Standing.
Standing is a record of participation, read from on-chain activity over the run. It expires each run.
It is a status and reputation signal, measured from what you do on-chain during the current run.
The run
Time is measured in weekly seasons called the run. The run is the trigger the rest of the system measures against: the live receipt and the counters reset and report against it. Cadence is weekly by default, with operator-set special runs for tentpoles.
| Object | What it is |
|---|---|
| The run | The weekly season. The clock everything measures against. |
| The standing sheet | The record of participation over the current run. |
| The split counter | A live counter of fees split on-chain over the run. The pool's share stays in the hook. |
Why it expires
Standing decays each run by design. A weekly expiry keeps the metric a measure of current participation rather than an accumulating balance. It also caps how much switching cost reputation alone can build.
What standing is A status read from on-chain activity over the current run, that resets when the run ends.
