STANDARD.
NFT collection, GLD launch flow, activation rewards, locked liquidity and burn mechanics.
ECOSYSTEM BLUEPRINT · SUBJECT TO LEGAL, TAX & COMPLIANCE REVIEW
01 / OVERVIEW
3,333 NFTs.
ONE GOLD ECONOMY.
The Gold Standard is a 3,333 supply NFT collection built around the GLD ecosystem, Anvil Market and the StonkBrokers Safe Launch system.
The project connects NFT ownership, NFT activation, Anvil Market activity, OpenSea trading activity, token trading fees, bonding curve launch mechanics, locked liquidity, reward distribution and burn mechanics into one ecosystem.
The goal is to make The Gold Standard more than a PFP collection. Activated NFT holders become part of a mining economy where ecosystem activity flows back to the community in GLD.
Fees generated from Anvil Market activity, token trading and OpenSea NFT trading are collected by the project treasury. Fee revenue is intended to be converted into GLD and distributed to eligible NFT holders.
Nothing on this page guarantees income, profit, a dividend, price appreciation or a particular distribution. All programs remain subject to published terms, technical readiness, legal, tax and compliance requirements.

PHASE 01 / NFT COLLECTION DEPLOYMENT
THE COLLECTION
ARRIVES FIRST.
The Gold Standard begins with the deployment of the 3,333 supply NFT collection. The collection launches with pre-reveal metadata and a mystery image before the official reveal.
During this stage, users can buy NFTs directly through Anvil instead of minting. The NFTs are available through the Anvil Market system.
PHASE 02 / NFT ACTIVATION
ACTIVATE.
THEN CLAIM.
To be eligible for rewards, holders must activate their NFTs through either the official The Gold Standard website or the Anvil Market interface.
Only activated NFTs participate in the reward distribution system. Eligible holders will claim their GLD rewards through the official website and the Anvil Market interface.
THE REWARD FLOW
PHASE 03 / ANVIL TOKEN CREATION
THE TOKEN
CONNECTS.
After the NFT collection is deployed, the project creates the Anvil token connected to The Gold Standard ecosystem. The token supply received from Anvil is prepared for launch through the StonkBrokers liquidity system.
PHASE 04 / BONDING CURVE LAUNCH
GLD FINDS
ITS PRICE.
The GLD token launches through the StonkBrokers LP system using a bonding curve model. Token price discovery happens through the bonding curve structure instead of a traditional fixed price launch.
The launch begins with a starting market cap of $10,000 and graduates at a bonded market cap of $200,000. At graduation, approximately 77.6% of the supply is sold through the bonding curve, with around 18.4 ETH raised. The graduation price is approximately 20x compared to the starting price.
PHASE 05 / SAFE LAUNCH & LOCKED LIQUIDITY
FAIRER LAUNCH.
LOCKED LP.
The GLD token launch uses the StonkBrokers Safe Launch structure. Safe Launch provides anti-snipe mechanics and permanently locked liquidity.
The anti-snipe tax starts at 99% and decreases by 1% every minute over a 99 minute window. During the launch window, selling is disabled. The structure is intended to reduce sniper advantage and create a fairer launch environment for the community.
PHASE 06 / WINDOW TAX DISTRIBUTION
THE WINDOW
ROUTES FEES.
| RECIPIENT | LAUNCH WINDOW TAX |
|---|---|
| Creator | 16.5% |
| Protocol | 16.5% |
| StockBooster | 16.5% |
| Gate Card referrals | 0.5% |
| Locked LP reserves | 50% |
After deployment, the Safe Launch lifecycle runs fully on chain and automatically. The anti-snipe tax decreases every minute, the bonding curve closes at the graduation point or bell point, and bonding remains permissionless.
PHASE 07 / FEE REVENUE DISTRIBUTION
ACTIVATED NFTs.
GLD REWARDS.
Only activated NFTs will be eligible for GLD distribution. Anvil Market fees are intended to flow back to the NFT community, while token buy/sell fees and OpenSea NFT trading fees are intended to be converted into GLD for activated NFT holders.
| ACTIVITY SOURCE | ROUTE | ELIGIBLE RECIPIENTS |
|---|---|---|
| Anvil Market activity | Project treasury → GLD | Activated NFT holders |
| Token buy / sell fees | Project treasury → GLD | Activated NFT holders |
| OpenSea NFT trading fees | Project treasury → GLD | Activated NFT holders |
Distribution timing, snapshots, GLD conversion amounts, claim windows, eligibility, minimums, custody, regions and tax treatment will be set out in the applicable published terms.
PHASE 08 / BURN MECHANICS
ACTIVITY
MEETS BURN.
Tokens generated from ecosystem activity may also be used for burn mechanisms. A portion of activity-based tokens is intended to be burned in support of the long-term sustainability of the GLD economy.
The Gold Standard aims to be more than a PFP project: holders become part of a mining economy where ecosystem activity flows back to activated NFTs in GLD, while burn mechanics support long-term value.
PHASE 09 / ECOSYSTEM EXPANSION
THE MINE
EXPANDS.
The Gold Standard continues expanding within the StonkBrokers ecosystem and Anvil Market. Future development focuses on increasing holder utility, strengthening the mining economy, improving activation-based rewards and creating more value around activated NFTs.
The long-term vision is to build a community-driven gold mining economy where NFTs, GLD, Anvil Market, OpenSea activity, StonkBrokers LP, locked liquidity, rewards and burns all work together.
06 / RISK NOTICE
READ BEFORE
YOU COLLECT.
NFTs and digital assets are experimental. Their value may be volatile, liquidity may not exist and a purchase can lose all of its value. Wallets, smart contracts, third-party platforms, cybersecurity, regulations and taxes each add risk.
Do your own research. Never use money you cannot afford to lose. Consult independent legal and tax professionals for your jurisdiction.
