Abstract
Pixel Pony introduces a straightforward, transparent gaming ecosystem that combines instant single-player horse racing with sustainable tokenomics. Built on Base Mainnet with security-hardened smart contracts, the protocol generates revenue through platform fees while protecting players and the ecosystem with an innovative pull-based jackpot failsafe system.
1. Protocol Overview
Game Mechanics
- Instant racing: Bet placed → Race executes immediately → Result determined
- Single-player focus: Each bet creates its own race
- 16 horses per race with enhanced on-chain randomness (10 entropy sources)
- Fair multipliers: 10x (1st), 2.5x (2nd), 1x (3rd place)
- Pure on-chain execution: No external dependencies
- Lottery system with progressive jackpot
Key Innovation: PULL-BASED JACKPOT FAILSAFE
Pixel Pony protects the gaming ecosystem with an innovative failsafe mechanism:
- Jackpot automatically triggers distribution if it exceeds 50% of game supply
- Players claim their proportional share (based on total wagered)
- Each player pays only their own gas (~$2-5)
- Scalable to unlimited players (no gas limit issues)
- Fully autonomous after deployment
- Prevents game supply lockup
2. Tokenomics Structure
Total Supply: 100 Trillion PONY Tokens
Initial Distribution:
- Game Contract: 50T tokens (50%) - For gameplay rewards and payouts
- Liquidity Pool: 40T tokens (40%) - For DEX liquidity
- Marketing: 5T tokens (5%) - Marketing and growth initiatives
- Dev Operations: 5T tokens (5%) - Development and operations
Security Features:
- ✅ No minting capability after deployment
- ✅ Fixed pragma (Solidity 0.8.20) - No compiler variations
- ✅ Zero address validation - All inputs validated
- ✅ ReentrancyGuard - Protection against reentrancy attacks
- ✅ Checked transfers - All token transfers verified
- ✅ Gas optimized - Efficient execution
- ✅ Pull-based claims - Scalable failsafe system
- ✅ Ownership renounceable - Can become fully immutable
- ✅ Transparent - Verified source code on Basescan
3. Revenue Model
Platform Fees (10% of all bets in PONY)
Fee Distribution:
- Dev Wallet: 50% of platform fee (5% of total bets)
- Marketing Wallet: 25% of platform fee (2.5% of total bets)
- Jackpot Pool: 25% of platform fee (2.5% of total bets)
Remaining 90% goes to:
- Winner Payouts: Direct payouts to winning bettors (10x, 2.5x, 1x)
- Game Operations: Sustainable gameplay
ETH Entry Fees (0.0005 ETH per bet)
- Dev Wallet: 50% of ETH fees
- Marketing Wallet: 50% of ETH fees
4. Player Economics
Win Probabilities
- 3 winning positions out of 16 horses
- ~18.75% chance to win something
- Fair odds with house edge
Expected Value (per 10B PONY bet)
- 1st place (6.25% chance): 100B PONY
- 2nd place (6.25% chance): 25B PONY
- 3rd place (6.25% chance): 10B PONY
- Loss (81.25% chance): 0 PONY
- Platform takes: 1B PONY (10%)
- Expected return: ~8.4B PONY (84% RTP)
5. Technical Implementation
Enhanced Randomness - 10 Entropy Sources
- block.timestamp
- block.prevrandao
- block.number
- raceId
- horseId
- msg.sender
- tx.gasprice
- totalRaces
