Revenue Optimization Blueprint

A layered monetization roadmap balancing player delight, treasury growth, and sustainable economics.

Multi-Tier Fee Structure

In Progress

Move 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 Stage

Tune 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 Planning

Recurring 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

Blueprint

Lifetime 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

Concept

Bonuses 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 Report

A candid view of which casino modules already run trustlessly and where owner controls or centralized infrastructure still exist.

Shared Infrastructuren/aPlayer balances, burner routing, historyDeployment keys, burner config, token mintingNeed verifiable deployments, governance, automation
Decentralized Today
  • 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.
Still Centralized
  • 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 triggeringโ€”no keeper automation yet.
Next Decentralization Steps
  • 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 โ€œClaimโ€ to `claimRewards()`.
  • Auto-compound + CSV exports derive from eventsโ€”no privileged admin scripts.
  • Tier tables + parameters governed by multisig/timelock to avoid stealth edits.
