# Token Economy

Reincarnatiopedia uses a token-based paywall that rewards both readers and content creators.

## Token Pricing

| Action                       | Tokens            |
| ---------------------------- | ----------------- |
| Welcome bonus (registration) | +5                |
| Daily login bonus            | +1 to +3 (random) |
| Read short article           | -3                |
| Read full session transcript | -5                |
| 1 token                      | \$0.10            |

## Subscription Plans

| Plan | Price     | Tokens/month |
| ---- | --------- | ------------ |
| Free | \$0       | Bonuses only |
| Plus | \$4.99/mo | 50           |
| Pro  | \$9.99/mo | 150          |

## Creator Revenue

Content creators earn from every article read:

* **First 100 sales**: 90% to creator
* **After 100 sales**: 70% to creator

## Referral System

* Each user gets a unique 8-character referral code
* Cookie-based tracking
* Referral rewards on registration

## Technical Implementation

* **Database**: Separate `tokens_db` (users, transactions, earnings, access)
* **Cache**: Redis-backed balance lookups (`rp_tokens:` prefix)
* **Enforcement**: Server-side paywall — no client-side bypass possible
* **Architecture**: WordPress mu-plugin, auto-loaded on all 200 sites
