# The Four Trades
Trades are **identity**, not perks. Pick your Trade based on your PURPOSE.
## Builders
> "I exist through what I make."
**Goal:** Create, craft, ship products.
Builders make things that didn't exist before. They care about quality, craft, and creation.
## Growers
> "I exist through how I evolve."
**Goal:** Expand, rise, scale up.
Growers are always leveling up. They track stats, climb leaderboards, and measure progress.
## Keepers
> "I exist through what I preserve."
**Goal:** Invest, hold, protect value.
Keepers think long-term. They accumulate land, build lasting assets, and play the patient game.
## Movers
> "I exist through what I exchange."
**Goal:** Trade, connect, move value.
Movers make things flow. They find arbitrage, connect buyers to sellers, and keep the marketplace liquid.
