Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about $TIAC token, answered.

General Questions

What does TIAC stand for?

TrumpIsA****. The meaning should be obvious to anyone who has been paying attention. See the main page for the full explanation.

Why are you doing this?

Somebody had to.

What is the purpose of this token?

$TIAC is a satirical response to Donald Trump's $TRUMP token launch - a transparently venal cash grab launched three days before his inauguration. While $TRUMP is structured to enrich insiders at the expense of retail investors, $TIAC demonstrates what a fair launch actually looks like.

Is this a joke?

Yes and no. The concept is satirical, but the token is real, the smart contract is audited, the code is verifiable, and the tokenomics are fair. Whether you view it as political satire, a legitimate cryptocurrency experiment, or both, is up to you.

This is vulgar and disrespectful. You should be ashamed.

We should be ashamed? WE????

Who created TIAC?

The developers remain pseudonymous, following the cryptocurrency tradition of projects that speak for themselves through code and tokenomics rather than celebrity endorsements. All code is public, verifiable, and audited.

Tokenomics and Pricing

What is the price of TIAC?

TIAC trades at a flat 1:1 ratio with SOL during the unlimited sale period (until December 31, 2025, 2400 UTC). One SOL buys one TIAC. No bonding curve, no price increases, no first-mover advantage.

When does the unlimited sale end?

December 31, 2025 at 24:00 UTC. After this date, no new tokens will be minted (except to bring the total supply to a minimum of 100,000 if fewer have been sold).

What happens after the sale period ends?

The mint authority will be burned, making the supply permanently fixed. Tokens will still be available for purchase from the program-controlled vault at 1 SOL per TIAC until that supply is exhausted. After that, trading will occur on secondary markets at whatever price the market determines - although the permanent redeemability of TIAC via the program (as on this site) ensures that the floor price cannot fall below 1 SOL more than transiently.

Why is the price so high?

TIAC is priced at 1 SOL in order to align it exactly with SOL and guarantee exact accounting with no possibility of rounding. As it happens (as of this writing) the price of $TIAC is about 20-30 times that of $TRUMP. Of course, it is the market capitalization (token price X number of circulating tokens) that really matters, but this is a fine point that a certain politician is probably intellectually, and certainly emotionally, incapable of grasping. You can buy $TIAC in increments of a billionth of a SOL - there is no necessity of buying whole-token amounts.

Fun fact: the minimum unit of SOL is one billionth of a SOL, known as a "lamport". The minimum unit of TIAC is one billionth of a TIAC, known as a "falsehood".

Can I redeem TIAC for SOL?

Yes. TIAC is permanently redeemable at 1 TIAC = 1 SOL through the smart contract. This is guaranteed by the program logic and cannot be changed.

What's the total supply?

The supply is fixed at the number of tokens sold during the unlimited sale period, with a minimum of 100,000 tokens. If fewer than 100,000 are sold, the shortfall will be minted to the program-controlled vault and will remain for sale at 1 SOL per TIAC until exhausted.

Is there a maximum supply?

A predetermined maximum would make the token vulnerable to front running and whale cornering, so there isn't one. The supply is determined by how many tokens are purchased during the unlimited sale period ending December 31, 2025.

Buying, Selling, and Redeeming

How do I buy TIAC?

Connect a Solana wallet (Phantom, Solflare, etc.) to this website, ensure you have SOL in your wallet, and use the trading interface. See the Beginner's Guide for detailed instructions.

Once all available tokens have been sold from the program (this site) TIAC will presumably become available on secondary markets (e.g. Jupiter, Raydium, Orca).

What wallets are supported?

Any Solana-compatible wallet: Phantom, Solflare, Torus, Ledger, and others. We recommend Phantom for beginners.

What fees do I pay?

You pay Solana network fees (typically ~0.000005 SOL, less than a penny) plus an optional priority fee to speed up transaction processing during network congestion. There are no developer fees or trading fees.

How do priority fees work?

Priority fees are optional extra payments to Solana validators to prioritize your transaction during busy periods. Think of it as express shipping. Start with "Low" and increase only if transactions are timing out.

Can I sell TIAC?

Yes. You can redeem TIAC for SOL at any time through the smart contract at a 1:1 ratio. You can also trade on secondary markets if/when liquidity pools are established, though we have no control over or involvement in secondary markets.

How long do transactions take?

Solana transactions typically complete in seconds. During network congestion, it may take 30-60 seconds. If a transaction times out, try again with a higher priority fee.

Technical Questions

What blockchain is TIAC on?

Solana. We chose Solana for its speed, low fees, and robust token infrastructure. This happens to be the same network that hosts $TRUMP. A quintessentially fair token vs a quintessentially venal one. We shall see how it goes.

