What the account does with your leaves

Three services, priced separately, settled in the currency you are least able to produce.

I

Interbank rates on bamboo

A red panda must consume roughly 4 kg of leaves a day to remain solvent. We have made that a currency pair. SHOOT/LEAF settles at the mid-market rate Monday through Friday and carries a 0.4% spread on weekends, when the forest is closed.

II

Territory verified by scent

Mark the perimeter of your range and we hold the boundary on file. Where two accounts overlap, the range is awarded to whichever marked most recently. Re-verification is required every 40 days, and immediately after rain. Rain is not a supported dispute reason.

III

The Metal card, milled from one billet

Stainless steel, 47 grams, brushed on both faces and engraved with your range coordinates. That is roughly 0.8% of your body weight, which is roughly the reason no Metal card has ever been recovered from a canopy. Replacements are 3 shoots.

03

From the register of account holders

Statements collected during re-verification. Reproduced without correction.

“I moved 4 kg of leaves into shoots on a Tuesday and the rate held all afternoon. By Wednesday I could not find the tree. The rate still held.”

“Scent verification failed twice because it rained. Wah reclassified my range as contested and awarded it to my sister, who does not use the app. I have written a letter.”

“The Metal card is exquisite. It is at the bottom of a ravine. I think about it during the eleven hours a day I am asleep.”
