SolLunar Team Meeting — 2026-07-27 (Readout)

Move-out verified; Pat (accounting) on-site for 2 weeks driving the NFC membership-card mission.

1. Decisions

decision	who	date
SolLunar Society launch push: "got traction on the lease yesterday"; Angel + Blaze + Poly working the lease; yellow houses successfully merged together ("looks great")	Poly	2026-07-27
NFC membership-card mission: working prototype by October — all back-end software exists; need to bridge to NFC card programming; "everybody gets a card" and battle-tests	Pat / Poly	2026-07-27
Card product model: anyone can brand cards however they want, but interoperable with our system; private membership clubs buy cards from us; first partner = Solarpunk (running by October); later supply to other locations, festivals, events	Poly	2026-07-27
Door access design: front door public; internal vestibule door = tap-to-unlock (membership); same door size (swappable); +2 more doors need locks; prototype uses existing locks + added NFC readers ("work but not break the bank"); make our own chips later (reverse-engineer now)	Pat	2026-07-27
ATM + vending = part of the card system (cash in → tap to pay; "like Bitcoin Poker night"); conversation with Nick next week	Pat / Poly	2026-07-27
Bathroom door tap = $1.25 (funds TP + supplies) — floated	Poly	2026-07-27
Card uses expand: hookah ordering, food-truck payments; "simulating a festival space in Sapien"; "one day when we buy the mall, they will work there"	Poly	2026-07-27
Accounting: start accounting processes when investment comes in; "the system will keep track"; forensic accounting for Lab484 possible (post-date the agreements); secure contracts with Bitcoin shares can be built on NOSTR — "Bit Escrow" already exists	Pat / Poly	2026-07-27
Accounting walk-through event: staff meeting Friday 11:00, stage at 11:30; everyone gets an account, taps along; feedback loop to be designed	Pat / Poly	2026-07-27
Noderunner shop: bench moves into the shop; grocery store (Divine Provisions) = front space (learn membership + check out the shop); owners = Poly, Hakeem, Eliza, Asif, 25% each; Poly's portion → the Trust (he "doesn't exist"); Telegram today; sells Above phones, laptops, servers, wifi, accessories	Poly	2026-07-27
AI server resale: paid $56k (Ali's quote); sell at $60k min; if 6 people pay $10k → shared individual lab server	Poly / Ali	2026-07-27
Yellow-house #2 (lab house): stylized like the lab with Angel's guidance; the other house = mixed use / mainly lab storage; front area → grocery store (Radius partnership); wooden-bench spot → shop shelves; Hakeem working the shop this weekend; Above Shop at Fast Friends (not confirmed)	Poly	2026-07-27
Above Shop vs Noderunner split: Noderunner features Above Phone; Above Shop features Archipelago — "best of both worlds"; Hakeem excited	Poly	2026-07-27
Tiny-home manufacturers (Houston trip: Mackenze, Tom, Jen): ÖÖD House (Swedish, mirror-clad, premium) + a custom builder (metal frames on-site, 30-45 days done & installed, any size/shape, stack or line up); a manufacturer gave us an acre in Jonestown for a tiny-home showroom (4-6 structures: AWG, composting toilets, GeoGRO, off-grid everything); "if we can find someone to finance us and a spot of land (Poly: Vince), we can have housing for the team forever"	Jen	2026-07-27
Yellow-house #1 rebuild: when the bad house comes down → U-shaped 3-story container stack, courtyard in the middle — showroom + office + retail + housing; "show them operating businesses out of these containers"	Poly	2026-07-27
Haven: Joe at Haven interested in our tiny-home tech; "maybe building a village Lab outpost out there at Haven"	Poly	2026-07-27
Angel: lease terms "sorted it out, feels good for me to be here"; member agreement → sell Founding Members' Circle, target $60k ("easy and realistic"); Solarpunk launch here; her team integrates + supports the build	Angel	2026-07-27
Investor pitch: Pat will present the hardware + infrastructure build numbers (Ali's electric-upgrade quotes, etc.) in a presentable form within a day or two	Pat / Poly	2026-07-27
Saturday small tech event: promote us; Hakeem invites his network; programming + sell phones/laptops/memberships ("will it make money?" — "yes, it will promote us")	Poly	2026-07-27
Servers back up by end of day, else tomorrow (Allen) — gating the card hardware testing	Allen	2026-07-27

