Rules
No auction. No countdown. You pay, you hold a square, it fades.
How a square works
Spend from $1. Your share is your spend over everyone’s live spend. When somebody else buys, the wall resizes — they get a slice sized to what they paid. You are not buying a fixed size, a duration, or a deposit you can withdraw. The share in the buy panel is this wall at this moment. Checkout charges the dollars you chose; the square that lands is whatever that money is worth when it lands.
The map compresses the difference between shares and gives tiny squares a minimum footprint so every square stays visible. On-screen area is a visual ranking, not an exact percentage. The number on a square is its share, printed without rounding up, so the labels can add to a hair under 100%.
Clicks never change area. History never fades — you lose prominence, not the record.
The cap
Nobody can erase the wall. With two squares the largest is 60%. That tightens as more squares arrive, and from 16 squares on it is 10%.
You can still spend past the cap. Extra dollars do not grow the tile — they keep you at the cap when others buy. The first square is the whole wall at any price, so $1 is enough until somebody else shows up.
What actually fades
Every 14 days, live spend is half — if nobody buys. That is how hard you are to knock down, not a countdown on the square. Positions fade together, so the wall stays still until somebody pays. New money changes the wall immediately, and old money is easier to beat.
You are alone.
You pay $10,000. A month later you still hold 100%. The dollars listed as live have dropped. The square has not.
The wall stays quiet.
You and somebody else both pay $10,000 the same day. Two weeks later you still split the wall 50 / 50.
Someone matches you later.
You pay $10,000. Two weeks later they pay $10,000. Their money is fresh; yours is half. They would take two-thirds — the cap stops them at 60%.
A cheaper attack after you age.
You pay $10,000. Two weeks later they pay $5,000. Same live dollars, so you split the wall. On day one that $5,000 would have left them the smaller square.
You pay past the cap.
You already hold the largest the wall allows. You pay more anyway. The square stays the same size. The next buyers have to add more before you shrink.
That is why the same dollar amount can preview a slightly larger share while you wait: the existing pool got cheaper. A new purchase usually makes that preview smaller.
What is not allowed
Squares go up as soon as you pay. These come down: sexual content, chat and invite links, malware and scams, and link shorteners. Report them to holdit-lol@alexandremarques.io.
