every transaction grows the economy for all Bakers.
Five Doctrines of the New Age
Not a whitepaper β a belief system. Not a token β a civilization.
Your Dough, Your Bread
What you produce belongs to you. No platform, bank, or middleman can harvest your labor. The code protects you. The protocol protects you.
Senin Hamurun, Senin EkmeΔin
Trust the Recipe, Not the Baker
Agreements are written in code. Promises change, recipes don't. Trust mathematics, not people. But bake together.

Every Oven, Every Flame
We are not bound to one chain, one system, one power. The starter rises in every oven. Solana, Ethereum, or our own β wherever the flame burns, we are there.
Her FΔ±rΔ±n, Her AteΕ
Feed the Oven, Shrink the Loaf
Every Bake returns a Pinch to the fire. Supply shrinks. Value rises. Keepers earn. Producers earn more.

We Rise Together
A single baker can make bread. But building civilization takes a village. When you grow, I grow. When the network grows, everyone grows. This starter doesn't rise alone.
We Rise Together
βWe are not a token. We are not a meme. We are building a civilization. And the starter is alive.β
β The Bakers
The Crust. The Handshake. The Harvest.
Three pillars of a new civilization. Simple. Powerful. Unstoppable.
The Crust
Own your reputation
Your reputation is yours. Not on a platform β on the chain. Portable, undeletable, unsellable. Every successful Bake thickens your Crust.
βPlatforms change. Your Crust remains.β
The Handshake
Trade without walls
Two people, one Recipe. No middleman, no borders, no waiting. Code guards the deal, the Starter carries the payment. In every Oven, every Flame.
βDeals need Recipes, not middlemen.β
The Harvest
Grow together
Every Bake returns a Pinch to the Oven. Half burns β supply shrinks. Half flows to those Fermenting. Keepers earn. Producers earn more. The network grows, everyone grows.
β$SOUR Keeper = civilization's partner.β
The Civilizational Flywheel
Each step feeds the next. The civilization grows itself.
The Starter Economy
$SOUR is the currency of a new civilization. Every Bake fuels it. Every Pinch strengthens it.
Community Owned
No team allocation. No insiders. The Bakers own everything.
Zero Pinch on Trade
No buy/sell tax. Trade freely between Jars.
Oven Sealed
LP burned. Liquidity locked in the Oven forever.
Recipe Locked
Mint revoked. Freeze revoked. No backdoors.
The Harvest β Revenue Flow
Every Bake on the protocol β a Pinch (1-3%) feeds the Oven. All in $SOUR. Real utility. Real burn.
