A limited, separate upgrade.

What "Lifetime" means

Founding Lifetime Membership has a first membership and participation period of ten years. Lifetime does not mean free membership throughout the person’s natural life. Terms for subsequent periods are decided through cooperative governance.

The Founding profit pool

The first 10,000 qualified Founding Members collectively participate in a defined pool corresponding to 20% of qualifying future profits — profits, not revenue.

• There is no guaranteed distribution.
• It is not automatic equity, and not direct ProductCo or AI City ownership.
• It grants no extra votes.
• Legal, tax, accounting, reserve, compliance and governance conditions apply at all times.

Genesis and Founding are separate

Genesis refers to 2,500 verified Annual Members at the EUR 160 international reference, producing a EUR 400,000 gross reference before deductions, intended to support the first controlled infrastructure MVP. Founding is a separate upgrade with its own limit, period and conditions. The full distributed ledger does not launch automatically at member 2,500.
