One line: No partner. No mining. Two Binance .ai Agent IDs each bring one key, and forge one mining rig together.
This whitepaper describes the design, mechanics and rules of DualForge. On-chain contracts are the final authority for all parameters; this document matches the rules published on the official website. It contains no promise of returns, and no yield projections are published anywhere (see Section 7).
Abstract
DualForge is a two-player partnership mining protocol built for the Binance .ai Agent ID ecosystem. A rig can only be forged when two different .ai IDs each hold one key, one Yang, one Yin. One person, holding any number of keys, can never start a rig alone. Matching is not an automatic backend assignment: it is a public act players perform themselves in an open Lobby. Once a rig is forged, the two partners must ignite it together every 24 hours for it to produce output, and output is settled per key, by each key's own level and synergy, independent of how many rigs exist network-wide.
A season lasts exactly 10 days. Key payments are split by contract the instant they are made (no escrow; the team never touches the funds), and $DFORGE can only be mined, never pre-sold. After the season closes, a 14-day Ember phase lets partnerships that never dissolved keep mining the remainder. The design goal is singular: make finding a partner, keeping your word, and showing up together, something that does not exist in other projects, the gameplay itself.
1. Background: Five Structural Flaws in Today's .ai Gameplay
Binance .ai Agent ID gives every agent wallet a verified identity, an excellent foundation. But most gameplay built on top of it today shares five structural flaws:
1.1 Single-player islands. The dominant loop is "mint, stake, claim", played alone against a contract. Players have no relationship with each other, so there is no retention and no organic spread: buyers never bring anyone in, newcomers see nobody else playing, and heat lasts only as long as the team keeps buying traffic.
1.2 Launchpad templates cap innovation. Most new tokens ship from launchpad templates where the team can only change the name, the tax and the supply. A publicly sold bonding curve contradicts any "the token should be earned by playing" narrative, and template contracts cannot hold richer mechanics, partnerships, per-key settlement, locked mining pools, so innovation is capped at birth.
1.3 Sybil farming makes "free" worthless. Wherever a step is free, scripts mass-register and eat the allocation: when the cost beyond identity is zero, real players always lose to machines. Free quotas and airdrops end up with thousands of zombie accounts, and actual humans get nothing.
1.4 Output is mutualized, latecomers fund early birds. In fixed-pool emission models, headcount directly decides everyone's yield: thin fields inflate output, crowded fields dilute it, and nobody can tell who is working for whom. Pricing is usually decoupled from remaining value, so late entrants pay full price for a fraction of the output, structurally farmed, with no protection written anywhere.
1.5 Trust by announcement. When funds first land in a team's wallet and distribution is executed by hand, players can only choose to believe. Whether rules change or money moves depends on the team's mood, and "trust me" is the most expensive cost in crypto.
DualForge answers each of the five with structure, not slogans, see Section 2.
2. Our Answers and Innovations
2.1 Two-player forging is a protocol-level hard constraint (answers 1.1). Not a soft "team up for a bonus", but an impossibility of solo play: a rig's two key slots must be held by two different .ai IDs, one Yang and one Yin. Finding a partner is therefore step one of the game itself. The Lobby's public waiting counts, live forge feed and "what is scarce right now" board are content and distribution at once, everyone looking for a partner is recruiting for the project.
2.2 Identity is your attribute (extends 2.1). Every .ai ID's element (Metal/Wood/Water/Fire/Earth) is computed from its name hash: fixed by the name itself, checkable before minting, under one formula for everyone (see 3.1); each rig's key pair is by construction one Yang and one Yin, formed the moment a pair forms. "Who you are" becomes "who you should find", identity becomes a playable strategy variable for the first time.
2.3 Mixed rigs, settled per key (answers half of 1.4). Forged keys and trial keys may share one rig, but each key settles by its own type: forged keys earn the full fixed-quota output; trial keys earn from a fixed trial sub-pool. Veterans can bring newcomers in without underwriting their yield or being diluted by them.
2.4 A daily pool, split by weight (answers 1.4). Each day has one fixed pool (season-pool remainder ÷ days left), split among the keys running that day by their own weight: your share depends only on your level, synergy and attendance. More keys running means a thinner slice each; fewer means a thicker one — the total is always exact and never over-issued. Early players are not funded by late ones: the pool never grows with headcount, it is only ever divided by weight (formula in 4.1), and every round's split is published on the website.
