Discord — The Feeds
Two automated feeds report what is happening on PD, in near real time, with the art attached. They are the fastest read on the market the platform has.
- The sales feed — every completed sale.
- The listings feed — every Output put up for sale.
Both check for new activity every minute, so a post lands within about sixty seconds of the thing it reports.
Nothing is filtered out
Other platforms' feeds usually set a dollar floor to keep noise down. PD's own feeds have no floor at all — every real sale and every real listing posts, at any price. Nothing on PD gets hidden for being small.
The sales feed
A sale post carries the Output as its image and reads top to bottom:
| Part | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Title | The Output and its artist — Project #42 — @artist — plus its mint date. Links to the Output's page. |
| Image | The actual artwork. |
| Buyer | Who bought it. |
| Seller | Who sold it. |
| Sale type + price | The price in ETH with the live USD value beside it. The ETH figure links to the transaction. |
| Artist Royalty | What the artist earned on the sale, in ETH and USD, linking to the Project. |
| Footer | #42 / 500 • Price Discussion — the edition and the supply. |
Two kinds of sale, two colors
The post is color-coded so you can tell at a glance how the sale happened:
- LISTING SALE (green) — a buyer paid a seller's asking price.
- ITEM OFFER (blue) — a seller accepted an offer someone made on the Output.
The royalty line
The royalty field reports what the sale actually paid the artist, not what it theoretically should have. On the rare sale that routed around the artist's royalty, the field says "No royalty paid" in plain language rather than quietly printing a number. PD's own marketplace enforces royalties, so sales that happen on PD always pay.
The listings feed
A listing post is deliberately lighter — a thumbnail rather than a full image, since listings are far more frequent than sales:
- Title — the Output and its artist, plus its mint date, linking to the Output.
- Listed by — the seller, named the same way as in the sales feed.
- For — the asking price in ETH with the USD value beside it.
- Footer — the edition and supply.
How people are named
This is the part worth understanding, because it is the same identity you built in the app:
- If you have a PD account, the feed draws your full ASCII-ID — your
PriceSprite, your PriceRank badge, your
@name, and your Sigil if you have forged one and left it visible. Your name links to your PD profile. - If you don't, there is no PD page to point at, so the feed falls back to your ENS name, or a shortened wallet address if you have no ENS. That name links to the block explorer instead.
The practical upshot: set a @name on PD before you buy or sell if you want
to be a person in the feed rather than a string of hex.
The value channels
Every post goes to the main feed channel. Sales above certain USD values also echo into higher-value channels, so you can follow the whole market or only the significant moves without drowning:
| Channel tier | Gets |
|---|---|
| Main feed | Everything |
| $500+ | Sales worth $500 or more |
| $1,000+ | Sales worth $1,000 or more |
| $5,000+ | Sales worth $5,000 or more |
| $10,000+ | Sales worth $10,000 or more |
A sale lands in the main feed and in one value channel — the highest it qualifies for — so a $6,000 sale appears in the main feed and the $5,000 channel, not in every tier beneath it.
The listings feed runs a simpler split: the main listings channel gets everything, with one higher-value channel alongside it.
Prices and USD
ETH is the figure of record; the USD beside it is converted at the rate when the post was written and is there for a sense of scale. It is not re-calculated later, so an old post shows what the sale was worth on the day — which is usually what you want when scrolling back.
