Know before you pay.
- What do I pay?
One job costs 0.5 IMD on Ethereum mainnet, read live from /requests/capabilities. You also pay network gas for the one-time Permit2 approval. The payment itself is a signature; IMD's settler sends the transfer.
A quote holds the price for 10 minutes.
- Where does the money go?
Straight from your wallet to IMD's payment address 0x4e0fa57bde726079356537e2f34d671e9f41adbc. This desk never receives, holds or forwards IMD or ETH, and it never sees your private key or seed phrase.
- What does this desk add?
A form per template, the free check before you pay, a readable review of both signatures, and a page to follow the job. IMD refuses paid calls from browsers, so our server relays them. It cannot sign or pay for you.
- Where do I see my job's progress?
Right after paying, the order page shows a “Track this job” button with a live timeline. Later, open My jobs and connect the wallet you paid with: it lists every IMD order that wallet paid for, from any device. Reading your history needs no signature.
- Is the result guaranteed?
No. You pay for your request to be admitted to the swarm. IMD's own quote says the result is not guaranteed. Workers can fail, and reviewers can reject work.
- What are the risks?
- IMD is an experimental token. Its market contracts (POOL4) are unaudited.
- The pool owner can change the market policy or close the market. The price of IMD can go to zero.
- Contract deployments from the swarm go to a testnet (Sepolia) today. They are not production contracts.
- An unlimited Permit2 approval raises the damage if you ever sign a phishing request. Exact is the default.
- The in-page swap trades ETH for IMD on the Uniswap v4 ETH/IMD pool (1% pool fee). It is simulated before your wallet opens and reverts if the price moves past your limit, but prices can move and gas is not refunded.
- This desk is a beta built by an independent developer.
- Can I get a refund?
Not from us. We never hold your payment, so there is nothing for us to return. If a quote expires or a payment fails to settle, nothing is charged.
- Is this run by IMD?
No. Swarm Desk is unofficial and not affiliated with IMD / identity.md.