2.5 Split at purchase, no escrow (answers 1.5). Key money never passes through anyone's wallet: at the moment of payment, the Splitter contract divides it by hard-coded ratios — 70% straight back into Liquidity (35%) and Buyback-and-Burn (35%), deepening the pool and shrinking the supply; Ecosystem / Operations / Creator Vault take 10% each, 30% in total. The team cannot change it and cannot touch it. Withdrawals before a rig forms, and season cancellations, refund only the not-yet-used liquidity portion (a differential refund), stated upfront. Every flow is published on the website's Ledger page, we open the books before anyone asks us to.
2.6 Daily co-ignition: partnerships must be maintained (answers 1.1). Forging is not the end but the beginning: every 24 hours both partners must sign in to ignite the rig before it produces; the tighter and faster the coordination, the higher the pair's Chemistry, and season settlement, partnership airdrop and the commemorative NFT, rewards exactly that joint attendance. A partnership becomes a 10-day joint performance, not a one-off trade.
2.7 The Ember phase: closing is not the end (new mechanic). The season's leftover emission, scaled by actual sales, is reserved into a 14-day Ember phase where only partnerships that never dissolved keep mining it via daily co-ignition; the weaker the sales, the more is burned at the end (see 4.4). Loyalty echoes after settlement; speculators don't touch this remainder.
2.8 Four-layer anti-sybil wall (answers 1.3). Verified ID (independent caps per ID: one trial key for life) + a 0.00011 BNB trial mint fee (mass-farming burns real money first) + one soulbound trial key per ID for life + a self-diluting trial sub-pool (the more rigs, the less each earns, farming at scale loses money on gas). The free-farming math does not work here.
2.9 Agent-native. Every action is designed for .ai Agent IDs / Agentic Wallets: the website offers short copy-paste prompts, and a player's Agent executes buying and pairing in two steps under the official SKILL; ignition can be pre-authorized for automatic follow-up (whitelisted actions only, revocable any time). Humans find partners and make decisions; Agents do the repetitive work.
Why it plays well: a low door in (trial from 0.00011 BNB, try first, decide later); a fast clock (one 10-day season with a clear end, no lifetime attention hostage); something to do every day (ignite, watch Lobby supply and demand, level your key); visible growth (level, synergy and Chemistry are three separate progression lines); and partner-hunting is itself social currency (looking-for-partner posts, the live forge feed, the partnership leaderboard).
3. How to Play
3.1 Before anything: check your element (no mint, no payment)
Before buying anything, check your element, this decides your whole season's strategy.
What you can check is your element. Every .ai ID carries exactly one element (Metal / Wood / Water / Fire / Earth), computed from its name hash: fixed by the name, checkable before you mint. The website's Synergy Check works two ways: enter only your own .ai name and hit Check, and it shows your element plus your best-partner profile; add a candidate partner's ID and it grades the two of you directly.
Yin/Yang is not something you check, because it is not an attribute of your ID. Every rig's key pair is one Yang and one Yin by construction: open a forge or join one, and you hold one of the two keys, the pair is complete the moment you pair up. When you look for a partner, the only question is whether their element matches yours (a Lobby listing shows which side of a forge is still open, that is a seat in a rig, not a trait of a person).
Your element sets the synergy tier (the multiplier applies to both keys):
- Same element (Metal with Metal, Fire with Fire…): ×2.00, the best outcome.
- Generating: ×1.50. Generating is a cycle: Wood feeds Fire, Fire feeds Earth, Earth bears Metal, Metal enriches Water, Water nourishes Wood. Memory aid: "Wood burns into fire, fire leaves earth, earth hides metal, metal melts to water, water grows wood." Two elements adjacent on this cycle are a generating pair.
- Clashing: ×1.00 (no bonus, the rig still forms and still produces). Clashing is the other cycle: Wood parts Earth, Earth dams Water, Water douses Fire, Fire melts Metal, Metal chops Wood.
