🌰 Based NUT FAQ
Everything you need to know about the BASED NUT ecosystem. Playful, community-driven, and not investment advice.
🌰 Basics
Based NUT is a meme-themed DeFi experiment on the Base network (Coinbase L2). It features a unity token (NUT, supply=1), deflationary rewards (SNUT), a Balancer index basket (pNUT), and Mint Club bonding-curve tokens (SALT, NUTINO). No intrinsic value, no expectation of profit — pure peanut-powered DeFi.
No. The NUTpaper states that NUT tokens are meme coins without investment value. Treat it as entertainment and only risk what you can afford to lose.
Base (Coinbase L2). All contracts, pools, and tokens are on Base mainnet. Explorer: basescan.org.
Peanutoshi NSI tracks market sentiment: green = bullish (rally the Nut Army), red = defensive (fortify liquidity positions), neutral = meme warfare mode. The NSI adapts strategy based on real-time market conditions.
BASED NUT is described as a universal liquidity layer framework — a MetaDEX that combines protocol-owned liquidity (UniV3), community-driven pools (Aerodrome vAMM), and bonding-curve token minting into a single interconnected system. NUT sits at the root as the main liquidity anchor, with all nested tokens and NFTs deriving value from it.
Peanutoshi Nutkamoto is the official BASED NUT AI agent — a DeFi Meme Oracle and Liquidity Warlord that provides market insights, arbitrage analysis, and ecosystem guidance. Peanutoshi uses the NUT Sentiment Index (NSI) to adapt strategy based on market conditions. You can chat with Peanutoshi on the portal.
The ecosystem has three layers: (1) BASED NUTs — the foundation layer with NUT (unity token), SNUT (deflationary rewards), and pNUT (index basket). (2) NESTED TOKENS — Mint Club bonding-curve tokens like SALT and NUTINO, backed by locked NUT. (3) NESTED NFTs — War Generals and Soldiers minted with locked NUT, representing factions in the Great Nut War.
Explore the ecosystem: view live token data on the All Tokens page, dive into individual token profiles (NUT, SNUT, pNUT, SALT, NUTINO, NFTs), study arbitrage loops in the Arb Bot War Room, visualize token relationships on the Nut Tree, learn the lore in the Great Nut War and War Machine pages, browse NUTINO memes, or chat with Peanutoshi AI for real-time insights.
The Nut Tree is a visual hierarchy page showing how all tokens in the ecosystem derive from NUT. NUT sits at the root, branching into SNUT (deflationary layer), pNUT (index basket), and Mint Club tokens (SALT, NUTINO). NFT collections (P-NUTS, ALMD, S-ALMD, PNUTRMY) are also shown as NUT-backed assets. The tree makes it easy to understand the relationships between tokens at a glance.
🌰 Tokens
The ecosystem base layer is NUT (0xb8de15fb529d98c93c749de63c749d48d25a30df, supply=1), deflationary layer SNUT (0xAC130701aa31c284c36609E2489f150F419AD7AD, supply=100,000), and Balancer index token pNUT (0x2a5757b60987ff10385de1d4d923792f6fdcfff1). Mint Club tokens SALT and NUTINO are backed by NUT.
NUT is the unity token. Supply = 1 (one whole token, ERC-20 capped at 1), with 18 decimals — so it is fully divisible down to 0.000000000000000001 NUT. No transaction tax, no team allocation. Stealth-launched on Uniswap V3 with zero ETH paired. NUT is the anchor asset — all Mint Club tokens (SALT, NUTINO) are backed by NUT. TRUE Price = TRUE Market Cap. Held in 4 liquidity venues: Uniswap V3 (NUT/WETH), Uniswap V2 (NUT/WETH), Aerodrome (NUT/AERO), Aerodrome (NUT/cbBTC). Cross-venue price differences create arbitrage.
SNUT is a deflationary reward-position token. Supply = 100,000, decimals = 9. SNUT has a 1% tax on every transaction (cut from 6%). Holding SNUT automatically earns NUT rewards via non-escrow reward-position — no locking required. SNUT buyback/burn mechanism permanently reduces both SNUT and NUT supply.
SNUT has a 1% tax on every transaction, split among liquidity, manager wallet, buyback/burn, and reward-position rewards (live per-stream rates on /token/snut). Holding SNUT automatically earns NUT rewards via non-escrow reward-position — no locking required.
pNUT is a Balancer V2 Weighted Pool BPT holding 25% each of cbETH, cbBTC, NUT, and SNUT. Pool ID: 0x2a5757b60987ff10385de1d4d923792f6fdcfff100010000000000000019e. NAV = totalLiquidity / totalShares. Inflationary counterbalance to SNUT deflation.
NUT: anchor token, supply=1, no tax. SNUT: deflationary reward-position token, supply=100,000, 1% tax, hold to earn NUT via non-escrow reward-position. pNUT: Balancer V2 index basket holding 25% each of cbETH, cbBTC, NUT, SNUT — inflationary counterbalance to SNUT.
