Cashing out

The Gold Exchange

The Gold Exchange (slave.fund/exchange) is the only place where the gold in your master's purse meets the $SLVE token on Solana. It's a real market — prices move every time anyone trades.

How the price moves

There's a single pool holding both $SLVE and gold reserves. Buy gold and you're taking gold OUT of the pool, putting $SLVE IN — gold gets rarer, the next person pays a touch more. Sell gold and the inverse. This is the same constant-product math (x·y=k) every AMM uses on Solana, just running server-side until our $SLVE token launches.

A 2% fee on each side stays in the pool. Over time the reserve deepens and slippage shrinks.

Reading the ticker

  • The two big boxes at the top are marginal rates — what a tiny trade would clear at right now.
  • The pool depth row above them tells you the actual reserve. Larger pool = more stable prices.
  • Max trade is hardcoded to 10% of the pool per swing — keeps any one whale from emptying the pool in a click.
  • Green ▲ / red ▼ on the active rate shows the direction since the last tick.

Buying gold

You sign in with Privy, pick a gold amount, confirm. Your master's purse jumps by the gold amount instantly. Once the $SLVE token is on Solana, the $SLVE side will settle on-chain at the same time. Until then it's simulated — the reserve still moves so the rate moves, but no token leaves your wallet.

Selling gold

Same flow, opposite direction. The gold leaves your purse, $SLVE flows your way at the current rate. The receipt at the bottom of the page shows exactly what you got and your new balance.

NoteBig trades pay worse rates than small ones — that's slippage, not a bug. Split a 50,000g sell into a few smaller chunks and the round-trip cost drops.
