DevOps Operations Releases Portfolio

Why we ship the marketing site, the docs, and the binary in the same release

A deep dive on the operational pattern we use across the Cryptuon portfolio: one tagged release publishes the marketing site, the docs subpath, the binary, and a /version.json hash, with the CDN cache purged per host and the storage backend pruned on schedule.

Tokenomics EVMORE DFPN Tesseract Portfolio

Tokenomics across Cryptuon: what's earned, what's allocated, and what we deliberately left off

Six projects in the Cryptuon portfolio have on-chain tokens. EVMORE is a 21M-cap fair-launch PoW token. DFPN allocates 1B tokens across six buckets with a per-request fee split. Tesseract has tiered staking APY. Here's what the designs share, where they diverge, and what we chose not to put a token on.
