"To everyone. I fucked up. And I am sorry.
I'll make it right this time."
Nomi MasterChef is a yield-farming protocol built around $NOMI, live on SushiSwap on Robinhood Chain. Liquidity providers stake their SushiSwap V3 LP positions and earn a new token, $SUSHI2, minted every second by the MasterChef contract. In 2020, the original recipe had one poisoned ingredient — a 10% dev share, minted quietly alongside every farmer's harvest. This kitchen serves the same menu with that ingredient removed: no presale, no team allocation, no dev share, and no farming before the publicly announced start time. Everyone starts at the same counter — including the chef.
Robinhood Chain blocks are ~130× faster than Ethereum's in 2020 (~10 per second), so per-block numbers are recalibrated to keep the same daily schedule as the original:
| Base emission | 1 SUSHI2 / block · ~864,000 / day |
| Genesis bonus (first 12,000,000 blocks · ~2 weeks) | 10× → 10 SUSHI2 / block |
| SUSHI2-NOMI pool weight | 2× allocation points |
| Dev share | 0% — none, fair launch |
| Max supply | Uncapped · mintable by MasterChef only |
| Farming start | To be announced |
The 10× genesis window exists for one reason: the earliest liquidity takes the most risk, so it earns the most SUSHI2. When the window closes, emissions settle at the base rate.
While your V3 LP position is staked in the farm, the trading fees it earns are not returned to you — you earn SUSHI2 emissions instead. 100% of collected fees are swapped into SUSHI2 on the open market and streamed to NOMI stakers at the Bar:
| 1 · Farmers stake V3 LP | earn SUSHI2 emissions |
| 2 · Farm collects positions' trading fees | WETH / NOMI / USDG |
| 3 · Maker market-buys SUSHI2 with fees | constant buy pressure |
| 4 · Bar streams SUSHI2 to NOMI stakers | real yield, no inflation |
Emissions pay the farmers. Fees pay the bar. Every pool on the menu pairs against NOMI, so all farming deepens NOMI liquidity.
September 2020. Two weeks after inventing DeFi's greatest farm, Chef Nomi swapped the entire dev fund — millions of dollars of SUSHI — for ETH in a single afternoon. The token crashed. The community revolted. Then came the tweet the whole industry remembers: "To everyone. I fucked up. And I am sorry." Days later, the chef returned every last ETH to the treasury.
This project is built on that apology. The temptation is not timelocked here — it is deleted: the contract contains no dev mint at all. No chef can empty the till, because the till doesn't exist. MasterChef ownership sits behind a timelock, SUSHI2 can only ever be minted by the farm contract, and your staked LP NFTs remain withdrawable at all times — no migrator, no admin path to user funds. Contract addresses will be published and verified before farming starts. The chef fucked up once. Making it right is the whole point.
