Dev update for @letshaveaword:
🎯 Economics are now finalized and enforced onchain
I’ve locked the canonical prize-pool economics and deployed the upgraded smart contract. All payouts now resolve atomically onchain in a single transaction.
Prize pool TL;DR
• 80% → jackpot winner (secret word guesser)
• 10% → top-10 guessers
• 10% → referrer (or redistributed if none)
• No offchain accounting; no manual payouts
Referral logic
• Winner has a referrer → referrer gets 10%
• Winner has no referrer →
• 7.5% boosts the top-10 pool
• 2.5% seeds the next round
🔝10
Every round, the top-10 guessers get paid — even if they don’t solve the word.
I finalized a split that hopefully:
• Makes ranks 6–10 always feel worth it
• Rewards 1–5 progressively more
• Scales cleanly as prize pools grow
At typical pool sizes, ranks 6–10 will reliably earn at least one guess pack back, while ranks 1–5 capture most of the upside.
And everything is deterministic, non-reentrant, and verifiable on Basescan. Onward.
