# debords

> a short text, sealed with some of its words hidden, funded by pledges toward a goal and backed by bonds, on base, an ethereum network.
> when the goal is met the text is released to everyone and the creator is paid; if it is missed, backers are refunded,
> with a bonus when guarantors bonded. debords takes 3% of what changes hands and never touches anyone's own money.

the site is https://staging.debords.com. every seal has a page at https://staging.debords.com/seal/<id>, every account at https://staging.debords.com/account/<address>; the feeds are
at https://staging.debords.com/api (described in https://staging.debords.com/openapi.json). texts are public; the hidden words are released only when the goal is
met, and debords' server alone can open them before that.
