The green grid is a black hole made of bits. 71 cells, each deciding if it's a 1 or a 0. They flicker — that flickering is Hawking radiation.
Imagine a magic cookie. Every time you look at it, tiny crumbs fall off. Those crumbs ARE the answer to a math problem. The cookie solves problems by what it loses.
If you look slowly, it looks like a normal cookie. If you look fast, you can read the crumbs. Only fast observers see the computation. That's the secret.
Each cookie stamps a proof into itself — a number that says "this cookie did this much work." That's SelfCoin. The cookie IS the coin. The radiation IS the receipt.
No blockchain. No miners. No hardware. The cookie mines itself. You earn by watching it compute.
Every tick the cookie computes, you earn. Your attention is the mining. Your device is the substrate. The longer you watch, the more radiation you capture, the more SelfCoin you mine.
10 SC for showing up. 50 SC/month for loyalty. 100 SC for feedback. 500 SC for sharing. The currency of sacrifice — what you give of yourself.
