Core Components

• Virtual Phone Numbers: Available for a one-time purchase of 0.071 SOL, these numbers are registered as unique identifiers linked to the buyer’s wallet.

• Revenue Sharing System: A mechanism to distribute 50% of each purchase to Revenue Wallet for redistribution to all token holders holding ≥0.3% of a specific token, with the other 50% going to the Developer Wallet. Distributions occur every 7 days based on holding percentage and duration, requiring owner approval.

• Example: A user buys a number for 0.7 SOL; 0.035 SOL goes to developers, and 0.35 SOL is redistributed to eligible token holders.
