The Early Access Key: What It Is and Why It Exists

The Early Access Key is the first position available inside the system.

Before the Foundation Pass. Before the waves. The Key.

10,000 keys will ever exist, issued on the Base blockchain. €5 each. The Key is not the Foundation Pass — it does not carry a number, does not assign a tier, does not lock in a position in the wave structure. What it does is open the door early.

A Key is early access — to the city, and to each wave before it opens publicly. It does not enter you into anything, and it promises nothing beyond the door it opens. It removes the wait, not the work.

There are two ways to hold one. Buy it — €5, from the store. Or earn it free: share the designated post on the official Ytinu Moc Instagram and follow its instructions, and a Key is issued at no cost. Same key, either way. The city does not gate its doors by status.

And a limited number of the 10,000 are sealed. At reveal, a sealed Key unlocks a Foundation Pass — a seat in the Foundation itself. Sealed Keys sit at random across all Keys, purchased and free alike; the exact count and the reveal date are published on the details page before the first reveal. Every Key is the product. Some doors simply have more behind them.

The Key also exists as a blockchain asset. It is verifiable, transferable, and permanent on the Base network. Whatever the Inner Circle system builds around it — gated access, Discord verification, on-chain identity — the Key is the first credential in a system of credentials that is still being constructed.

The ones who moved early enough to hold a Key understand what it represents. Not just the asset — the judgment that produced it.

Claim a Key — from €5.