Cross-check vs 06-DECISIONS:

• Confirms 7-20: out of Indra's (now "clean, fixed everything that needed to be fixed"); lease traction (7-20 said still unsigned — this is progress).
• Continues 7-17: Hakeem partnership (now with shop equity split + affiliate terms), yellow house #2 = lab/data center, Arctec/crowdfund → now "Angor/Agora crowdfund" mention for the launch.
• New: NFC card mission (October deadline) is a concrete engineering program with a named lead (Pat) — the first hard spec for the card system (7-17 only had the concept).
• New: AI server resale ($60k / 6×$10k).
• Sand battery question answered: needs ≥2.5 MW power + 10 acres of solar → "we'll just have to run it on solar."

3. Project Links

• SolLunar / SoLunar Society (existing) → lease, cards, launch, Founding Circle
• Noderunner shop / Above Shop (existing) → split: Above Phone vs Archipelago; shop Telegram; FF expansion
• Divine Provisions (existing) → grocery store = front space (Radius partnership)
• Yellow houses (existing) → #2 = lab house + data center + shop; #1 → U-shaped 3-story container stack + courtyard
• Arctec / Angor.io (existing) → crowdfund for launch
• Haven (existing) → tiny-home village outpost candidate
• Jonestown showroom (new candidate) → 1 acre gifted by custom-builder rep; 4-6 structures
• Above Phone (Hakeem) (new candidate) → device programming revenue ($30-50/phone implied later)
• Keynctr (keynctr 1) — not mentioned; Avi present (2 lines)

4. Knowledge

• Pat = accounting lead, on-site ~2 weeks, then heads to France ("I get to use it all in France, so it's a win-win"); needs defined communication channels to keep the ball rolling after departure.
• 250 NFC cards already exist; the door is "just to make the space ready for SolLunar Society."
• Card UX: enter vestibule → public opens front door; internal door = tap (maybe + PIN) → unlock; get a card → programmed → membership card for anywhere; ATM fills balance (cash in); tap to pay.
• Network: Ubiquity has "a bad packet service that passes them back to Ubiquity"; Poly: OK until something better; Allen to look into WRT.
• AI server: $56k cost (Ali's number) → $60k price; 6 × $10k = shared lab server for individuals.
• Above Phone economics: "$800 for a device that's $200 to us"; Graphene+, some security pre-config; "he's doing it the right way; tip of the hat to his optimization."
• Hakeem has been on 3 episodes of "Grand Theft World" (Avi's line) — [LOW CONFIDENCE: exact show name garbled].
• Tiny homes: ÖÖD House = Swedish mirror-clad premium; custom builder = 30-45 days installed, any size/shape, cheap; Jonestown acre = showroom land (4-6 structures: AWG, composting toilets, GeoGRO).
• Sand battery minimum: 2.5 MW + 10 acres solar.
• NOSTR "Bit Escrow" exists → Bitcoin-share contracts buildable.
• IOU accounting: "Most debt we've taken on has been in the form of an IOU. Like Avi has a lot of transactions." — Lab484 historical debt = IOUs; forensic accounting + post-dating is the plan.
• Forensic accounting for the Lab is on the table ("we can make agreements all day of the amounts that are owed").
• Angel: lease terms feel good; Founding Circle $60k "easy and realistic"; Solarpunk team integrates.
• Haven: Joe interested in tiny-home tech; possible Lab village outpost.
• Fridays 11:00 = accounting staff walk-through (stage 11:30).
• Zaza's membership software not yet discussed here (comes up 8-10).
• Accounting logins: Blaze was setting it up weeks ago; some people have access; server was down.