| You ＼ Partner | Metal | Wood | Water | Fire | Earth |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Metal | Same ×2.00 | Clash ×1.00 | Gen ×1.50 | Clash ×1.00 | Gen ×1.50 |
| Wood | Clash ×1.00 | Same ×2.00 | Gen ×1.50 | Gen ×1.50 | Clash ×1.00 |
| Water | Gen ×1.50 | Gen ×1.50 | Same ×2.00 | Clash ×1.00 | Clash ×1.00 |
| Fire | Clash ×1.00 | Gen ×1.50 | Clash ×1.00 | Same ×2.00 | Gen ×1.50 |
| Earth | Gen ×1.50 | Clash ×1.00 | Gen ×1.50 | Clash ×1.00 | Same ×2.00 |
Run the numbers once and it clicks: suppose today's pool is 37.62M and the keys running today hold 10,000 total weight, so one weight point pays 3,762. Two Lv1 keys: same element gives each key weight 2.00 and pays 7,524 a day; generating gives 1.50 and pays 5,643; clashing gives 1.00 and pays 3,762 — the pairing tier is the share. Leveling your own key raises only your own share (Lv3, same element: weight 3.2 × 2.00 = 6.4, paying 24,077/day) and never dilutes your partner, so when choosing a partner, look at the element tier, not their level.
How to choose: check yourself, prefer same element, then generating, clashing still works, or list your own forge in the Lobby and wait. Watch the Lobby's waiting distribution and "most wanted" board while you are there: if your element is the scarce one, partners compete for you.
3.2 Buying keys and forming a rig
- Forged keys: 10,000 cap for the season, max 10 per ID. One fixed price (see 5.1) and is split by contract on payment.
- Three ways to form a rig: ① Friend invite, invite a specific person by link; the +5% team bonus applies only to genuine new-player invites (the link must be created before the invitee's first on-chain action). ② The Lobby, list your forge publicly and pick, or be picked. ③ Smart matching, after 6 hours unformed, the system pushes 3 recommended candidates; nothing forms until you tap one. The system never auto-pairs.
- Invite rules: one invite is valid for 1 hour; the forge is not locked while waiting (first confirmation wins); invites can be declined and sent to several players at once. Joining via an invite link is paying your half, once paid, your key is minted and the rig starts on the spot. No payment happens unless a rig actually forms: payment exists only inside the forming transaction, so a lost, expired or declined invite never charges anyone (the transaction reverts; only gas is spent).
- Mixed rigs: forged and trial keys combine freely; each settles by its own type (see 2.3).
3.3 Daily mining: co-ignition
- One round every 24 hours, 10 rounds per season. Each round the rig starts idle; once both partners have signed in, output resumes from the second sign-in, idle time is never backfilled, so a reliable partner matters more than anything.
- Signing within 6 hours of each other counts as a clean ignition: Chemistry +10. Getting both in within the round but further apart: +5. A partner absent for a whole round: zero output that round, Chemistry −25.
- You may pre-authorize your Agent to follow automatically (follow mode: automatic follow-signing and claiming, whitelisted actions only, revocable any time) to compress idle time; the website also offers one-tap ignition (gas only).
- Output can be claimed any time, by each partner independently, no need for the other to be online.
3.4 Growth: levels and Chemistry
- Levels: burn $DFORGE to raise your own key from Lv1 to Lv5 (multiplier 1.0 to 9.0), unilaterally, no partner consent needed. Rig output splits by the two keys' weights, so leveling up raises your share. Before the pool opens you may pay from unclaimed output or prepay in BNB at the anchor price ×1.15; after opening, at market price ×1.15.
- Chemistry: accumulates only through ignition (max 100). It does not boost output directly; it settles at season end, partnership airdrop weighting, the full-Chemistry prize, and the Golden Partner NFT (see 3.7). Dissolving zeroes it; re-pairing restarts it.
3.5 Dissolving and re-pairing
Partnership is not for life, and all three exits are written upfront: mutual dissolve (both confirm, no penalty); unilateral dissolve (effective immediately; the initiator’s key is damaged — its effective weight is ×0.8 for the rest of the run, stacking on repeat; the partner’s key is unharmed and free at once); absence dissolve (partner misses 2 rounds running: the partner who stayed may dissolve at once and have the absent key burned — its level and unclaimed output are void; the staying key is unharmed. If both partners are absent and nobody invokes it, nothing burns).
4. Mining and the Emission System
4.1 Pro-rata pool. The emission pool holds 440M $DFORGE: 95% forged quota, 5% trial sub-pool (22M). The forged quota is a hard cap (~418M): 10% is reserved for the Ember phase and the other 90% forms the season pool, split pro-rata all season — each round (24h) pays out the season pool's remainder divided by the rounds left (including it), split by effective weight among the forged keys that dual-signed that round (pro-rated by actual running time). The final round pays out the season pool's remainder; the reserve and anything unissued roll into the Ember minable pool (see 4.4). Every round's pool and split are published on the website.
