Cycles, Dark Listed and Supernova

A cycle in Virgo consists of a predefined number of successfully passed proposals, as determined by the DAO. Wallets that remain staked for the full duration of a cycle earn the temporary status of Dark Listed, making them eligible for exclusive Supernova rewards. Messier Objects are permanently Dark Listed due to their continuous staking status, and all Dark Listed stakes qualify for these special distributions.

Once a cycle concludes, the Supernova smart contract activates, distributing 13% of all non-ETH treasury tokens—12.13% to Dark Listed wallets in the regular pool and 0.87% to the Messier Objects pool. It then converts the remaining tokens to ETH, redistributing that ETH as follows: 87% back to the treasury, 12.13% to the regular Dark Listed pool, and 0.87% to the Messier Objects pool. After this, a new proposal cycle begins under the same rules.
