# Lotteries & Jackpots

The **House Games** lottery system is your chance to win massive bonus prizes — even when you’re not the top wagerer on the wheel.\
Every single spin on the platform contributes to a shared rewards pool that feeds into **two lottery draws:**\
🎟 **Daily Jackpot** and 🪙 **Weekly Jackpot.**

Both lotteries are 100 % automated, transparent, and powered by the same smart fee routing system that runs every game round.

### Where the Jackpot Money Comes From

Each time a player bets on the wheel, **0.9 % of their wager** automatically goes into the **lottery and rewards pool.**

Example:

| Total Wager            | Fee % | Added to Jackpot |
| ---------------------- | ----- | ---------------- |
| 10 SOL                 | 0.9 % | 0.09 SOL         |
| 200 SOL (daily volume) | 0.9 % | 1.8 SOL          |
| 1 000 SOL (big day)    | 0.9 % | 9 SOL            |

The pool constantly refills — every spin across the platform increases it.

These funds are tracked in real time via Solana transactions and displayed live on the **Rewards Dashboard** as:

```
Daily Jackpot: 4.37 SOL 💰
Weekly Jackpot: 15.22 SOL 🏆
```

> 93.5 % of every pot goes directly to players.\
> The remaining 6.5 % funds the platform, rewards, and jackpots — meaning **you’re literally fueling your own potential wins.**

***

### 2. Daily Lottery

The **Daily Jackpot** gives players something to look forward to *every single day*.

| Detail            | Description                                                                  |
| ----------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 🎟 **Entry Cost** | 200 points                                                                   |
| 🕐 **Draw Time**  | Every 00:00 UTC (reset daily)                                                |
| 💎 **Free Entry** | All **Gold+ ranks** and **Tier 1+ holders** get one free entry automatically |
| 💰 **Prize Pool** | \~70 % of daily pool balance                                                 |
| 🪩 **Winner**     | Chosen via weighted odds (more points = more entries)                        |

#### Example:

If the daily pool holds **10 SOL**, the prize is roughly **7 SOL**, distributed instantly to the winner’s wallet.

> You can buy multiple entries to increase your odds, and rank/tier bonuses apply.

***

### 3. Weekly Lottery

The **Weekly Jackpot** is the grand event of House Games — a bigger pot, a bigger prize, and a much bigger moment.

| Detail            | Description                                      |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| 🎟 **Entry Cost** | 500 points                                       |
| 🕐 **Draw Time**  | Every **Sunday at 00:00 UTC**                    |
| 💰 **Prize Pool** | \~30 % of all accumulated weekly funds           |
| 🪩 **Winner**     | Weighted odds based on rank + holder multipliers |

#### Example:

If the weekly pool reaches **50 SOL**, the total prize is about **35 SOL**.\
The winner receives their share instantly, on-chain — no waiting, no claims page.

> Keep an eye on the countdown timer in the Rewards Dashboard — it updates live, and you can see how much SOL is in each pool before you enter.

***

### ⚖4. Weighted Odds (Fair but Competitive)

House Games uses a **weighted-entry system** — not pure randomness.\
That means the more points or perks you have, the heavier your entries count.

| Player | Rank    | Holder Tier | Entries | Multiplier | Weighted Entries |
| ------ | ------- | ----------- | ------- | ---------- | ---------------- |
| Alice  | Bronze  | None        | 5       | ×1         | 5                |
| Bob    | Gold    | Tier 2      | 5       | ×2         | 10               |
| Carol  | Diamond | Tier 4      | 5       | ×3         | 15               |

#### Breakdown:

* Alice (Bronze): 5 / 30 → 16.6 % chance
* Bob (Gold + Tier 2): 10 / 30 → 33.3 % chance
* Carol (Diamond + Tier 4): 15 / 30 → 50 % chance

Even the lowest-rank player can still win — but higher tiers are **mathematically advantaged**.

***

### 5. Earning Points to Enter

If you want to grind entries instead of buying them, every wager builds your point balance automatically:

| Action                 | Points   |
| ---------------------- | -------- |
| 1 SOL wagered          | 200 pts  |
| Win a round            | +300 pts |
| Referral’s 1 SOL wager | +25 pts  |
| Daily login            | +50 pts  |

#### Example:

If you bet 5 SOL and win one round:

```
(5 × 200) + 300 + 50 = 1 350 points
```

That’s already enough for **6 daily entries** or **2 weekly entries**.

***

### 6. How the Draw Works (Behind the Scenes)

1. **Entries Close** at the scheduled time (00:00 UTC).
2. **All entries are hashed** and stored in Redis with weights applied.
3. A **secure random seed** selects the winning weighted index.
4. The prize is sent **instantly** to the winner’s Solana wallet.
5. The pool resets and begins accumulating for the next draw.

No manual intervention.\
No claims process.\
No hidden manipulation.

***

### 7. Strategy Tips

* **Play daily:** Consistent wagers = steady point flow = daily tickets.
* **Hold $HOUSE:** Tiers 2+ grant free entries and boosted odds.
* **Climb ranks:** Gold gives 1 free entry/day; Platinum + Diamond multiply your chances.
* **Compound boosts:** Rank × Tier multipliers are *multiplicative*, not additive.

Example:\
Gold (+10 %) × Tier 2 (+10 %) = 1.1 × 1.1 = **1.21×** points.\
More points → more tickets → higher odds.

***

### 8. Visibility & Hype

Every lottery has a **live counter** in the Rewards Dashboard:

```
🔥 Daily Jackpot: 5.84 SOL | Draw in 3 h 12 m
💎 Weekly Jackpot: 27.16 SOL | Draw in 1 day 6 h
```

After each draw:

* Winner’s wallet (shortened address) is shown publicly.
* Pot size + odds summary appear under “Recent Winners”.
* Winners get special animations and a badge for 24 hours.

> House Games keeps jackpots public and exciting — every spin pushes the next one higher.

***

### 9. Example Scenarios

#### Example A — Daily Grind Player

* Bets 10 SOL total per day → earns 2 000 pts
* Uses 1 000 pts for 5 entries
* Gold Rank (+10 %) = 5.5 entries weighted
* Tier 2 (+10 %) = 6.05 entries weighted\
  ➡ \~6 % higher win probability per day than a non-holder.

***

#### Example B — Casual Whale

* Bets 20 SOL every other day → 4 000 pts
* Buys 10 entries into weekly pot.
* Diamond (+20 %) × Tier 4 (+20 %) = 1.44× weight\
  ➡ 10 × 1.44 = 14.4 weighted entries — 44 % stronger odds.

***

#### Example C — Small Holder, Big Win

* Bronze Rank, Tier 1 Holder.
* 3 entries daily (2 bought + 1 free).
* Despite low odds (\~7 %), hits the daily 6 SOL jackpot.\
  ➡ Turns 0.02 SOL worth of entries into 6 SOL — fully transparent on Solana Explorer.

***

### 10. Key Takeaways

* 0.9 % of every wager fuels the jackpot system.
* Two lottery types: **Daily (200 pts)** and **Weekly (500 pts)**.
* Rank + Holder tiers multiply your winning odds.
* Free entries start at **Gold Rank** or **Tier 1**.
* Prizes are **instant, transparent, and on-chain.**

> The more you play, the more points you earn.\
> The more points you have, the more chances you get.\
> Every spin brings the next jackpot closer — and it could be yours.
