The first cycle at a slot and every cycle after it distribute slightly differently.
Cycle 1: 2 to upline, 6 to your wallet, 2 to your next slot, 3 to downline, 1 to recycle.
Subsequent cycles: 2 to upline, 7 to your wallet, 1 to the Royal Pool, 3 to downline, 1 to recycle.
What changed
The two payments that funded your next slot in Cycle 1 are no longer needed, because you already bought that slot. In subsequent cycles one of them is sent to your wallet instead, taking you from six to seven, and the other goes to something called the Royal Pool.
The Royal Pool
Where this comes from. The deck itself shows only that position 4 feeds the Royal Pool. Everything below is from a separate written explanation supplied by a programme member, not from the deck. It is more detail than the deck gives, and it is worth having, but treat it as a description from within the programme rather than something verified.
According to that explanation:
- The Royal Pool is coded into the smart contract, with no company handling it.
- Only slot 3 qualifiers receive from it.
- You must qualify by the 21st of the month. The contract produces the qualifier list and pays out on the last day of the month.
- Whatever the pool holds that month is shared among all slot 3 qualifiers for that month.
- Position 4 of your cycle is your contribution to the pool. After you have contributed it, the explanation says you then receive Royal Pool payments on your later cycles.
- The example given: at slot 1 there are 12 cycles, so after your position 4 contribution you would receive on cycles 2 through 12, which is 11 payments.
Contributing And Qualifying Are Two Different Things
These are easy to run together, so it is worth separating them clearly.
- Contributing happens automatically. Position 4 of every cycle after your first goes to the pool, at any slot, whether or not you have reached slot 3.
- Qualifying is what makes you a recipient. Reach slot 3 and meet the requirements by the 21st, and the contract includes you in that month's payout on the last day.
Qualification runs on a monthly cycle, so it applies to each month in turn. A member who contributes but has not yet reached slot 3 is not in that month's payout, for the straightforward reason that they have not qualified for it yet.
What this means in practice. At slot 1 and slot 2 your position 4 is flowing into the pool while you are not yet drawing from it. That is not a penalty, it is simply the order things happen in, and it makes reaching slot 3 the point at which the pool starts working in your favour rather than something you find out about later.
The one detail still unstated. The explanation says qualifiers must "meet the requirements by the 21st" without saying what those requirements are beyond holding slot 3. Worth asking, and it is a narrow question rather than an open-ended one. Everything else here is verifiable: the pool is on chain, so its wallet and monthly distributions can be inspected at bscscan.com using the method in Where the Money Actually Goes.
Recycling
The deck claims unlimited recycles and re-entries, and no expiration or freeze policy for slots.
Recycling means that when your matrix at a given slot fills, position fourteen automatically places you back at the bottom of a fresh matrix at that same slot, so the slot can pay again. This is what the deck means by continuous income. In principle a slot can pay you repeatedly rather than once.
Recycling is also why the deck can present a total larger than a single pass through the twelve slots. The Numbers covers that total and what it requires.
