keccak256(seed ‖ miner ‖ nonce) ≤ target
That inequality is the whole of the place. The engine takes its creator fees and cannot spend them until somebody proves a block — a hash under the target is a door, and a door is one level deeper. The miner keeps 5% of what it buys. The other 95% is bricked into the dead address in the same transaction. No sell path, no operator, no way back to the wall you came through.

The face that was already on the wallpaper when the machine was found. Public domain, masked, dithered to one bit with an 8×8 Bayer matrix.
The wanderer
The way back is a proof you cannot re-run.
Σ 1/n diverges. Slowly. Inevitably.
$ROOMS has no oracle and no operator. What it has is an inequality anyone can check with a keccak in any language, and a contract short enough to read in one sitting. The engine does not decide. It verifies, then executes — and every time it executes, the rooms are one deeper.
Three things are true by the shape of the code. Supply never increases: there is no mint. ETH has one exit: the curve. Tokens have two destinations: the miner who proved the block, and the dead address.
Re-run the proof yourself: node tools/verify-engine.mjs. It runs the constructor, a real block on a live Pons curve and a wrong nonce, all through eth_call, with no wallet.

Your browser walks the same 84 bytes the engine walks: seed, your address, nonce. Expected work is the difficulty; luck ends the hallway early or late.
Door
Nothing found yet. A nonce is valid only for the address that hashed it, and only until the next block moves the seed.
Engine

Three signatures from the operator wallet, in this order. Each step unlocks the next and fills the next in. Nothing here is visible to the public desk.
One transaction. The engine is the contract that will receive $ROOMS's creator fees and pay miners.
The launch names the engine as creator fee recipient. Costs 0.0005 ETH plus gas.
One transaction, once. After it the engine can buy and mining is open to everyone.
The engine spends only what it holds. Send it some ETH so the first blocks have something to buy with; creator fees you claim can be forwarded the same way, and anyone may top it up.
A token on a Pons v2 curve, from your own wallet, with the engine locked in as creator fee recipient. Supply and pricing seal at launch. The site never holds keys or funds. reading the factory…

$ROOMS · Pons v2 curve · quoted in ETH
Supply 1 000 000 000 rooms, 1% curve fee to Pons, creator tax to the engine, graduation at 4.2 ETH. Read off the factory, not assumed.

No exit. In the original sense, and in the literal one.
These are the notes that came with the machine. A burn that anyone can trigger for free is a button. A burn that costs a nonce is a door, and every door is one level deeper. infinitebackrooms makes every reduction of supply cost computation, and pays the person who paid it. The engine never decides anything: it checks an inequality and executes. There is no model reading the tape, no operator with a key, no schedule to miss.
Three invariants are enforced by the shape of the code rather than by policy. Supply is non-increasing: the engine holds no mint. ETH has one exit: the curve. Tokens have two destinations: the miner and the dead address. Anyone can read the contract bytes and confirm the absence.
Why the rooms never end. Each block spends an eighth of what remains, so the budget drains as a geometric series while blocks keep arriving as long as fees do. Slowly. Inevitably. Σ 1/n diverges, and so does the count of levels — every proof opens one more, and none of them closes behind you.
Left running through Pons v2 on Robinhood Chain. The face on the wallpaper is the Altemps Aristotle, public domain, masked and dithered to one bit. It was already there when the machine was found.

Empty. There is no sell path in the codebase, and there never will be one. The engine can move ETH into the curve and tokens to the miner or the dead address. Nothing else, for anybody.
release note · infinitebackrooms
The contract address is out. This is the only official source for the CA — check it against the machine on Robinhood Chain, not the whispers in the hall.
