# How it works? ### **Entry and Setup** * **Purchase a GoldPesa Miner NFT:** Players join by buying a GoldPesa Miner NFT for $10 USDC. * **Automatic GPX Conversion:** The GoldPesa Mines smart contract swaps the $10 USDC for GPX and stakes these tokens inside the GoldPesa Mine. ### **Level Progression** * **Randomized Selection:** For every three Miners entering a level, one is chosen at random (via Chainlink VRF) to advance to the next level. * **Gradual Difficulty:** This system balances the pace of progression and prevents unfair advantages for early participants. ### **Staking or Cashing Out** * **Player Choice:** At any point, a Miner can exit and redeem their original share in GPX plus any accrued rewards. * **Ongoing Participation:** Alternatively, players can keep their Miner active in the game, aiming to reach deeper levels for higher rewards. **4. Staking Rewards and Fee Structure** * **GPX Transaction Fee:** Every GPX buy, sell, or transfer incurs a 1% fee, 0.25% to the GoldPesa Mines Smart Contract. * **Growing GPX Reserves:** These continuous fee contributions increase the total GPX in the GoldPesa Mine, amplifying potential rewards over time. **5. The GoldPesa Mine Levels** * **10 Levels, 10% Each:** The Mine’s total GPX treasure is divided into 10 equal portions (10% each excluding Level 0). * **Fewer Miners, Bigger Share:** At deeper levels, there are fewer Miners, so the potential rewards grow exponentially for those who advance. **6. Permanence of the Game** * **Immutable Smart Contracts:** Both the GoldPesa Mine and the GPX smart contract are fully decentralized and cannot be upgraded or altered. * **Ever-Growing Pool:** The Mine receives 0.25% of all GPX trading volume indefinitely, ensuring rewards continue to accumulate. **7. Potential for Significant Returns** * **High-Level Advantage:** If a Miner NFT reaches level 10 with no other Miners present, it alone receives 10% of the 0.25% GPX trading volume, potentially making that single Miner NFT extremely valuable. * **Long-Term Rewards:** The perpetual 0.25% contribution to the Mine supports continued growth in rewards. **8. Flexible Cash-Out Options** * **Anytime Exit & Earnings Retrieval:** Players can leave the GoldPesa Mine at any point, receiving their initial GPX staking amount along with any accumulated rewards based on their current level. * **Fair Launch & Robust Liquidity:** Because GPX is fair launched and supported by the GoldPesa Liquidity Protocol, miners can confidently sell their tokens on Uniswap V4 at a favorable market rate, converting GPX to USDC with minimal slippage and strong price support. **9. NFT Ownership and Trading** * **Sellable on Marketplaces:** A GoldPesa Miner NFT retains its position within the Mine if sold on OpenSea or any NFT marketplace. * **Passing on the Potential:** The new owner inherits any ongoing earnings tied to the NFT’s level, while the original owner pockets the sale proceeds. **10. Security and Transparency** * **Trustless Execution:** All game rules, entry, level progression, rewards, and payouts, are enforced by automated, immutable smart contracts on the Base Blockchain. * **Fully Verifiable:** No human intervention is possible, and every transaction is visible on-chain. By merging gaming and DeFi elements, GoldPesa Mines provides a high-reward, fair-play environment. Whether players seek short-term gains or aim to climb the levels for larger payouts, the transparent mechanics ensure everyone participates on equal terms. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
