A seat in the orchard, $48 a year.
Your membership stakes a SALT grant on your behalf; that stake is your seat and what keeps the network honest.
Beta network. Citrate may be reset one or more times before mainnet. If it is, all grants and SALT earnings migrate to the redeployed network — your membership and balances carry over, and you are never asked to pay again. The stable beta-net release is targeted for October 2026.
What a member can do.
- Run a full node.
- Build and deploy apps on it.
- Join or start a grove.
- Use the full toolbox: wallet, files, local models, agent workbench, journal, encrypted groups.
Look around first.
A free identity can explore the app, read the network, and sit in a grove. It earns nothing and dilutes nothing. Staking the membership bond makes you a member.
Gifted seats.
A member can stake another person’s seat. The invitee joins as a full member on the sponsor’s stake.
Portable identity.
Sign in on any Mac with your wallet and your groves are waiting. Membership follows the person, not the machine.
Organizations.
An organization is a grove. Its members hold ordinary memberships; roles and access are set in the app.
Membership is a one-year term. SALT has no cash value until mainnet, Q2 2027. A membership stakes a SALT grant to secure the network; a fee refund does not unlock or return that stake. See the membership terms.
