The ZEC goes from your Zcash wallet through NEAR Intents into your Sapling account, and the buy runs there. Usually 5–10 minutes (Zcash confirmations). If it cannot run, the ZEC comes back to your Zcash wallet.
Holder rewards: 0.80% of every trade paid in ZEC to holders, min $20 holding.
Permanent: nobody can change it.
Paid automatically when the pot is worth about $25, at most once an hour, to every wallet holding $20 or more at a snapshot taken at a random minute. Holders do nothing. A wallet with no ZEC account gets one with its first payout: a small amount of rent, taken once from that payout. The account is yours. Each run's snapshot and every transfer are on Rings.
The liquidity share of every trade goes into $SAPLING/ZEC liquidity whose LP tokens are burned, so nobody can pull it. pump.fun takes its own protocol fee on top: 0.95% on the curve, 0.25% after graduation. None of it reaches Sapling. The split can change within the program's bounds: liquidity never below 0.50%, Sapling never above 0.40%.
Nobody has ever seen one move, yet every morning he is somewhere else. The Zcash Orchard's gnome has been doing exactly this for years: you can verify he moved, you will never see the transaction. When Sapling announced the Race to $1M, the stewards found him already on the Seed Grid in a navy kart with a gold Z coin on the nose and a 0 on the plate, hat pulled down over where his eyes should be, beard in the wind. Asked who entered him, the stewards wrote down exactly what he said: "gnobody." The name stuck. The G is silent, and so is he. Every lap he enters the Shielded Tunnel fifth and comes out first. The Watchers' cameras record three seconds of black. The stewards file "telemetry unavailable, result stands" because the proof checks out. He can prove he won. He will not show you how. And every time anyone trades, 0.80% is paid to the pit crew in ZEC, so gnobody has to trust anybody.
On pump.fun the deployer's wallet shows as creator; the creator fee itself goes to Sapling's program (8Z3c…SQbg), which splits it on chain.