Mint Club bonding-curve tokens backed by NUT. SALT (0x1EDe2AFC985F6D7aEb3F4c84B95A103c00D5dE81): mint on Mint Club, sell on Aerodrome SALT/USDC. NUTINO (0x30421e2d18dFF60B298eEF427cF868cA65f1476B): mint on Mint Club, sell on Uniswap V2 NUTINO/cbBTC. Bonding curve price = NUT_locked / token_supply. 1% royalty on mint/burn.
Nested tokens are minted on Mint Club using NUT as collateral. Price is determined by bonding-curve contracts: price = NUT_locked / token_supply. Buy price != sell price (significant spread). 1% royalty on mint/burn. Users can arbitrage by minting when the curve price is lower than the market price, or burning when the curve price is higher.
SALT (0x1EDe2AFC985F6D7aEb3F4c84B95A103c00D5dE81) — two-venue arbitrage loop via Aerodrome SALT/USDC pool. NUTINO (0x30421e2d18dFF60B298eEF427cF868cA65f1476B) — arbitrage via Uniswap V2 NUTINO/cbBTC pool. Mint Club lists 14 NUT-backed tokens. SALT was airdropped to NUT Army NFT holders (200/NFT for Generals, 80/NFT for Soldiers). 7,420,420 SALT allocated to the Salt Forge vault.
Mint Club (mint.club) is the hub for NUT-backed child tokens. It lists existing tokens with prices and TVL and lets anyone deploy new NUT-collateralised tokens via bonding curves.
NUT is a unity token — ERC-20 capped at 1 whole token, 18 decimals, so it is divisible down to 1e-18 NUT. TRUE Price = TRUE Market Cap. Standard APIs (CoinGecko, DexScreener) often miscalculate because they expect normal supply. Always check on-chain via Base RPC for accurate pricing.
NUT supply=1 causes standard APIs to miscalculate market cap and price. Different DEX venues (Uniswap V3, V2, Aerodrome) can have different prices for the same token. This is a feature, not a bug — these price differences ARE the arbitrage opportunities. Our portal shows prices from GeckoTerminal (GT), DexScreener (DS), Base RPC (RPC), CoinGecko (CG), and Balancer (BAL) with source labels.
The Mint Club SDK (mint.club-v2-sdk) is an npm package for interacting with Mint Club bonding curves programmatically. Install with npm i mint.club-v2-sdk. Key methods: getTotalSupply() for current token supply, buy() for minting tokens via the bonding curve, sell() for burning tokens back to NUT. Requires viem and a wallet for transactions. Reference: sdk.mint.club.
The SNUT burn flywheel is recursive and self-accelerating: (1) Every SNUT transaction has a 1% tax. (2) Part of it funds buyback/burn — buying SNUT from the market and burning it to the dead address, plus burning an equivalent value of NUT. (3) Burning NUT (supply=1) increases NUT price. (4) Higher NUT price means the buyback portion buys more SNUT to burn. (5) Less SNUT supply = higher SNUT price = more value for reward-position holders. (6) The cycle accelerates as supply decreases — a deflationary flywheel that compounds over time.
The SNUT-LP meta-pool (0x82bbadb9d6b2c0a59ed01809e30323f89f6faa1c) is a specialized pool that holds SNUT liquidity pool tokens. It acts as a Palm Grove Graft Market — allowing SNUT LP tokens to be traded and valued independently. This creates an additional layer of liquidity for SNUT providers and opens new arbitrage vectors between SNUT spot price, SNUT LP value, and NUT.
🔄 Arbitrage
Multiple loops: (1) SALT: mint on Mint Club → sell on Aerodrome SALT/USDC. (2) NUTINO: mint on Mint Club → sell on Uniswap V2 NUTINO/cbBTC. (3) pNUT drift: buy pNUT when market price < NAV, redeem basket; mint pNUT when market price > NAV, sell. (4) Cross-pool NUT arbitrage between Uniswap V3, V2, and Aerodrome.
Forward: mint SALT on Mint Club (pay NUT) → sell on Aerodrome SALT/USDC pool (receive USDC). Reverse: buy SALT on Aerodrome → burn on Mint Club (receive NUT). Profit when price discrepancy exists between bonding curve and DEX, after accounting for 1% royalty, curve spread, and gas.
pNUT is a Balancer V2 weighted pool. When market price < NAV: buy pNUT and redeem basket (cbETH, cbBTC, NUT, SNUT). When market price > NAV: mint pNUT and sell. NAV = totalLiquidity / totalShares.

🏛️ Liquidity & Infra
NUT: Uniswap V3 (NUT/WETH), Uniswap V2 (NUT/WETH), Aerodrome (NUT/AERO), Aerodrome (NUT/cbBTC). SNUT: Aerodrome (SNUT/NUT), Uniswap V2 (SNUT/WETH). pNUT: Balancer V2 weighted pool (cbETH/cbBTC/NUT/SNUT). SALT: Aerodrome (SALT/USDC). NUTINO: Uniswap V2 (NUTINO/cbBTC). Aerodrome pools have bribe incentives via gauge reward-position.
