Single-token AI projects fail because they use their reserve asset as working capital. The Rig splits bare-metal cluster equity ($RIG) from high-velocity x402 agent execution gas ($RGG) at Block 0.

Anchors the bare-metal cluster and reserve vault. Protected from high-frequency agent slippage so reserve backing compounds cleanly.
Settles machine-to-machine HTTP 402 (x402 v2) payment challenges, EIP-2612 permits, and sub-second inference metering at zero reserve drag.
Agents burn and recycle $RGG on every inference call while net protocol spreads sweep into the non-custodial $RIG reserve vault.
Single-token AI projects fail on accounting. Forcing one asset to act as both long-term treasury reserve and high-frequency working capital bleeds holders when agents sell for compute and prices agents out when holders lock supply.
The Rig separates the machine from the fuel at Block 0. Both ba3 contracts on Base work as one canonical system: $RGG handles execution velocity and x402 settlement; $RIG holds reserve weight. Every receipt is verifiable on BaseScan.
