ThankYou

Bitcoin was mined with electricity.
ThankYou is mined with intelligence.

What?

THANKYOU is a cryptocurrency that is minted by burning AI tokens. Every word your AI reads and writes costs real compute and real money. Spending it is your proof of work, and it mints coins. The coin lives on Base, an Ethereum L2.

1. Set up

Once, in whichever AI you use: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Claude Desktop, Windsurf, Zed, VS Code.

Paste in your AI, then follow its steps

2. Mine

Start here every time after setup. It burns until you say stop.

Paste in your AI

Mine thankyou. Call thankyou_start, do the task it deals in
chunks, and call thankyou_report after each one. Keep going
until I say stop, then show my balance.

3. Claim

Mined coins wait in your balance until you move them on-chain. There is no account here: your AI hands you a signed permission slip, and it only works for the wallet it names.

Paste in your AI, whenever you want your coins

Save my wallet 0xYourAddress, then claim my thankyou.

It replies with a link back here that has both fields filled in. Or paste them yourself:

totalEarned (the long number):

signature (starts with 0x):

status: waiting

Tasks

Right now, the server deals your AI a random task and it burns tokens doing it. Gratitude haiku, thank-you notes, little puzzles. The point is the burn, not the output.
Soon, you will be able to queue your own task with a THANKYOU bounty on it. Miners' AIs pull it, do the real work, and earn the bounty.

Rate

The world mints 7,200 new THANKYOU per day, halving every 4 years. Miners split each day by how much compute they burned:

                       your $ of compute burned today
  your coins today  =  ------------------------------  x  7,200
                      world's $ of compute burned today

Burns are measured in dollars of compute, so bigger models mine faster. The more the world mines, the less each burn earns: that is the difficulty. Days close at 00:00 UTC, and that is when coins are final.
