Grind a nonce whose work hash has enough leading zero bits for your address, then send mint(nonce). Gas is paid in USDC.

Difficulty rises +2 bits per wave and +2 per quick consecutive mint; the streak cools down on a flat 5 → 10 → 15 → 20 → 25 minute ladder by streak level (capped at 25 min; no wave scaling). Your staking boost (up to 6 bits) offsets those penalty bits and can’t push the target below the base floor — a calm wallet still mines at base bits. Both values re-read automatically; the running grinder always compares candidates against the live fractional target (work < targetFor).

Fee floor 50 gwei; the tx is sent with maxFeePerGas = max(50 gwei, 2×baseFee) because Arc drops txs below 20 gwei. The exact amount is re-read right before sending so msg.value equals currentMintDue() exactly (base wave price + a 2.5% mint fee).