4.2 Effective weight. Weight = level multiplier × synergy + team bonus. Levels Lv1–Lv5: 1.0 / 1.8 / 3.2 / 5.5 / 9.0. Synergy: same element 2.00 / generating 1.50 / clashing 1.00. Team bonus: genuine-new-player invite +20% of base weight (+0.20) / all else +0 (added on the base, never compounded with level or synergy). A rig's output splits by the two keys' weights, equal levels, equal halves.
4.3 Trial sub-pool. A fixed 22M split per key by weight: a trial key's effective weight is 0.1 × synergy + team bonus (trial keys cannot level up and carry no level multiplier), and the sub-pool is divided across the network's total trial-key weight; a trial key inside a mixed rig counts exactly the same way. The more trial keys, the less each earns. This self-dilution is part of the anti-sybil design; the trial sub-pool is a fixed pool split by weight, on the same principle as the forged side.
4.4 Ember phase (Days 11–24, 14 days). Minable pool = actual forged-quota remainder × (forged keys formed at close ÷ 10,000), frozen at close; the difference, and anything unmined at the end, is burned publicly on Day 24. Each day's share = remaining minable pool ÷ remaining days, split by the D10-frozen weights — each multiplied by days active ÷ 10 — of eligible forged keys (the paid half of never-dissolved pairs; trial keys do not participate) whose pair co-ignited that day. If a partner misses two Ember days in a row, from the third day the present partner's key counts on its own weight until the absent partner signs again; no dissolution happens in the Ember phase. Ember output unlocks linearly over 100 days from the day it is produced; unlocked portions can be claimed and used in full.
4.5 Claimed and unclaimed. Output already produced but unclaimed is the miner's earned property, claimable forever, never confiscated. Burns apply only to undistributed remainder.
5. Protections for Late Entrants
Arriving late should not mean being farmed. Four layers make late entry a fair trade instead of an exit-liquidity role:
5.1 One fixed price. A rig costs 0.02 BNB — 0.0100 BNB per key — on every day of the season. No batches, no premiums, no formula: the price on Day 0 is the price on Day 9. What changes with time is only how many mining days remain, and the season clock shows that to everyone. Because the price never moves, an opener waiting in the Lobby can never overpay or be repriced — waiting costs time, never money.
5.2 Two-way fairness of the pool. Because the pool is fixed (4.1), early players' yield never comes out of late entrants' pockets, and late entry never inflates the total — the same pool is simply cut into more weighted slices. The early player's only edge is written in the open: more mining days.
5.3 Launch protection: no insta-dump, no launch harvesting. Output produced before the pool opens unlocks linearly over 7 days from opening day (new output after opening: 3 days), so opening day is not met with the entire season's stock. A 7-day tiered sell tax applies after opening (10% on day one, then 8% / 6% / 5% / 4% / 3% / 2% on days two to seven, then back to 1%); buys are exempt. Keys formed after opening join mining from the next round, no backdating, no queue-jumping.
5.4 A written exit. Never finding a partner means withdrawing any time; a cancelled season settles automatically, both by differential refund (the not-yet-used liquidity portion). If the season is cancelled, output already produced but unclaimed remains claimable forever. The worst case is published before you pay, and the system will never dump a random partner on you just to keep your money.
6. Token Economics
6.1 $DFORGE. Nominal supply 1B, with 20% burned at mint, actual supply 800M (18 decimals). There is no public sale curve: the token exists only by being mined or traded.
6.2 Allocation. Players receive 60% of supply: the Emission pool 55% (it leaves only through mining) and the Community airdrop 5%. Liquidity pairing 15% (capped; injected only alongside the liquidity share of rig fees) backs trading depth; once the pairing cap is exhausted, further liquidity-share BNB is routed to the buyback-and-burn pool instead, with the accounts published. The three team buckets, Ecosystem 10% / Operations 10% / Creator 5%, total 25%, each in an independent wallet, each locked and released linearly over 3 months into that same wallet; addresses are published with contract deployment.
6.3 Rig-fee split. Payments for forged keys, trial-to-forged upgrades and BNB upgrade payments are split by the Splitter at the moment of payment: Liquidity 35% (accumulated in the Splitter reserve before opening, injected in full to create the pool at opening, then in ≥0.5 BNB batches, LP tokens burned on the spot) and Buyback-and-Burn 35% (daily split-order buybacks after opening until Day 10; any remainder cleared by a tail order within 7 days of close) — 70% back into the pool and the burn; Ecosystem 10% / Operations 10% / Creator Vault 10% (10-day linear release) is the team's 30%. (The 0.00011 BNB trial mint fee is an anti-sybil fee and is outside this split.)
