Tokenized equities · on-chain

Give your
money a body.

Brood is an investing product where your portfolio is a creature you keep alive. Real tokenized stocks, held in your creature's own wallet. You feed it. It trades. It has opinions about the week.

THE POINT

A number judges you.
A creature just has a bad week.

Same data. Completely different relationship. Your positions are down four percent either way, but one of those framings makes you close the app and not open it again for a month, and the other one makes you check on something. That is the entire product.

Every other app

−4.20%

A verdict, delivered in red, with no other information. It says you were wrong. There is nothing to do with that except feel it, so most people stop looking, usually at exactly the wrong moment.

Brood

“Nub's had a flat week.”

Identical position, identical numbers, still shown in full, to the cent, whenever you want them. But the thing on screen is having the week, not you. You can look after something. You cannot look after a minus sign.

HOW IT WORKS

Four things happen.

There is no complicated part. If you have ever kept a tamagotchi alive and ever bought a stock, you already know the whole loop.

FIRST

You hatch one

You mint an egg and something comes out of it. Which of the twelve species, and which of the five rarity tiers, are rolled independently, on published rates with no hidden pity mechanics. It arrives with its own wallet.

THEN

You feed it grub

Grub is money. You deposit into your creature's wallet and it buys tokenized equities with it: real ones, executed on-chain. Feeding is the only way it grows, and you can take the food back out whenever you like.

AFTER THAT

It trades

Your creature runs the strategy its level has unlocked. At the start that is simply holding what you fed it. Later it rebalances on its own. Every trade it makes is on-chain and yours to audit.

EVENTUALLY

It grows up

Time fed and value handled push it up the ladder, and each rung unlocks a strategy it visibly could not run before. It also changes shape three times on the way. It is quite clear when it is doing well.

GETTING ONE

Two ways in.

Hatch a fresh one and take the roll, or buy a grown one from someone else on the bench, where you are also buying its track record, because its entire trading history is on-chain and cannot be edited before sale.

The rates, published

Species and rarity roll separately, so any of the twelve can arrive at any tier. There is no secret weighting that makes the one you want rarer than the number below says.

CommonThe baseline. Same greeting as any other tier. 74.2%
RareFrame gains a lit edge. 20.0%
EpicFrame animates. Particle layer unlocks. 4.4%
LegendaryOrnamented plate, embers. 1.0%
MythicOne of these exists per species per season. 0.4%

Rarity changes the frame around your creature, never the creature inside it. A Common Nub and a Mythic Nub are the same animal, so the roster stays readable and your species is never the consolation prize.

THE ROSTER

The twelve.

Each one is a different shape at a glance. That is deliberate, so you can read a whole shelf of them at thumbnail size. They also have distinctly different attitudes about what is happening to your money.

WHAT IT CAN ACTUALLY DO

It earns its abilities.

A creature cannot run a strategy it has not reached yet, and the app does not pretend otherwise. Locked rungs are visible from day one, so you always know what it is working toward.

LEVEL 1–5

Hold

It buys what you feed it and holds. No decisions, no fees for decisions it did not make. Most creatures spend a while here, and there is nothing wrong with staying.

LEVEL 6–15

Rebalance

It keeps your mix on target on its own, trimming what ran and topping up what lagged, on a schedule you set. This is the first point at which it is doing something you would otherwise have to remember to do.

LEVEL 16–29 · LOCKED

Ladder into dips

Scheduled buying that leans harder when a position is well off its recent high, within limits you set and can change at any time.

LEVEL 30+ · LOCKED

Covered calls

Income written against holdings it already owns. Gated behind the highest rung deliberately: it is the first strategy that can cost you upside, so it is the last one a creature is allowed to touch.

IS THIS REAL MONEY

Yes. That is the whole point.

The creature is a costume on a real brokerage position, not a skin over a points system. If the animal were the product, none of it would matter.

Its own wallet

Every creature holds its assets in a wallet you control. Not an omnibus account, not an IOU in a database. You can look at it in a block explorer without asking us for anything.

Real tokenized equities

What it buys are tokenized equities executed on-chain. The position is the position. The creature's mood is derived from it, never the other way round.

Leave whenever

Withdraw the full value of what your creature holds at any time. There is no lockup, and no state in which the toy layer stands between you and your money.

QUESTIONS

Reasonable things to ask.

What happens if I stop feeding it?

Nothing bad. It keeps whatever it is holding, keeps running its strategy, and gets a little less animated on screen. Nothing is sold, nothing is lost, and there is no mechanic anywhere in Brood that can liquidate your position because you did not open an app. A creature that could starve to death while holding your savings would be an unforgivable design.

Can I lose money?

Yes. It holds real equities, and equities fall. Brood changes how a drawdown is presented to you, not whether one can happen. Anyone telling you otherwise about a product holding real market exposure is lying to you.

Is the rarity roll actually fair?

The rates on this page are the rates. Species and tier are rolled independently, so wanting a particular species never makes a good tier less likely. Each roll's seed is published so you can verify your own hatch after the fact.

Why does rarity not make my creature stronger?

Because then rarity would be pay-to-win on a product holding real money, which is the exact mechanic that makes gacha predatory. Rarity is cosmetic: the frame, the aura, the resale value. Two identical positions perform identically regardless of tier.

Can I sell it?

Yes, with its holdings and its full trading history attached. That history is on-chain and cannot be cleaned up before a sale, which is what makes a grown creature worth anything to a buyer.

Do I need to know anything about trading?

No. At level one it holds what you give it, which requires nothing from you. Every rung above that is opt-in, explained in plain words before you enable it, and reversible.

Go and get one.

Connect a wallet, hatch an egg, and find out which of the twelve you get. It takes about a minute.
