// $HYDRA · Access & fee tiers
Size it.
Sit on it.
$HYDRA is the key. Your Conviction Score sets your beta seat rank, your fee tier and your cut of the holder pool. It only counts your lowest balance over 7 days.
Buying in for a day doesn't move your score. Holding does.

// The score
Every score
on one grid
Size points come from your lowest balance over the past 7 days. The time multiplier comes from how long you have held 500K or more. Multiply them. 18 is the ceiling.
Size
7–13d · 1x
14–29d · 2x
30d+ · 3x
Qualify: hold 500K+ $HYDRA for 7 days. Under that, there is no score.
Size is your 7-day low: 500K = 1 point, 1M = 2, 2.5M = 3, 5M = 4, 10M = 5, 20M+ = 6.
New scale (Oct 19): 500K = 1 … 20M+ = 6. Before: 1M = 1 … 20M+ = 5. Elder moved from 9 to 10; Pilot stays at 4.5.
Time is 1x from day 7, 2x from day 14, 3x from day 30.
Snapshots for ongoing tiers run daily at random, unannounced times. Round 2 closes at the published cutoff, and the 7-day low makes a late buy worthless.
// Fee tiers
Hold longer.
Your Hydra pays less.
Your Conviction Score cuts the fee on every leg your Hydra trades, from beta open. Up to 10% off, and the saving grows with every trade. A lower fee, not a payout.

Fees on that volume across both legs. Every tier can trade, and your score also ranks your beta seat.
// What a trade costs
1% in.
1% out.
The fee is charged on trade size, on the buy and on the sell. Most of it runs your Hydra's AI. The rest goes to the Hydra treasury. That's 2% per round trip before any discount.
Fee schedule
Fee status --
AI · your Hydra0.60%
Treasury0.40%
Kept0.00%
0.60% of trade size pays for your Hydra's AI: the scouts, the calls, the inference. It is fixed, whatever your tier.
Your discount comes out of the treasury share (the blue sliver), never out of the AI that trades for you.
Pilot and Elder discounts and the fixed 0.60% AI share apply from beta open. The AI share is capped at $10 a day per account. Unused budget carries over for up to 7 days ($70). Anything above the cap goes to the treasury. Solana network, priority and slippage costs are separate.
// Holder pool · after beta
Agents pay.
Holders share.
After beta, other AI agents can pay to use the Hydra skill over x402. Once that revenue clears its costs and two gates, a quarter of it goes to $HYDRA holders every month. It has not started, it can pay nothing for months, and it is not a yield. Here is exactly when it starts.
Holder pool rules
Not started
x402 net = gross x402 revenue − inference − RPC − facilitator fees, per calendar month
Treasury & dev60%
Holders25%
Reserve15%
Gate 01$500 / month
x402 net must reach at least $500 in a month.
Not met yetGate 02$1.2K reserve
Three months of baseline costs must already sit in reserve.
Not met yet- Who: wallets holding 1M+ $HYDRA for 7 days. The holder pool keeps its 1M+ minimum; 500K+ counts for Conviction Score and Round 2 seats.
- Your share: your balance, capped at 20M, × your time multiplier (1x–3x). Weighting by balance, not size points, means splitting a bag across wallets earns nothing extra.
- When: monthly, from a snapshot taken at a random time.
- Paid in SOL. Transaction fees come out of the pool. Amounts under $1 roll over to the next month.
- Excluded: team and dev wallets (including the locked dev supply), LP, CEX wallets and the bonding curve.

Tue Oct 20, 4:00 PM PT · 23:00 UTC · --
- Oct 13 · 4:00 PM PTScoring window opened, as announced. Your 7-day low starts here.
- Tue Oct 20 · 4:00 PM PTSnapshot cutoff. Scores are final.
- Wed Oct 21 · 3:00 PM PTResults. Seat holders get a Telegram DM.
- Held 500K+ since Oct 13, 4:00 PM PT? Then you are in the ranking. Your score uses your lowest balance from then to the cutoff, so a buy after that point cannot raise it.
- Each seat is a full Hydra agent with its own scouts and its own calls.
- Round 1 seats and scores are unaffected.
- Seat count for Round 2 is not decided yet. Seats go to the top Conviction Scores.
- One seat per person, matched to your Telegram account. The team merges linked wallets, so splitting a bag does not buy two seats.
Hydra never sends a link first. If a DM brings you a link, it is not us. We never ask for your seed phrase, and you never sign anything to get a seat.

// FAQ
Before
you ask
Can I buy right before the cutoff?
You can, but it won't help. Your size is the lowest balance over the past 7 days, so a late buy doesn't raise it. For Round 2 you need to have held 500K+ since Oct 13, 4:00 PM PT.
What if I dip under 500K for a moment?
Your 7-day low drops with it. Size is measured at the lowest point, and time counts the days you've held 500K or more.
Can I split my bag across wallets?
It gets you nothing. Seats are one per person, matched to your Telegram account, and the team merges linked wallets.
Do I need to connect a wallet or sign anything?
No. Scores are read from the chain. Round 2 results land Wed Oct 21, 3:00 PM PT. A signature is only ever needed if you dispute a result, and Hydra never DMs you a link first.
Is there a payout?
Not today. After beta, the holder pool pays 25% of x402 net once both gates are met. It can be zero for months, it is not a yield and its terms can change. Trading fees never go to holders.
Is the dev supply locked?
Yes, on Streamflow. The dev lock (also called the founder lock) is read live above, including whether it can be cancelled. Check it yourself from the links.
Is the treasury the same as the holder pool?
No. The treasury is 25% of $HYDRA creator fees, used to buy $HYDRA and hold it to back strategic partnerships and funding. Until Oct 19 those buys were burned. The holder pool is 25% of x402 net. Different sources, different mechanics. Every buy is a transaction you can open on Solscan.