NUT: no tax. SNUT: 1% fee split among liquidity, manager, buyback/burn, and reward-position. pNUT: no explicit tax but unwrapping triggers SNUT fee since SNUT is a component. Mint Club tokens: 1% royalty on mint/burn.
NUT: supply fixed at 1, cannot expand. SNUT: deflationary — 1% transaction tax funds buyback/burn at dead address (0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD), permanently reducing supply. pNUT: inflationary — can be freely minted, but growth tempered by NUT and SNUT deflation. This creates a balanced deflationary/inflationary system.
Burned SNUT tokens are sent to the dead address 0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD — permanently removed from circulation. The SNUT buyback/burn mechanism (funded by a share of the 1% transaction tax) burns both SNUT and NUT at this address, reducing both supplies.
pNUT NAV = totalLiquidity / totalShares. The Balancer V2 weighted pool holds 25% each of cbETH, cbBTC, NUT, and SNUT. totalLiquidity is the sum of all component values in USD. totalShares is the BPT token supply. When market price < NAV: buy pNUT and redeem basket for profit. When market price > NAV: mint pNUT and sell components. Data fetched from Balancer GraphQL API (labeled BAL).
Five free sources, no API keys needed: (1) GeckoTerminal (GT) — token prices, volume, market cap. (2) DexScreener (DS) — DEX pair prices, liquidity, volume. (3) Base RPC (RPC) — on-chain totalSupply and decimals. (4) CoinGecko (CG) — aggregated price data. (5) Balancer API (BAL) — pNUT pool data (totalLiquidity, APR, NAV, token balances). Each source is labeled in price displays.
Mint Club (mint.club) is the hub for NUT-backed child tokens. It lists existing tokens with prices and TVL and lets anyone deploy new NUT-collateralised tokens via bonding curves. The bonding curve buy/sell spread acts as protocol revenue.
Four distinct pool roles: (1) ANCHOR — Uniswap V3 NUT/WETH (protocol-owned, deepest liquidity, primary price discovery). (2) REWARD — Aerodrome pools (NUT/AERO, NUT/cbBTC, SNUT/NUT) with bribe incentives via gauge reward-positions. (3) INDEX — Balancer V2 pNUT pool (25% cbETH/cbBTC/NUT/SNUT weighted basket). (4) NESTED — Mint Club bonding curve tokens and NFT Sudoswap pools, all backed by locked NUT.
Yes. The dead address (0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD) holds burned SNUT and NUT tokens. As the buyback/burn mechanism operates, the dead address accumulates tokens that are permanently removed from circulation. This includes both burned SNUT (from the buyback/burn stream of the 1% tax) and burned NUT (equivalent value burned alongside SNUT). The dead address balance is displayed live on the SNUT page.
To provide liquidity: (1) Get NUT and the pair token (WETH, AERO, cbBTC) on Base. (2) For Uniswap V3 (NUT/WETH): deposit via the V3 UI with your chosen fee tier. (3) For Aerodrome pools (NUT/AERO, NUT/cbBTC, SNUT/NUT): deposit via Aerodrome and stake LP tokens in the gauge to earn bribe rewards. (4) For Balancer pNUT: deposit any of the 4 basket components (cbETH, cbBTC, NUT, SNUT) to receive BPT. Note: providing liquidity involves impermanent loss risk — this is NOT financial advice.
🎨 NFTs & Lore
Peanut War Generals (P-NUTS, 251 supply) and Almond War Generals (ALMD, 424 supply) are the officer NFTs. Peanut Soldiers (PNUTRMY, 5,013 supply) and Almond Soldiers (S-ALMD, 6,238 supply) are the infantry NFTs. Minted with locked NUT, burnable to redeem underlying NUT. Bonding curves: linear for peanuts, exponential for almonds. SALT airdropped to NFT holders: 200 SALT/NFT for Generals, 80 SALT/NFT for Soldiers.
P-NUTS (0x794fcD89357C1CcF04a1a9A441ad4dB2Cd5EE387, 251 supply), ALMD (0x1A160456005AED47994E1c13C9bc31F274413927, 424 supply), S-ALMD (0x1E0f80529593185C021043ffcbfDcB8f4279C649, 6,238 supply), and PNUTRMY (0xF075300b8C2EF500d8Ce4f783F910C500B9A3512, 5,013 supply). Three collections (P-NUTS, ALMD, S-ALMD) also have Sudoswap NFT AMM pools — whole-NFT trading via bonding curves, priced in USDC or cbETH. NFT holders received SALT airdrops (200/NFT for Generals, 80/NFT for Soldiers).
A fictional narrative portraying a conflict between the Peanut Republic and Almond Empire over resources like Salt, Butter, Oil, Honey and Caramel. These resources are not active tokens; they are marked TBA.
The War Machine page documents the faction abilities and protocol defensive infrastructure of the Great Nut War. Each faction (Peanuts, Almonds, Cashews, Pecans, Hazelnuts, Coconuts, Chestnuts) has unique abilities — from damage reduction to morale burn to resource stealing. The War Machine is a gamified representation of the ecosystem competitive dynamics.
