ARTIST COMPENSATION TEMPLATE

Date: December 1, 2025 Artist: Bruck’lyn (Joern) Contact: Instagram DM Transaction: “Moonshot” music license for Kickstarter campaign video
COMPENSATION PACKAGE
| Component | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Cash Payment | $500 | Licensing fee (83%+ to artist = ~$415+ after platform margin) |
| Credits | 100 | Full platform value, immediate utility |
| Joules | 100 | Stored value at founding rate (forever stamp) |
| Marks | 0 | Not granted — Marks emerge from differential, not gifts |
| Medallion | FC-047 | Founder’s Circle ownership stake |
Total Value: $500 cash + 200 currency units ($200 equivalent) + medallion ($100 ownership value)
Effective Compensation: ~$800+ for saying yes first
WHY THIS STRUCTURE
Cash ($500)
- Industry-standard licensing consideration
- Immediate value the artist can use anywhere
- Demonstrates we pay real money, not just platform currency
Credits (100)
- Full platform access
- 5 Credits = annual membership (95 remaining)
- Can spend on marketplace, projects, voting
- Immediate utility
Joules (100)
- Recognition of contribution at founding moment
- Locked at December 1, 2025 rate
- If platform grows 10x, these Joules still convert to 100 Credits
- But those 100 Credits are now worth 10x more externally
- Forever stamp reward for being first
No Marks
- Marks carry “debt” connotation
- Granting Marks as gift = “here’s debt to work off”
- Let Marks emerge naturally from differential mechanism
- Credits + Joules = pure value, no psychological burden
Medallion (FC-047)
- Ownership stake in Liana Banyan
- Governance rights
- Dividend eligibility
- Proof of founding participation
- Physical + digital artifact
