- Mathematically modelled house edge embedded in payout odds.
- Automated reconciliation on every withdrawal ensures transparency.
Plinko
- 2% house edge applied to all prize paths while keeping core odds intact.
- Fee collected automatically on every payout for operational efficiency.
- Configurable ladders enable future promotional pricing.
Blackjack
- Configurable 2% house edge woven into core payout math.
- Supports adaptive risk parameters driven by liquidity and volatility.
- Designed to surface analytics for real-time tuning.
Texas Hold'em
- 3% rake on all pots, with flexible 2-5% band for special events.

- Tournament infrastructure reuses settlement logic for efficiency.
Revenue Optimization Blueprint
A layered monetization roadmap balancing player delight, treasury growth, and sustainable economics.
Multi-Tier Fee Structure
In ProgressMove from flat fees to tiered pricing aligned with bankroll tiers and loyalty status.
- Current baseline: 2% withdrawal fee.
- Proposed: VIP-aware tiers that reward retention and volume.
struct FeeTier {
uint256 minBalance; // Minimum balance for tier
uint256 feeBps; // Fee in basis points
uint256 vipDiscount; // VIP discount percentage
}
FeeTier[] feeTiers = [
{0, 200, 0}, // 2.0% for small balances
{100e18, 150, 0}, // 1.5% for medium balances
{1000e18, 100, 10} // 1.0% + 10% VIP discount for whales
];Dynamic House Edge
Design StageTune house edge ranges in response to player behavior, liquidity health, and volatility.
- Feeds on analytics: volatility, player clustering, bankroll depth.
- Maintains player trust via published guardrails and governance.
Tournament & Event Monetization
Launch PlanningRecurring tournaments with entry rake grow the treasury and attract premium players.
- Projected $5,000 monthly contribution from tournament fees.
- Event playbooks double as marketing funnels for whales.
struct Tournament {
uint256 entryFee; // Entry fee (goes to house)
uint256 prizePool; // Total prize pool
uint256 houseCut; // House takes percentage
uint256 startTime;
bool isActive;
};VIP Loyalty Architecture
BlueprintLifetime volume unlocks fee discounts, bonuses, and concierge-level support.
- Progressive perks increase average revenue per player.
- Integrates with cross-game incentives to amplify engagement.
struct VIPLevel {
uint256 minVolume; // Minimum lifetime volume
uint256 feeDiscount; // Fee reduction in basis points
uint256 bonusRate; // Bonus token rate
bool prioritySupport; // Access to priority features
};Cross-Game Incentives
ConceptBonuses for engaging with the full suite of games extend lifetime value.
- Up to 25% bonus for multi-game activity.
- Improves retention while diversifying revenue mix.
Decentralization Snapshot
Trustless Progress ReportA candid view of which casino modules already run trustlessly and where owner controls or centralized infrastructure still exist.
| Game / Surface | Player Inactivity Control | On-Chain Settlement | Owner / RNG Controls | Remaining Trust Assumptions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blackjack | `forceEndGameDueToInactivity` | Bets & payouts immutably tracked on-chain | RNG contract + lifecycle overrides remain owner-gated | House keys can influence randomness, bet limits, manual resets |
| Cash Holdโem | `forcePlayerTimeout`, `forceResetFinishedGame` | Chips, pots, rake, and history permanently on-chain | Owner configures rake, RNG, evaluator contracts | No keeper to auto-trigger failsafes; treasury still custodial |
| Tournament Holdโem | `checkTimeouts`, `forcePlayerTimeout` | Tournament eliminations, prize flow, rake splitting | TournamentManager ownership controls registration & payouts | Randomness + prize settings centralized; automation pending |
| Roulette | `forceCancelRoundDueToInactivity` | Round data, bet refunds, and rake on-chain | RNG + supported-token curation controlled by owner | Requires trusted RNG operator and manual token approvals |
| Plinko | Instant play (no inactivity window) | All wagers and payouts executed via contract | House edge, multipliers, RNG seed adjustable by owner | Randomness and edge tuning still centralized levers |
| Shared Infrastructure | n/a | Player balances, burner routing, history | Deployment keys, burner config, token minting | Need verifiable deployments, governance, automation |
- Player-triggered inactivity failsafes live for Blackjack, cash Hold'em, and tournament tables.
- On-chain accounting covers balances, wagers, pot splits, and historical logs across every title.
- Burner routing is enforced inside contract withdrawal paths for all released games.
- Comprehensive security audit completed with Slither static analysis across all contracts.
- CEI (Checks-Effects-Interactions) pattern enforced in all critical fund transfer paths.
- ReentrancyGuard protection active on all external-facing game functions.
- Randomness sources use commit-reveal scheme but operator holds reveal keys.
- House/owner roles configure rake percentages and supported token lists.
- Timeout functions are public but require manual triggeringโno keeper automation yet.
- Integrate verifiable randomness (Chainlink VRF, drand) or burn RNG ownership keys.
- Move rake, token-list, and tournament controls to a timelock or immutable governance module.
- Ship open-source keepers/bounties so stalled games auto-trigger failsafes without human babysitting.
- Redeploy updated contracts, publish signed deployment metadata, and sync the UI ABI bundle.
- Extend testing/docs to assert decentralization guarantees for every game surface.
Tiered Loyalty ยท On-Chain Blueprint
VIP perks only matter if players trust the accounting. Our loyalty vault design (mirrored on the loyalty simulator) pushes volume tracking, tier resolution, and rakeback payouts entirely on-chain while keeping the UX approachable.
- Phase A โ Deploy loyalty vault + game hooks on testnet; validate events vs. `/loyalty` simulator.
- Phase B โ Switch `/loyalty` to live contract reads and enable manual claims from the vault.
- Phase C โ Automate treasury funding, ship auto-compound toggles, and publish CSV/graph endpoints.
Player guarantees
- Rolling volume + tier proofs stored on-chain
- Keeper bots optional (not required) for loyalty accuracy
- Claims routed directly to the vault contract
Rolling on-chain ledger
Loyalty Vault
- Records per-player 30-day wagering totals + tier thresholds as immutable structs.
- Holds rakeback treasury and exposes `pendingRewards` + `currentTier` getters.
- Emits `VolumeLogged` / `TierUpgraded` events for analytics and audit trails.
Trustless funding
Game Hooks & Treasury
- Each game contract calls `recordVolume` once chips are irreversibly committed.
- Rake streams directly to the vault via `fundTreasury` so payouts stay solvent.
- Rolling window math (ring buffer or exponential decay) keeps stale volume from inflating tiers.
Self-serve payouts
Player UX & Governance
- Front-end reads vault state through wagmi and routes โClaimโ to `claimRewards()`.
- Auto-compound + CSV exports derive from eventsโno privileged admin scripts.
- Tier tables + parameters governed by multisig/timelock to avoid stealth edits.
