# Create TORUS

* How it Works:
  * Create TORUS over 1–88 days (non-reversible).
  * Pay with TitanX or ETH (ETH cost based on TitanX’s Time-Weighted Average Price).
  * Choose Power (1 to 1,000,000) to determine token output and cost.
* Mechanics:
  * Starting Creation ratio: 10,000,000 TitanX = 1 TORUS.
  * Daily Creation Ratio Increase: TitanX to Torus Creation Ratio increases daily by 0.08%; Created tokens decrease by 0.08% daily
  * Formula: (Current100PowerTokens \* (EarningLength/88)) / (100/TotalPower)
    * Example: Day 1, 10,000 Power, 1 day = 11.36 TORUS; 88 days = 1,000 TORUS.
* Costs:
  * Static TitanX costs (e.g., 100 Power = fixed TitanX amount).
  * ETH costs rise with difficulty (see below).
  * Example: 1 Power = 1M TitanX (0.1 TORUS); 1M Power = 1T TitanX (100,000 TORUS).
* Difficulty:
  * Creating gets harder over time:
    * 5 years: 331% cost increase (4.31x).
    * 10 years: 1,756% cost increase (18.56x).
    * 20 years: 34,497% cost increase (345.97x).

Creating is ideal when TORUS prices are high relative to TitanX, offering high ROI. It becomes less profitable when prices drop, favouring Staking.\
