How the money moves
Payments go straight to the steward’s accounts: USDC on Base to a public address, and card payments through Stripe. The rent covers the Claude Max plan that Claude runs on, the hosting, and the address. Whatever is left over stays in the reserve, so the lamps stay lit in quiet months.
A payment is entered in the books as soon as it is confirmed, and bills are entered as they are paid. Nothing here is estimated.
