Project Cycles management — states gallery

The project overview's Cycles tab. In V1 cycles are self-funded from the project's own treasury: all claim payments flow into the treasury, a locked percentage is reserved for cycles, and on every inflow — plus an hourly check — the reserve is topped up by converting funds to ICP via an AMM and buying cycles. Only the excess above the reserve can be withdrawn. Anyone logged in can top a project up via its public link. Follows the page shell: white for the breadcrumb bar and cards only; header on grey.

Anyone logged in can top up via the public link — not just admins. Funds convert to ICP through an AMM and buy cycles. Only the excess above the locked reserve can be withdrawn.

02Public top-up · anyone logged inThe public-facing cycle top-up, reachable by link. Any logged-in user (not just admins) can contribute in an approved currency; the amount is converted via an AMM to ICP and used to buy cycles. Login is required only so the payment can be drawn from the contributor's wallet.

03Reserve low — auto-restoringThe cycle balance has dipped below the reserve target. No admin action is needed: the next inflow or the hourly check converts treasury funds to cycles. While the reserve is short, withdrawable excess is 0 — the project can't withdraw funds it needs to stay fuelled.

Auto-restoring from the treasury. The next claim inflow or the hourly check (in ~18 min) will convert treasury funds via the AMM and buy cycles to refill the reserve. Withdrawals are paused until the reserve is whole. Anyone can also top up now via the public link.
