Immutable Commitments for Sunshine Coin

Hard-Capped Supply

Sunshine Coin has a fixed supply. Only 20 million SUN will ever exist, written immutably into the smart contract. No inflation. No dilution. Clear minting rules that make every coin more valuable as adoption grows.

Transparent Contract

Our smart contract is 100% transparent, publicly verified, and upgrade-proof. The rules are fixed, supply is capped, and all actions are logged transparently on-chain. There are no upgradable modules, stealth functions, or hidden backdoors.

Minting

Sunshine Coin is built on scarcity, fairness, and transparency. To protect the integrity of the project and create long-term value, all future minting is governed by a strict set of rules that are public, immutable, and enforced by code — not discretion.

The total supply of Sunshine Coin will never exceed 20,000,000 SUN. This is hard-capped at the smart contract level. At launch, exactly 2,000,000 SUN (10%) were pre-minted to a public wallet called the House Reserve, used to support liquidity, ecosystem development, and operational stability. This wallet is fully viewable on-chain.

The remaining 18,000,000 SUN will not be released arbitrarily. Instead, they are unlocked gradually over time — only when real demand justifies it and strict on-chain rules allow it. Every mint begins off-chain but must adhere to the hard-coded annual cap and include a public justification string referencing the OMQ formula. This ensures transparency and accountability without introducing the risks of automated smart contract failures.

Sunshine Coin follows a “no stealth mint” policy. There are no backdoors, admin keys, or upgrade paths in the contract. All minting logic is encoded on-chain and cannot be changed after deployment. This makes Sunshine Coin a truly permissionless and fair system.

To prevent supply flooding the market, the maximum number of coins that can be minted in any calendar year is 1,000,000 SUN. This hard ceiling is enforced in the smart contract. Even if demand surges, the protocol will never mint more than this limit per year.

Mints do not happen monthly by default. Sunshine Coin is not a “scheduled emission” token like many other projects. Instead, mints are on-demand only, triggered by usage, adoption, and organic purchasing pressure. No demand? No minting.

A new mint is triggered only when 85% of the public liquidity pool is depleted. This means 85% of the SUN available on decentralized exchanges like Uniswap or BaseSwap has been purchased by the public. This ensures that new supply is introduced only when market inventory is running low.

Once this threshold is hit, a new mint will be triggered. While protocol doesn't enforce a 24-hour window, we commit to initiating mint events quickly and transparently whenever the rules permit. The amount of coins minted is determined by the OMQ formula — not guesswork or human discretion.

This formula is called the On-Demand Mint Quantity or OMQ. It dynamically calculates how many coins should be minted based on recent on-chain activity and current liquidity conditions. At a minimum, the formula always mints at least 1,000 SUN, unless the annual cap has already been reached.

On-Demand Mint Quantity or OMQ Formula

The OMQ formula uses four primary variables:

These inputs are weighed and combined to calculate an appropriate mint size. For example, more unique buyers and higher transaction counts lead to a higher mint, while a low remaining pool balance increases urgency.

The logic is designed to favor organic demand, not manipulation. The weight given to unique wallets and real transactions ensures that mints are triggered by participation.

If no one is buying or using the token, the system does not mint. This built-in resistance to inflation ensures that coin issuance remains tightly coupled to real-world utility and market adoption, not speculation or schedule.

Every single mint — including quantity, timestamp, and block number — is recorded on-chain and fully transparent. Anyone can verify the logic, see the wallet flows, and monitor how much SUN has been minted so far. Nothing is hidden.

The result is a minting system that is transparent, predictable, and fair. No centralized team can bypass the rules that are bound by transparent supply logic and on-chain limitations. No mint can occur unless demand has been publicly demonstrated. This protects the value of SUN and builds trust in the project long-term.