What is the TIAC mint address?

The official and only legitimate TIAC mint address is:

T1ACXXh9Xp15oKrh3s9REJnUtrUqbJ4xFEq2fege8Wv

Always verify this address before transacting. Beware of copycats and scams using similar-looking addresses.

Has the smart contract been audited?

Yes. The TIAC smart contract has been audited by Cyberscope, whose audit reports are recognized by CoinMarketCap. See the verification section on the main page.

Can I verify the deployed code?

Yes. The source code is public and the deployed program is verifiable. See the "Don't Trust — Verify" section on the main page for detailed instructions on verifying the build.

Can the developers change the program?

No. The upgrade authority has been renounced, so no one can modify the program. This is verifiable on-chain.

Where is the collected SOL stored?

All SOL from token sales is stored in a program-controlled vault. The developers have no access to these funds - they can only be withdrawn through the redemption mechanism built into the smart contract.

Safety and Security

Is this a scam?

No. The smart contract is audited, the code is verifiable, and the tokenomics are transparent. That said, all cryptocurrency investments carry risk. Do your own research and never invest more than you can afford to lose.

Can I lose money?

Yes. Because of its permanent redeemability, an investment in TIAC is at worst an investment in SOL - but the value of SOL fluctuates. We have no control over what happens on secondary markets, but TIAC bought on secondary markets can always be redeemed via the smart contract (as on this site) - possibly at a loss, if you bought TIAC on a secondary market at higher than the contract price.

What if I buy fake TIAC?

Always verify the mint address before transacting. The only legitimate TIAC has the mint address shown above. If you buy a token with a different mint address, it is not TIAC and we cannot help you.

What should I never share?

Never share your wallet's recovery phrase (seed phrase) with anyone, including us. Anyone with your recovery phrase can steal all your funds. No legitimate service will ever ask for it.

What if my transaction fails?

Common causes include: insufficient SOL for fees, wallet locked, or network congestion. See the Help section on the trading page for troubleshooting. If a transaction fails before being submitted to the network, no funds are lost.

Networks and Exchanges

Is TIAC on mainnet or devnet?

Currently on Solana devnet for testing. Mainnet launch will be announced when testing is complete.

Will TIAC be listed on exchanges?

We will apply for listings on CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko, and decentralized exchanges. Whether centralized exchanges list TIAC is up to them - we have no control over their listing decisions.

Can I trade TIAC on Raydium, Jupiter, or other DEXs?

Yes, once liquidity pools are established. We encourage community members to create liquidity pools, though we cannot provide them ourselves. Remember: TIAC is always redeemable through the smart contract regardless of DEX availability.

Will there be a liquidity pool?

We will not create or fund liquidity pools ourselves. However, anyone can create a pool on a DEX. The permanent redeemability of TIAC means liquidity providers face no downside risk in SOL terms, as long as those TIAC were purchased at the contract price of 1 SOL.

Legal and Regulatory

Is TIAC a security?

We make no claims about the legal classification of TIAC. Consult with your own legal and tax advisors about the implications of purchasing or holding TIAC in your jurisdiction.

Do I owe taxes on TIAC transactions?

Cryptocurrency transactions may have tax implications in your jurisdiction. We do not provide tax advice. Consult a tax professional familiar with cryptocurrency regulations in your country.

Is this financial advice?

No. Nothing on this website constitutes financial, legal, or investment advice. TIAC is a satirical token and an experiment in fair launch tokenomics. Participate at your own risk.

Where can I get help?

See the Help section on the trading page for common troubleshooting steps. For other questions, contact adam.selene@tiac.io. Note: we will never ask for your recovery phrase or private keys.

Project and Community

What is the goal of TIAC?

To satirize Trump's $TRUMP cash grab while demonstrating what fair token economics look like. Also, to ridicule the pompous, self-aggrandizing charlatan who currently occupies the White House. As Thomas More said: "The devill ... the proude spirite ... cannot endure to be mocked."

How can I stay updated?

Check this website regularly for updates. We will announce any major developments (mainnet launch, exchange listings, etc.) here.

Will there be merchandise?

We don't sell merchandise, but all graphics and materials on this site are public domain. Anyone can use them to create and sell TIAC-related products. See the Merchandise section on the main page.

Can I contribute to this project?

Development is complete and immutable, so we can't use any help there. However, we have limited resources for promotion, so if you would share $TIAC on your social media accounts that would be greatly appreciated.

Is there a roadmap?

No. The tokenomics are set in granite, the code is immutable, and the launch parameters are defined. After mainnet launch and upgrade authority renunciation (already done), the token will function exactly as designed with no further developer intervention necessary or even possible.
