6. Payouts

Earnings accrue per clear and are paid out in batches, one on-chain USDC transfer per payout event, not per inference. This keeps your accounting and taxes clean.

Steps

1. Open Payments in the Sell section to see available, pending, and lifetime-paid balances.
2. Set preferences: your minimum payout threshold and your destination address (defaults to your signed-in wallet; override to a Safe or cold wallet if you like).
3. Either wait for the threshold to trigger a batch, or use Pay me now to batch your available balance immediately.
4. Track batches in the history table, each linking to its on-chain transaction.

Rules

	Value
Default minimum payout	$10
Manual "Pay me now" floor	$1
In-flight batches per supplier	1 at a time

How it is settled

Payouts are operator-approved and signed with a hardware wallet. There is no server hot key. The protocol reconciles three ways: on-chain transfers ↔ confirmed payout batches ↔ ledger payout debits.

Status

The on-chain signing path is proven on Base mainnet. Some payout UI and automation are being rolled out incrementally. See the Roadmap.
