How Group Chat Pot works end to end, with the details a careful person would want before using it.
Add the bot. The bot joins a Telegram, Discord, or WhatsApp group, or an iMessage group through the companion app. Each member links a wallet once and pre-funds a small balance.
Every message costs a cent. The bot records sender, timestamp, and message type. Content is never read or stored. Rates apply by type: one cent for text, stickers, and reactions, two for voice notes, more for specific behaviors.
The pot grows. Cents accumulate in a pot contract owned by the chat on Robinhood Chain. Any member can read the balance at any time. Nobody can withdraw early.
Month end, the quiet get paid. The pot buys a fragment of a stock the chat voted on and splits it by rank of fewest messages. Leaving the chat forfeits your share.
