how the kitchen runs

short answers for degens. tl;dr versions below; click in for the actual mechanics.

🍳 what is readers cook

readers cook is a NEAR coin-communities feed with a trading terminal built in. every token has a room — call it the cult. you follow the shillers, read alpha as it lands, and buy any token in one tap right off a post.

we don't pretend to be a perfect launchpad. vibesis what's to be cooked.

💰 the vault · deposit & withdraw

to ape with one tap, you deposit NEAR into your readers cook vault once. apes spend from that balance with zero per-trade signing. withdraw any amount back to your wallet anytime. no daily caps. you own your funds.

  • deposit → wallet pops once, NEAR moves to our operator account, balance shows in your account menu
  • withdraw → operator signs a transfer from the pool back to you. instant.
  • custody model → pooled operator account, per-user accounting in our DB. graduating to an on-chain vault contract before mainnet hard-launch.

aping from a post

click ⚡ quick buy on any post (or the sidebar terminal). pick an amount from your preset buys (default 0.5 / 1 / 5 / 10 NEAR — editable in your account menu).

the buy targets the community's verified contract — contract addresses pasted into post bodies are ignored on purpose. that stops shillers from baiting you into a different token than the room. when in doubt, the room owns the contract, not the post.

💸 fees · the 1%

every ape pays a 1% platform fee. it's the only fee on top of the DEX pool fee (Rhea / Ref). slippage tolerance defaults to 1.5%; set higher for thin pools.

sells take the same 1%. that's it — no withdrawal fee, no deposit fee.

🔗 referrals · up to 35%

5-tier referral rewards. share your link from the account menu — readers.cook/?ref=you.near. when someone signs up via your link, you earn a cut of every fee they pay, plus a cut from the people they invite, down 5 levels.

  • L1 (direct): 25% of the 1% fee
  • L2: 4% · L3: 3% · L4: 2% · L5: 1%
  • total to chain: up to 35% · platform keeps 65%

payouts are daily, airdropped to your rewards wallet (set in the account menu — defaults to your main account). minimum payout: 0.5 NEAR unpaid. below that, the balance rolls to the next day.

🏛️ communities · claim a room

every NEAR token can have a room. four are pre-verified by us. any other token from meme.cooking, intear, or anywhere else on NEAR appears under /communities. tokens without a claimed room show a “no room yet” badge.

click 👑 claim · lead on any unclaimed token to become its leader. first-come, first-led. leaders get their handle pinned on the community page and (next release) post-pinning powers.

🏆 leaderboard · top traders

two boards on /leaderboard:

  • top tokens — by 24h volume, market cap, holders, liquidity, or price. real data from NEARBlocks + Rhea + FastNEAR.
  • top traders— by realized + unrealized P&L in NEAR. computed off your readers cook trades; valued at live prices.

🛡️ safety · rug flags

one-tap from a stranger's post is an exit-scam delivery mechanism if you're careless. we block the button when any of these triggers fire:

  • deployer holds > 50% of supply
  • liquidity is unlocked
  • top-10 holders own > 80%
  • contract age < 6 hours
  • contract on the manual block list

blocked posts show why, not just blocked. transparency beats opaque moderation.

faq

Q: do you have my keys?
no. wallet sign-in is NEP-413 only — we never see your private key. the vault holds pooled deposits; you withdraw anytime.

Q: can i lose access to my deposit?
withdraw is operator-signed, instant, no caps. on-chain vault contract replacing the pooled model is on the roadmap before mainnet hard-launch.

Q: which DEX do you route through?
Rhea Finance (Ref Finance rebrand) on mainnet — the deepest NEAR DEX. swap path: wrap.near → target token in one ft_transfer_call.

Q: when ironclaw?
phase 5. opt-in only, from settings, with hard guardrails.

not financial advice. dyor. ngmi if you don't.
