The story, in six chapters.

Chapter one

One traffic light.

Sam grew up in a town with one traffic light, one field and one dream: to make it through football. Every evening he kicked a ball against the grain barn until the whole street knew the sound.

The barn still has the marks.

Chapter two

Captain.

The ball got him a place at the university. His teammates gave him the armband, and then a name: CapSam. Confident, funny, loyal to a fault, and the calmest man on any pitch.

Cap = captain. For now.

Chapter three

The final.

This season the team made the biggest final in school history. Win it and they qualify to play internationally. Back home, his family, his old coach, his friends and every kid on his street are watching.

One degree. One final. One shot.

Chapter four

The letter.

Then the letter came. Sam is academically ineligible. Unless he completes the requirements for his degree, he cannot play in the final. Without him the team is expected to lose, and the one shot at going international goes with it.

NO $DEGREE. NO FINAL.

Chapter five

The procrastinator.

On the pitch nothing rattles him. In an exam hall everything does. He has known about this exam for months. He has studied for it for eleven minutes. He was always going to start tomorrow.

Tomorrow is today.

Chapter six

The exam.

He cannot sit this one alone. His town is behind him, his team is behind him, and now so are you. The paper is on the desk. Pick up the pencil.

Turn the page, Classmate.

Chapter six, continued

Final exam.

Pass the exam. Play the final.

Official transcript · $DEGREE on pons

How far $DEGREE is from graduating.

On pons, a token graduates when its bonding curve sells out: 4.2 ETH raised. This is that number, read live from Robinhood Chain.

Credits required
4.2 ETH
Credits earned
0.0 ETH
Left to graduate
4.2 ETH
Status
Not launched yet
Not a price history. This is the shape of the pons curve itself, from its own maths (a 1.68 ETH virtual reserve, graduation at 4.2 ETH, read on chain 2026-09-28). The cap sits where the chain says $DEGREE is, at the start until launch. It moves up with every buy and down with every sell.

Not launched yet: 4.2 ETH to go. It goes live the moment $DEGREE launches.

Graduation on pons is not a grade. It only means the curve sold out: $DEGREE then moves to a Uniswap pool with its liquidity locked for good. It says nothing about value, and nothing on this page says it will happen.

His study hours went parabolic.

One semester, day by day. Months of nothing, then everything at once. Drag across it to read his diary.

Day 120: 23.5 hours. 23.5 hours. The other half hour was the exam.

Not a price chart. Sam's study hours, made up for the story.

Every trade pays 3%. This is where it goes.

Creator tax, all to the creator

Set once at launch and fixed for life. Every number here can be checked on chain.

  • Snipe tax. For the first few seconds after launch, pons adds a snipe tax to buys. It starts at 99% and falls to zero within seconds. It joins the trade fee and is split the same way, so the creator earns from it too.
  • Supply. 1,000,000,000 $DEGREE, all of it in the pons bonding curve at launch. No team allocation and no presale: any $DEGREE the creator holds was bought on the curve, like everyone else's.
  • Graduation. If the curve sells out (4.2 ETH raised), $DEGREE moves to a Uniswap pool whose liquidity is locked for good. That says nothing about value. It only means the curve sold out.

Enrollment, in four lessons.

Buying is enrolling. Only spend what you can afford to lose.

  1. Add Robinhood Chain to your wallet

    Any wallet that supports custom networks works. Follow the official guide, or add it by hand:

    Network name
    Robinhood Chain
    RPC URL
    https://rpc.mainnet.chain.robinhood.com
    Chain ID
    4663
    Currency symbol
    ETH
    Block explorer
    https://robinhoodchain.blockscout.com
  2. Get ETH on Robinhood Chain

    Bridge ETH over from another network. The official bridging guide lists the routes.

  3. Open $DEGREE on pons

    The link goes here the moment $DEGREE launches. Copycats can show up after a launch, so always match the contract address.

  4. Buy

    Connect your wallet, enter an amount and confirm. Every buy and sell pays the 3% above. At launch, give it a few seconds: buys in the first seconds pay a snipe tax that starts at 99%.

Class rules.

  1. Holders are Classmates. Nobody takes attendance, and nobody is owed a grade.
  2. Only spend what you can afford to lose. This is a meme about a man who studied for eleven minutes.
  3. Watch your inbox. Nobody from $DEGREE will DM you first, and no real site or wallet will ever ask for your seed phrase.
  4. No cheating. The creator does not fake the crowd: no bundled wallets, no wash trades, no paid shills.

The class meets on X @Capsamcoin.
