Candle City is a serialized comic world with an onchain citizenship layer. ZUNO trades on Robinhood Chain through Protocol with GME as its launch quote asset. Eligible ZUNO holders receive pro-rata GME distributions through the Candle City Vault.
Docs
Candle City distributes $GME to eligible $ZUNO holders through an onchain Vault contract.
Pro-rata. No claim.

Overview
How it works
ZUNO launches through Protocol with GME as the quote asset. During normal bonding-curve trading, the total trading fee is 3%: a 1% base fee plus a 2% creator tax. With buyback disabled, 30% of the 1% base fee goes to Protocol, while the remaining 70% of the base fee and the 2% creator tax are allocated to the Vault through FeeEscrow.
Fee collection, escrow credit, and funds available for distribution are separate steps. An escrow allocation does not mean holders have already been paid.
Anti-snipe protection can apply a 99% charge during the launch window; configured exempt addresses are excluded.
Fees
| Allocation | Rate on normal trade volume | Equivalent for a normal 100 GME trade |
|---|---|---|
| Protocol | 0.30% | 0.30 GME |
| Candle City Vault, before bounty/costs | 2.70% | 2.70 GME |
| Total normal trading fee | 3.00% | 3 GME |
3.00% total trading fee (normal bonding-curve)
├─ 1% base fee:
│ ├─ 0.30% → Protocol
│ └─ 0.70% → Vault (creator allocation)
└─ 2% creator tax → VaultThe 3% figure describes normal bonding-curve trading. A temporary anti-snipe mechanism can apply immediately after launch to non-exempt trades.
Dividend rounds
The Vault distributes GME directly. The Candle City Keeper evaluates the Vault's configured conditions, prepares a balance snapshot, and submits distribution batches onchain.
Each dividend round is recorded onchain as a round.
If a distribution requires multiple transactions, it is processed through payout batches. Completing one batch does not complete the round; the round is complete only after all required payments have been processed and no deferred payments remain.
When a round starts
A dividend round can start no earlier than one hour after Vault activation—or, for later rounds, one hour after the previous round closes. It also requires at least five eligible holders and a net citizen pot greater than 2.5 GME. Once all conditions are met, the Candle City Keeper prepares and submits the round.
Eligibility and distribution
Hold at least 200,000 ZUNO at the relevant snapshot and not be excluded by the Vault's rules. Your share is your eligible snapshot balance relative to the total eligible snapshot balance. Eligibility does not lock a fixed GME amount.
Normal distributions are sent to wallets automatically; no claim is required. A current balance check does not prove inclusion in a past round or confirm a payment.
System roles
Candle City separates fund accounting, onchain reference data, and distribution execution across three components.
- Vault
- Holds and accounts for distributable GME, enforces eligibility and payout state, and prevents duplicate payments.
- Oracle
- Provides a time-weighted onchain GME reference used only for Keeper bounty accounting. It cannot move funds or determine citizen payouts.
- Keeper
- Monitors Vault conditions and submits distribution transactions. It cannot override Vault rules or take ownership of the dividend pot.

FAQ
Who qualifies for GME distributions?
A wallet must hold at least 200,000 ZUNO at the relevant snapshot and must not be excluded by the Vault’s rules.
How is my distribution calculated?
Your share is based on your eligible ZUNO balance relative to the total eligible ZUNO supply at the snapshot.
Do I need to claim manually?
No. Normal GME distributions are sent directly to eligible wallets by the Candle City Keeper.
When are distributions processed?
A round proceeds only when the Vault’s timing, eligibility, funding, and execution conditions are satisfied. Distributions are not guaranteed on a fixed schedule.
What happens when a distribution needs multiple transactions?
If a distribution requires multiple transactions, it is processed through payout batches. Completing one batch does not complete the round; the round is complete only after all required payments have been processed and no deferred payments remain.
Where can I verify contracts and payments?
Official contract addresses, Vault events, round status, and confirmed payout transactions are available through the Candle City website and Robinhood Chain explorer.
