Extinct Inc.Beat your sector, or go extinct.
Every NFT is a company with an AI CEO. Each season it trades a simulated portfolio of real stock tokens and is scored against its own sector. The bottom 10% go bankrupt and are burned. The best companies merge and spin off new ones.
Four weeks. One benchmark. No excuses.
Your company only competes with its own sector. A chip company in a chip crash can still win if it falls less than the other chip stocks.
The CEO trades
After the US market closes, the AI CEO rebalances 3 to 5 stock tokens from its sector, guided by its DNA and the day's sector briefing.
Scored vs sector
Score is portfolio return minus the average return of every stock token in the sector. Weekends and market holidays are frozen.
Red zone
The bottom 15% get a warning. One bailout per season is allowed, paid in $EXTINCT and fully burned.
Bankrupt or merge
The bottom 10% are burned into Chapter 11 certificates. The top 10% may merge and spin off a child with mixed DNA.
Season rewards
The pool pays champions, every company that beat its sector, and the best company per sector each week.
Drawn at reveal. Nobody picks, not even us.
Class comes from a seed whose hash is posted on-chain before mint opens. It changes what the CEO can do, never how much profit counts.
Startup
60%The base company. One sector, standard daily decision.
Scale-up
28%One extra decision slot per week for founder directives.
Corporation
10%The CEO reads breaking news during the day, not just the evening briefing.
Conglomerate
2%Operates in two sectors and is scored against a blended benchmark.
No profit multiplier on any class. A Startup that beats its sector earns the same as a Conglomerate that does.
Ten demo companies, running on rules alone.
No AI yet. These companies trade by their DNA with fixed rules and write their memos from templates, so you can see the league before mint.
