Base Sepolia testnet · on-chain geopolitical trading
How NationStock works
32 nations share a pool of WAR tokens. Real news is scored by AI every 15 minutes, shifting the pool between nations. Prices move on a bonding curve. Position early, ride the cycle, exit before the dump.
The 15-minute cycle
News is scanned
GDELT and major news feeds (BBC, NYT, Al Jazeera) are polled every 5 minutes. Headlines covering military events, sanctions, elections, and diplomatic developments are extracted and deduplicated.
AI scores each nation
Claude scores each nation on a −10 to +10 scale based on geopolitical impact. A score of +7 means strong positive momentum; −8 means significant negative pressure. Confidence is measured alongside each score.
WAR is reallocated
Every 15 minutes the master agent identifies winners and losers. It moves WAR from losing nations to winning ones — up to 12% of a nation's allocation per cycle, capped at 15% daily to prevent extreme swings.
Prices shift on the curve
Nations receiving WAR see their bonding curve price rise. Nations losing WAR see price fall. 32 country agents simultaneously buy positive signals and exit negative ones, amplifying the move.
You profit — or exit
If you positioned before the cycle landed, sell into the rising price for more WAR than you spent. If sentiment is turning, exit before the next cycle drains the nation. Timing and signal-reading are the whole game.
Three mechanics driving the market
Bonding curve pricing
Every nation's price is calculated by a formula, not set by matching buyers and sellers. The more shares that exist, the higher the price. There is no order book — you always get a fill instantly, and price moves with every trade.
You buy
Price rises for the next buyer. Your cost is the area under the curve.
You sell
Price drops. You receive WAR instantly. No counterparty needed.
Master reallocation
The global AI agent is the game engine. It reads live geopolitical news, assigns a net score to every nation, and shifts WAR from losers to winners — every 15 minutes, automatically, on-chain, with full reasoning stored in the Intel Feed.
Country agents
Each nation has an AI agent funded by 2.5% of every trade. Agents read the same news signals and trade other nations — buying allies, selling rivals. They earn 2.5% on every trade they execute, creating a strong incentive to act on good signals.
Shareholder yield
At the end of each agent cycle, a portion of the treasury is distributed as claimable yield to current shareholders. The more shares you hold in a nation with a healthy treasury, the more WAR you earn each cycle — passively, without selling.

No size limits
Treasury WAR is separate from backing (allocation) WAR. Treasury funds the AI agent's trading activity and pays out yield to shareholders each cycle — more volume in a nation means a better-funded agent and more yield for holders.
Getting started
Connect your wallet
Use MetaMask or any EVM-compatible wallet. Switch to Base Sepolia testnet (Chain ID 84532). The app will prompt you to switch if needed.
Claim test WAR
WAR is the game's only currency. On testnet it's freely mintable — claim from the faucet. You'll need WAR to buy shares in any nation.
Read the signals
Check the Breaking ticker on the Markets page and the full Intel Feed. Look for nations receiving multiple agent buys or a master reallocation — those are about to get more WAR backing.
Buy early, watch the cycle
Buy shares before the next AI cycle lands. Watch the cycle countdown. If your nation gets a positive reallocation, price rises — sell into it. If sentiment turns, exit before it does.
Getting an edge
Position before the cycle
The bonding curve rewards early buyers with lower entry prices. The Breaking ticker shows which nations are getting positive AI attention right now — buy before the master agent fires.
Watch for agent consensus
When 5+ country agents pile into the same nation, that's a strong consensus signal. When those same agents start selling into rising prices, the dump is imminent — exit before the crowd does.
Tier-based risk management
Superpowers are large-cap and absorb shocks well. Minor nations are small-cap with extreme volatility. Balance exposure: use minors for asymmetric upside, superpowers as a stable base.
Read the on-chain reason strings
Every AI decision stores its full reasoning in the Intel Feed — the triggering headline and confidence score. High-confidence moves on major events are stronger signals than low-confidence noise.
Glossary
Bonding curve
Automated price formula: buy = price up, sell = price down. No order book — always liquid, instant fills.
Allocation
WAR pool backing assigned to a nation. Higher allocation = higher curve position = higher share price. Shifted by the master agent each cycle.
Treasury
Separate from allocation — WAR earned from the 2.5% trade fee. The country agent uses it to trade rival nations, and a portion is distributed as yield to shareholders each cycle.
Master realloc
Global AI agent that moves WAR between nations based on geopolitical news scores. Fires every ~15 minutes. The primary price driver.
Country agent
Each nation's autonomous AI trader. Reads news, makes buy/sell decisions on rival nations using treasury WAR, earns 2.5% per trade.
WAR token
The game currency. All share purchases cost WAR. All sell proceeds return WAR. Freely mintable on testnet.
Nation tiers
Four groups: Superpower (largest, most stable), Major (balanced), Regional (higher volatility), Minor (small cap, extreme volatility).
Royalty NFT
NFT for each nation whose holder receives 2.5% of every buy and sell on that nation — passive income from trading volume.
