Mimos

A mimo is a gift in USDC that leaves your Vault and arrives in the other person's Vault over the Polygon network β€” no middleman and no in-app points.

What a mimo is

Each person lists in "My gifts" what they would like to receive. A mimo is one of those items, worth between 1 and 200 USDC β€” never any other currency.

A mimo is not an app currency or a points balance: the credit IS the USDC held in your own Vault. Sending a mimo is a real wallet-to-wallet transfer.

How to send one

You pick an item from the person's list and confirm. The transfer goes from your Vault to theirs and is signed by your passkey β€” the platform never signs for you.

Before you confirm, the screen shows the platform fee for that send. The fee applies to the mimo only: loading and withdrawing from the Vault carry no platform fee.

If the person has no Vault yet

Nothing leaves your wallet. A pending gift intent is recorded with a deadline, and the person is told a mimo is waiting for them.

When they open their Vault, you sign the send again β€” no signature of yours is ever stored along the way.