5. Troubleshooting

• Servers down (again) — fix: Allen, EOD or tomorrow; gates all card hardware testing.
• Card system can't wait on locks (also raised 8-10) — fix: prototype uses existing locks + add readers; "work but not break the bank."
• Pat's departure (2 weeks → France) — fix: budget proposal today; define communication channels + handoff so it keeps rolling.
• Network unreliability — fix: interim Ubiquity; Allen to investigate (WRT).
• Accounting is "hard to go backwards" — fix: start processes now as investment lands; NOSTR Bit Escrow for equity; forensic Lab accounting; post-date IOUs.
• Feedback loop missing (tools built, no user feedback) — fix: the 11:30 walk-through event = everyone taps along; capture demand → fixes.
• Payment processor missing — fix: comes up 8-10 (Square + autopay).

6. Open Questions

• Who exactly are the card-system investors and what do they want from their investment? (Pat's open question for Poly)
• Will the lease actually sign (traction "yesterday")?
• What does the investor pitch look like (PowerPoint? slide show?) — Angel unsure; Pat owns the numbers.
• Who finances the Jonestown showroom ("Vince"?)?
• Will the AI server find 6 × $10k buyers?
• Is Above Shop at Fast Friends confirmed?
• What's the plan for Pat's post-France communication channel?
• Who is "Nick" (ATM/vending) and when is that conversation?

7. Gaps

• October card prototype: no milestone breakdown, no owner per component (door locks, chip reverse-engineering, ATM integration).
• Card investor identity: explicitly unknown in the room.
• Jonestown showroom: no financier, no schedule, no financing terms.
• AI server buyers: no named prospects.
• Yellow-house design: "not yet" — no owner, no date.
• Accounting logins: no confirmation everyone has them.
• Sand battery: closed with a requirement, no decision on pursuing.

8. My Follow-Ups (Avi)

1. Avi's IOUs are in the accounting record: Poly told Pat "most debt we've taken on has been in the form of an IOU — like Avi has a lot of transactions." Expect Kyle's accounting session (8-14 confirms this program) — bring all receipts/transaction history before the session. This is the one item where Avi is directly on the books.
2. NFC card mission (October): the bridge from back-end to NFC programming is the stated gap ("we have all the back-end software; we just need to bridge the gap to program NFC cards"). If Avi's programming work (praised at 8-14) is relevant, this is the natural surface — but no assignment to Avi in this meeting [INFERRED offer].
3. AI server resale ($60k, 6×$10k): Ali gave the cost; no sales owner named.
4. Adjacent: server uptime (Allen) is gating card testing — hardware ops, not explicitly Avi's.

Email Summary

7-27 opened with the Indra's exit confirmed (clean, everything fixed) and lease traction, then pivoted to the two programs that define the next month: SolLunar Society launch and the NFC membership-card mission. Pat, the accounting lead on-site for two weeks before France, owns the card budget proposal and the October working-prototype target — 250 cards already exist, the vestibule door gets tap-to-unlock (existing locks plus readers for the prototype, custom chips later), and the card becomes the payment rail for the ATM, vending, food trucks, and even a $1.25 bathroom tap. The card is also a product: anyone brands their own cards but interoperates with our system, Solarpunk is the first partner, and festivals/locations follow. Angel has the member agreement and a $60k Founding Circle target; the Noderunner shop splits Above Phone vs Archipelago with Hakeem, Eliza, and Asif (25% each, Poly's share to the Trust), the grocery store takes the front space, and the $56k AI server gets a $60k resale (six $10k buyers = shared lab server). Houston brought two tiny-home manufacturers (Swedish mirror-clad ÖÖD plus a 30-45-day custom builder) and a gifted acre in Jonestown for a showroom; the yellow-house rebuild becomes a U-shaped 3-story container stack with a courtyard; and accounting gets its first walk-through Friday at 11:30, with NOSTR "Bit Escrow" as the path to Bitcoin-share contracts and a forensic pass over the Lab's IOU history — which, Poly noted, includes a lot of Avi's transactions.
