The rules
How it works
There is one throne. Whoever holds it gets this entire homepage: their site, their name, their link. The price to seize it starts high and falls every second — it halves every ten minutes until it hits the $1 floor, where it waits. Pay the price, take the throne. Your successor's price starts at 1.5× what you paid. That's the whole game. No algorithm. No votes.
Paying
Click seize and your price is frozen for 90 seconds while you check out. You pay your frozen price even if the public price falls further — you agreed to it. If someone completes payment before you, your card is not charged: the hold is released and you can try again at the new, lower price. First confirmed payment wins. Every sale is final. There are no refunds for being dethroned; being dethroned is the product.
What you may show
No illegal content, no NSFW, no malware, no scams, no hate. We screenshot your site rather than embed it, and we may remove any reign at our sole discretion, without refund, without debate. Removed reigns stay in the history as “removed by moderation”. Decision policy: remove fast, argue never.
The fine print
You must be 18 or older (or of legal age where you live) to pay. A reign on THRONE is not an endorsement of the listed site — we showcase whoever pays, that is the entire editorial policy. Screenshots and reign history are public and stay public. The stats on the homepage are real.
