Why does Sicilian Whiskey use a backlog system?

To protect the integrity of the manual ritual. The backlog acts as a shield that prevents saturation of the Atelier, ensuring each bottle receives the necessary attention without team wear.

What is the exact dynamic price formula?

The asset value is calculated by the function: Base Price * 1.01^Backlog Days. Each wait day recorded in the Ledger increases the value by 1% compounded.

What is meant by 'Nominal Capacity'?

It is the unbreachable physical limit of 10 units produced and shipped per day. This parameter defines the speed of backlog erosion in the Ledger.

Can the price drop if no one buys?

Yes. The system reduces the backlog by one day every 24 working hours. If no new orders come in, the price naturally decreases towards the base, reflecting real availability.

Can I 'skip' the backlog queue?

The only certified way is participation in a physical experience (Tasting or BBQ). The 'Backlog Skip Protocol' allows immediate on-site purchase from the reserve stock.

What happens to my order if the backlog increases after purchase?

Nothing. The price is crystallized at the time of fiscal handshake. If the value rises during your wait, your asset gains oracle value even before delivery.

How is the shipping date communicated?

At the moment of block issuance in the Ledger, you receive an 'Oracle Mail' with the exact departure date of the asset, calculated based on your queue position.

Does the backlog also influence the experiences?

No. The experiences are 'Off-Chain' events. Their price is fixed and does not contribute to backlog generation for physical assets.

Why is the backlog called 'Artisan's Shield'?

Because it prevents the industrial logic of maximization. Sicilian Whiskey chooses slowness as a parameter of quality and respect for the individual.

Is there a maximum limit for backlog days?

Technically no, but the Oracle monitors the nodes. If the wait exceeds critical parameters, the system may temporarily suspend new allocations to rebalance the Atelier.

Is the 1.01^x formula public?

Yes. Algorithmic transparency is part of the SSOT protocol. Anyone can verify the correctness of the price by consulting the blocks in the Ledger.

Do B2B orders influence the backlog for private customers?

We apply the 50:1 rule. A 50-minibar flask box occupies only one nominal capacity slot, minimizing the impact of bulk orders on the retail queue.

What happens if I cancel a queued order?

The slot is freed and the global backlog decreases instantly for all subsequent users, proportionally reducing the live dynamic price.

Is the wait in the queue considered 'Aging'?

In a broad sense yes. The whiskey continues its molecular stabilization in the Atelier until the exact bottling day certified by your PIN.

Does the backlog also apply to Oaken?

Oaken fluctuates in dynamic parity with the backlog: if the whiskey price rises, the purchasing power of your Oaken increases to maintain Vault balance.

How is priority handled in case of simultaneous orders?

Priority is defined by the timestamp of payment validation in the Ledger (First-In, First-Out).

Is the backlog system active 24/7?

The oracle calculation is always active, but the physical erosion of the queue (10 btg/day) follows the operational calendar of the Caltagirone Atelier.

Can I monitor my position in the queue?

Yes, within the 'Logistics Status' section of your Vault, you view the remaining days and the preparation status of the asset.

Does the backlog include courier shipping times?

No. The backlog counts the days until physical exit from the Atelier. Transit times (24/48h for Italy) begin post-handshake with the courier.

Who designed the Backlog algorithm?

It is a creation of the Malfa Directorate, inspired by the principles of flow physics and regenerative economy.

3 Highlights

Dossier 01

The Artisan's Shield

The queue protects the process and prevents quality degradation.

No artificial acceleration of production.
Load control to avoid operational stress.
Waiting as part of the certified value, not inefficiency.

Dossier 02

Real Queue Engine

Planning uses paid/packed orders sorted by updatedAt and distributes them over daily slots.
