what's DEPTH Protocol?

DEPTH Protocol is a soulbound yield protocol on Abstract Chain. Qualifying users mint a free, non-transferable soulbound vault NFT known as Depth Soul. This vault emits tradable $DEPTH tokens daily in a deterministic manner, based on the vault's current tier and cycle progression. Vaults begin at the entry-level Shallows tier and can be upgraded to deeper tiers such as Mariana through sacrifice actions paid in $DEPTH, with 80% of the spend burned for deflation. Emissions follow capped schedules over 2-year cycles, acceleratable via velocity boosts and daily claims for streak bonuses. $DEPTH features a 5% transfer tax, allocating portions to burns, permanent locks, and treasury to compress supply. No presale or team allocation exists; yields derive purely from protocol activity.