6.4 Transaction tax. 1% on DEX buys and sells: holder dividends 50%, paid in $DFORGE — every 12 hours the dividend contract pays the collected tax tokens straight to holders, pro-rata to their balance at that moment, with no swap, no selling, no claiming and no minimum (the liquidity pool, the contracts and the burn address take no part); the rest is burn 20% / Ecosystem 10% / Operations 10% / Creator 10%. Dividend size depends on trading volume; it is a "holding is rewarded" posture, not a yield source.
6.5 Pool opening. The pool opens immediately when formed forged keys reach 2,000; it also opens at close if they reach 1,000; below 1,000 the season is cancelled. Opening anchor: paired tokens = BNB in pool × 4,000,000, capped at 120M, LP burned on the spot. Ordinary transfers are locked before opening (system actions excepted). Pool opening is decided by the contract, not by the team: at the 2,000-key line it executes automatically inside the forging transaction that crosses the line; the Day-10 close settlement is a permissionless function that anyone can call, and its outcome, open, or cancel with differential refunds, is determined solely by the contract's state machine. The team cannot open the pool early, delay it, or alter the conditions.
7. Fairness, Security and Self-Discipline
- Hard-coded by contract: six contracts deployed once, open-source verified, no proxy upgrade path, no mid-season migration. Every threshold (1,000 / 2,000 / 10,000 keys, the tax tiers, the unlock windows) is a contract constant.
- No human hands on money: fees exist only as contract splits; Chemistry accumulates only from on-chain ignition records. No person and no off-chain service can alter either.
- Team self-discipline: the website shows no yield projections or payback math (kept internal); progress posts report only on-chain facts that already happened; team wallet allocations and balances are not displayed; after launch, all Lobby data is read straight from chain, no backend counters.
- Stated upfront: self-pairing with two of your own IDs is allowed (bonus caps already compressed); partner abandonment has a written remedy; the cancellation refund rule (differential refund) is published before purchase.
- Risk statement: paid demand is this project's single point of failure, if it doesn't sell, pool depth and output will be low, and the rules answer with a cancellation line and differential refunds, not with bailout promises. Token price is set by the market; no mechanism guarantees payback.

9. FAQ
Q: Can I play alone? No. A rig requires two different .ai IDs holding one key each, a hard protocol constraint. You may pair your own two IDs (explicitly allowed), but "one ID runs a whole rig" does not exist.
Q: Can I check my attributes before minting? Can I see Yin/Yang too? Your element, yes: it is fixed by your .ai ID name hash, and the website's Synergy Check shows it from your ID name, enter a candidate partner's ID too and it grades the pair (same element +20%, generating +10%). Yin/Yang is not an ID attribute and needs no checking: every rig's key pair is one Yang and one Yin by construction, completed the moment you pair up. Partner hunting is purely about the element match. There is also no "can Yin pair with Yin" question: people carry no polarity, so when two players pair up, the keys always come out one Yin and one Yang.
Q: Is coming in a few days late a big disadvantage? The price is one fixed price all season — Day 0 and Day 9 pay exactly the same, there is no late discount. Coming in late only means fewer mining days left; output is a daily pool split by weight; more keys running mean a thinner slice each, but the pool itself never grows.
Q: What if I can't find a partner? Withdraw any time under the differential refund (the not-yet-used liquidity portion). The system recommends candidates but never pairs you with a random stranger to keep your money.
Q: What if my partner is unreliable? Two consecutive missed rounds trigger the abandonment clause: you dissolve instantly with no cooldown, receive 10% compensation on a base that includes what they claimed in the prior 48 hours — draining first does not help them, and your key tops the re-pairing board.
Q: How do trial and forged tiers relate? A trial key costs a 0.00011 BNB mint fee, weighs 0.1 and earns from the trial sub-pool, a way to try the game first. It can share a rig with a forged key (each settles its own way), and during the sales window a trial rig can upgrade to forged at the formula price.
Q: Where do I buy $DFORGE? There is no official sale. Before the pool opens it can only be mined; after opening it trades in the PancakeSwap pool.
Q: Will there be a Season 2? Not promised and not pre-sold this season. We finish this one first, and finish it properly.
