JOBBER

IV / Payroll

A badge that is not activated earns nothing. This is the whole retention mechanic and it is not softened anywhere.

Tiers

Activation is paid in $JOBBER. Half is burned, half goes to the treasury.

Tier	Weight
FLOOR	1.0×
DEALER	2.5×
SENIOR	5.0×
PARTNER	10.0×
SIGNATORY	+3.0×, permanent, badges 1–24 only, stacks with any tier above

Decay

Epoch is 7 days. Activation weight falls 25% of its starting value per epoch, linearly, reaching zero after four epochs.

weightAtEpoch = startWeight * (4 - epochsElapsed) / 4, epochsElapsed >= 4 => 0. epoch = 7 days.

Weight is evaluated at distribution time. There is no grace period and no admin override.

Renewal

Before expiry: 60% of the tier price
After expiry: full price

The discount is the point. It gives every holder a reason to look at their wallet every week rather than activating once and forgetting, and it means the token has continuous rather than episodic demand.

Transfer zeroes weight

Selling a badge sets its weight to zero immediately. The buyer activates from scratch at full price.

This is not a penalty on the seller — it is what makes the secondary market a source of token demand rather than a drain on it. Every badge that changes hands produces a new activation. A collection that trades is a collection that burns $JOBBER.

Signatory base weight is not zeroed on transfer. It belongs to the badge, not the holder.
