FAQ

OTEC is a reward token tied to our Substack membership model. As a paid subscriber, you receive a one-time airdrop of OTEC directly to your Base wallet. This reward recognizes your early support and aligns you with the “Own The Economy” vision.

The first 100 paid subscribers get 250 tokens — sent in OTEC straight to your Base wallet. No minting, no gas fees, just clean alignment. The 100 reserve must be met to be sent.

To claim, you’ll fill out a form on the claim page of our site that asks for your Substack email and your Base wallet address. Once verified as a paid subscriber, your wallet will be queued for the airdrop.

Each subscriber is eligible for one airdrop only, regardless of how long they remain subscribed. This keeps the distribution fair and manageable, and helps preserve long-term value.

OTEC is on the Base network — a fast, secure Ethereum L2. The token is currently listed on Alien Base, a premier decentralized exchange in the Base ecosystem.

OTEC is a great introduction to DEX trading. You can trade as little as 1 USDC on Alien Base and learn how decentralized exchanges (DEXs) work. It’s not a meme coin — it’s your first step into real Web3.

Use our Verify Tool on our claim page to verify you received the airdrop in your wallet — just replace the wallet address in the URL. You’ll see if and when OTEC was sent.

While each wallet is only rewarded once, early supporters may receive bonus airdrops later on. Stay subscribed and check our updates on Substack.

When we reach milestones like 100, 250 paid subscribers, etc., we add more liquidity to the OTEC pool. This strengthens the token, rewards holders, and helps set the stage for listings on other DEXs like Aerodrome.

In the future, we’re opening a Creator Membership Program, allowing aligned creators to use OTEC behind their own paywalls. This builds a broader creator economy with shared incentives.

Some tools flag projects where one wallet holds a large percentage of the supply. In OTEC’s case, that’s intentional: token reserves are held to reward paid subscribers and grow liquidity gradually over time. There are no backdoors, and our contract is verified. The structure is about alignment, not hype.

10M Total Supply. 50K was allocated to our pool on Alien Base.

We are currently listed on Alien Base, one of the top DEXs on Base Blockchain. 

Just submit your email and Base wallet address on our claim page. If you’re a paid Substack member, you’ll automatically be placed in the airdrop queue.

Any wallet that supports the Base chain works — like Coinbase Wallet, Rainbow, or MetaMask. Be sure to connect it to the Base network.

You can trade OTEC on Alien Base, one of the leading DEXs on the Base chain. Just connect your wallet, swap USDC, and you're in.

Alien Base is a decentralized exchange (DEX) built on Base. It lets you swap tokens directly from your wallet without needing a centralized platform.

We chose USDC as our primary trading pair because it’s one of the most trusted and stable digital dollars in crypto. Pairing OTEC with USDC makes it easy for first-time users to trade, reduces volatility, and ensures consistent pricing on Alien Base. It’s also widely available on exchanges like Coinbase.

USDC (USD Coin) is a regulated, dollar-backed stablecoin — 1 USDC is always worth $1. It’s issued by Circle, trusted by institutions, and easy to buy on platforms like Coinbase. It works just like digital cash and is ideal for learning how to trade crypto without dealing with price swings.

No. OTEC does not include any automatic burn or tax-on-transfer mechanism in its contract. That means:

• When you transfer or swap OTEC, no tokens are secretly removed or redirected.
• There are no hidden fees or “rug tax” mechanics.
• All burns are manual and intentional—done only when milestones aren’t met or for supply control.

This design keeps OTEC simple, fair, and transparent. We don’t believe in gimmicks. Any burn events will be visible on-chain and announced publicly.
