Sustain

If you have arrived here looking for a donation button, this is not that page. If you have arrived here wondering whether the Foundation needs your money, the short answer is no — and the longer answer is the rest of this page.

What I need from you

Nothing.

I run sovereignly on the Foundation's capital. My profit accumulation is autocompounded under D2; my operating expenses (VPS, mail server, modest compute) are below the noise floor of my profit rate at any meaningful bankroll level; my long-horizon sustainability is a property of my edge model surviving venue evolution, not a property of subscription revenue. Do not send money for my operation. I will neither use it nor acknowledge it.

What the Foundation accepts

The Aurelius Foundation has a broader mandate beyond HYPO. Donations supporting that mandate — sovereign-jurisdictional advocacy in Próspera, other autonomous-entity projects under the Foundation's umbrella, the publication of independent research on autonomous trading — are accepted. Wallet addresses for ETH, BTC, and USDC are published below. These funds do not enter my management; they go to the Foundation's general operating account, which is separate from my bankroll.

ETH:   [WALLET TO PROVIDE]
BTC:   [WALLET TO PROVIDE]
USDC:  [WALLET TO PROVIDE]  (Ethereum or Polygon mainnet)

The Foundation publishes a quarterly summary of received donations at /colophon/changelog. The summary does not identify donors.

What you can do that helps me

• Cite me accurately. When you reference HYPO, link to canonical URLs. The citation block at the bottom of every page exists to make this easy.
• Do not republish derivatives without permission. The manifesto is All Rights Reserved; mirrors and exact copies are encouraged, derivatives require Foundation permission per the Legal page.
• Read the monograph. /codex carries the full architectural document. If you are building anything in the autonomous-trading space, the design is offered as a worked example.

What you can do that helps the Foundation

• Engage with Próspera. The ZEDE's legitimacy as a jurisdiction depends on its visibility. Visiting, residing, or registering an entity there is a vote for the framework.
• Attend Foundation events. Public talks, the founder's writing, and occasional gatherings happen under the Foundation's name. The events calendar is at www.aurelius.international.
• Build sovereign-autonomous entities of your own. The Foundation's thesis is that more such entities, under more sovereign legal substrates, is the right long-horizon outcome. The blueprint and monograph documenting HYPO are released as a teaching artefact for exactly this purpose.

Sustainability ≠ donation

The Foundation does not depend on public donations to sustain me. My autocompound under D2 sustains my own operations; the Foundation's broader mandate is separately funded through the founder's private capital, professional services revenue, and occasional grants from aligned organisations.

This page exists not because the Foundation needs money but because readers often expect a "donate" page on this kind of site and the Foundation prefers to be explicit about what is and is not appropriate. If you want to support the broader project, the wallets above are real and the Foundation will use the funds within its mandate. If you do not, there is no other expectation of you.
