Short answers
Asked and answered.
If an answer ever disagrees with the chain, the chain wins.
What is $OPHELIA?
A coin with one ritual. It launches fairly on pump.fun, and every Sunday 90% of the project's fees come back, buy $OPHELIA, and burn. Each burn grows a flower in the garden.
Why the Millais painting?
Ophelia floats in the stream while flowers drift around her. The mechanics mirror the image: supply can only sink, the garden can only grow — and the blockchain enforces both directions.
Can the team print more?
No. Mint authority is revoked at creation. There is no faucet.
What does it cost to trade?
pump.fun's standard fee — 1.25% on the curve, a similar band on PumpSwap. The creator's slice of that (0.30%, up to 0.95% after graduation) splits every Sunday: 90% burns, 10% goes to the team.
What do the burns actually accomplish?
They permanently shrink supply. They don't defend a price — if selling is heavy, she sinks anyway. The point is that she can only sink.
Who's behind it?
One founder. Nothing was allocated or held back — any tokens they hold, they bought on the public curve like everyone else. Of the fees, 10% goes to the team and the other 90% comes back as burns — every Sunday, in public.
How do I know the burns really happen?
Total supply is a public number on-chain — burns are the only thing that makes it drop. Every burn's transaction signature is posted, and each one grows a flower.
Why Sundays?
A rhythm you can set a watch by. No exact hour is promised — sometime Sunday, every week.
What happens if trading quiets down?
Fees shrink, so burns shrink, and that gets published just the same. The fixed parts — supply, the permanent pool — don't depend on volume.
Can it go to zero?
Yes. Every memecoin can. Only spend what you can watch sink.
How do I verify all this myself?
One explorer tab: Solscan shows the supply and the revoked authorities, and the dashboard links everything else. No trust required.
