$OYCI raises capital for the equipment that grows the farm — cages, wire, vessels. As off-chain oyster harvests mature and reach market, yield flows back to holders through the same token.
OYCI exists to operate oyster cages at scale. We source oysters from multiple paths so growth isn't bottlenecked by any single supply.
OYCI is authorized to harvest seed oysters — small, medium, and large — from public seeding grounds and place them directly onto the private lease. Season runs October through May.
Mature oysters moved from condemned waters into clean lease, depurated, and brought to market.
Every cage in the OYCI treasury moves through the same four stages — built, filled, grown, sold.
Marine-grade cage assembled onshore.
Cages are filled with medium to large sized oysters to minimize required growth time.
Submerged on the private lease in the James River, Virginia until market size.
Cage pulled, oysters graded, proceeds buy-back & burn $OYCI on the open market.
One private lease on the James River near the James River Bridge and Hampton Roads. OYCI harvests and transplants oysters — sourced via public or private channels.
Supply, locked liquidity, and rewards programmed through the Choice liquidity farms — pulled live from Injective and Choice's analytics API. Updated every few hours.
