Learn these and you've learned the whole model. ## Broadcast — share it open You composed a station around something that matters to you. **Broadcast** it: open, free, to anyone. A Broadcast is off-chain — nothing permanent has happened yet, nothing is bought, and everyone can play. It's the widest door of the protocol. ## mint — anchor it When your station is ready to last, you **mint** it: its on-chain birth. From this moment the station is permanent, sovereign, yours — no one can edit or delete it, including us. At the mint, you choose what it carries: * **a YuCROWN mission** — a real, verified action for this earth. Your payment becomes a **Drop**: the full amount, to the 501(c)(3). Your station is now also **grounded** — anchored to a real place on this earth. * **plain** — the station anchors with nothing but itself. An ordinary purchase. One choice, one payment, one destination — never split. ## Cast — connect it From your minted station, you **Cast**: a **NaviStar** minted to a person you choose. It lands in their Realm — an on-chain, two-way, permanent link between you. Cast again as the moment grows; every star from one station joins its **constellation**. ## keep — hold what's yours Every star Cast to you collects in your **Realm** — your own sky. Keeping isn't a fourth act — it's what the three acts are for, and it's not passive: what you keep is what you are building. *** ## The order matters **The mint anchors; the Cast connects.** A station is minted **once**; stars travel from it **again and again**. Broadcast stays free and off-chain. Three different moves — they never flatten into one. And that's all there is. No likes, no comments, no counts. **To respond is to Cast back.** Reactions live on social media; on Earth LinC, every gesture is permanent, so every gesture means something. *** *A protocol anchored by YuCROWN Corporation · 501(c)(3) — anchored, never owned.* --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://earthlinc.gitbook.io/protocol/start/the-acts.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
