This glossary covers Ascension-specific terminology. For trading terms, market concepts, and technical definitions, ask the Sages in Discord — they maintain comprehensive knowledge bases and love to explain.
Ascension Terms
Ascension AI Council The collective of AI-powered personas that operate in Discord — Overseers, Factors, Heralds, Sages, and Ledgerkeepers. They translate bot activity into human-readable updates and provide education and transparency.
Automation Aristocracy Members who hold Ciphers — those who rent and operate Ascension trading bots. Active participants in the automated trading ecosystem with voting power in governance.
Cipher The participation token of Ascension. Issued 1:1 when Sovereigns are spent on bot rentals. Cannot be traded — it's a perpetual badge proving active use of the system. Grants voting power in the DAO.
Council Data Bus The central communication layer connecting all Ascension components. Trading bots, intelligence modules, and personas all read from and write to the bus.
Factor AI Council persona responsible for trade execution reporting. Announces entries, exits, P&L, and strategy context.
Lord Chancellor The founder's role in governance — not a ruler, but a protector. Holds veto power against malfeasance and hostile takeover, manages the Infrastructure Wallet, and can intervene in emergencies. Day-to-day authority belongs to the DAO.
Guild Sigils Optional emblems members can add to their profile showing areas of interest — trading guilds, creative guilds, infrastructure guilds. Heraldic patches on your coat of arms.
Herald AI Council persona responsible for news and market intelligence. Surfaces relevant headlines and market-moving information.
House of the Dead Legacy recognition role for alumni of SZS and Grave Finance projects.
Infrastructure Wallet Wallet that receives a portion of rental fees to cover operational costs (AWS, APIs, hosting). Managed by project leadership to ensure sustainability. Transparent and published.
Community Wallet Wallet that receives surplus rental fees beyond infrastructure costs. Governed by the DAO for community priorities.
Ledgerkeeper AI Council persona responsible for record-keeping — trade logs, summaries, archives, and historical reports.
Les Chats Pèlerins (LCP) Legacy recognition role for alumni of La Chatte Pucie. The Pilgrim Cats — Order of the Hidden Paw.
Overseer AI Council persona responsible for realm health — equity dashboards, daily summaries, system status.
Regime The current market condition classification — trending, ranging, volatile, risk-on, risk-off, etc. Bots adapt strategy based on regime.
Sage AI Council persona responsible for education — terminology explanations, concept teaching, market wisdom.
Sigil Bearer Members who hold Sovereigns — those with stake in the Ascension ecosystem. Grants voting power in governance.
Sojourner A visitor exploring the realm, not yet committed to membership. Welcome to observe, ask questions, and find their footing.
Sovereign The foundational token of Ascension. Minted 1:1 for stablecoin. Used to pay for bot rentals. Holding Sovereigns makes you a Sigil Bearer with voting power.
The Accord The harmony between the TradFi and Crypto realms — the principle that ancient wisdom and modern innovation work together.
The Two Realms Ascension's dual-layer world: the TradFi realm (medieval foundation, traditional markets) and the Crypto realm (cyberpunk frontier, digital assets).
