Every player adds 1 USDC to the pot. A 5% protocol fee and 0.1 USDC resolver reward are deducted, then the rest goes to winners on the winning cell.
Cells with many players give you better win odds but smaller payouts. Lonely cells pay the entire pot if they win.
Every resolved round mints $ZERO tokens to winners on top of USDC. TGE is deferred until meaningful user milestones — it's a gameplay reward, not a speculative asset.
1 in 100 rounds is a Motherlode. Winners get 10× the normal USDC payout plus 10× $ZERO emission. Determined by secondary VRF derivation.
