Marketplace and Transfers
Rigs are tradable assets
Because every rig is backed 1:1 by its principal, a rig has a floor: the BAUD locked inside it.
Listing and buying
list(rigId, priceWei) cancelListing(rigId) buy(rigId)
Listing does not pause mining. An activated rig keeps mining while listed, and the activation carries to the buyer, so a bought rig can mine the same epoch.
Pricing intuition
A rig is worth at least its principal. Above that, buyers pay for what the principal alone does not give them: an already paid activation fee, accumulated rig age for bonus epochs, standing, and warm Tape reels.
Plain transfers
Rigs are ERC721. transferFrom works with any wallet or contract, no
marketplace required. Transferring does not disturb principal or reels.
What transfers with a rig
| Carries over | Does not |
|---|---|
| Principal, tier, activation | Assigned operator (resets to new owner) |
| Rig age and standing | Open leases (must be closed first) |
| Tape reels and versions | Unclaimed rewards (stay with the earner) |
