Mining as a transparent onchain game.
GTAMINER is a 30-tile mining game designed for Stable, an EVM-compatible Layer 1 where USDT0 is used as the native gas and settlement asset. A player chooses one or more tiles, assigns an equal native USDT0 amount to each tile, and submits one wallet transaction. Verifiable randomness resolves both the winning tile and an independent progressive-jackpot roll.
Every settled mine credits points and scheduled GTAMINER token rewards. A normal tile hit or jackpot hit additionally credits native USDT0. Eligible wallets can redeem points for private reward-code delivery without connecting a social account. Funds for normal prizes, the progressive jackpot, rewards, buybacks, and operations are accounted for independently.
Simple to play. Explicit in accounting.
Wallet-native ownership
A wallet initiates mining, owns credited balances, requests reward redemption, and reveals eligible codes. No social login, direct message, or public winner form is required.
Separated balances
Normal prizes, jackpot liquidity, reward inventory, buybacks, operations, pending rounds, and player claims are maintained as distinct accounting categories.
Reconstructable outcomes
The round identifier, tile selection, player seed, randomness result, winning tile, jackpot result, and credited rewards are intended to be reconstructable from verified contracts and events.
No hidden yield promise
Mining probabilities are disclosed. Proposed staking yield must be based on realized, funded rewards and must never be presented as a fixed or guaranteed APY.
One dollar-linked asset for value and gas.
Stable Mainnet is an EVM-compatible network with chain ID 988. USDT0 is the network's native gas token and native value-transfer asset. The protocol therefore accepts mining stakes through native value, denominates prize pools in USDT0, and credits USDT0 rewards without requiring a separate volatile gas asset.
Stable exposes USDT0 through both native balance semantics and an ERC-20 interface. GTAMINER game accounting uses native 18-decimal USDT0. Exchange and liquidity integrations use the supported ERC-20 interface and its documented decimal conventions. These paths must remain explicitly separated in deployment and testing.
Stable documentation specifies USDT0-based gas and does not require a separate priority-tip asset. Client transaction configuration must follow the current Stable network specification at the time of launch.
The 30-tile mining loop.
Normal-prize mathematics
Let n be the number of selected tiles and a be the equal USDT0 amount assigned to each selected tile. Total stake is S = n * a. One of 30 tiles is selected with equal probability. A normal hit pays 18 times the amount assigned to one tile.
P(hit) = n / 30 R(hit) = 18a E[R] = (n / 30) * 18a = 0.60S
Selecting more tiles increases the frequency of normal hits but does not change the expected normal return as a percentage of total stake. The normal-prize component is mathematically aligned with the 60% normal-prize allocation.
Liability reservation
Before a mine is accepted, the game reserves the worst-case normal-prize shortfall associated with that pending request. If available prize liquidity cannot cover all reserved liabilities, the transaction reverts before accepting the player's USDT0. Settlement must not silently reduce the displayed 18x normal payout.
Stale-round refunds
A randomness request that remains unresolved beyond the published timeout can be refunded. The current contract design uses a 24-hour timeout. Refunded rounds receive no points or token emission and release their reserved reward and prize liabilities.
A separate roll that compounds with activity.
The VI Progressive Jackpot is resolved independently from the normal tile result. Every valid paid ticket contributes to the jackpot and receives a jackpot roll, whether or not the selected tile wins the normal prize.
| Parameter | Current design | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Contribution | 15% | Share of every settled mine added to the jackpot |
| Base chance | 0.05% | Initial chance per paid ticket unit |
| Pressure ramp | +0.01% | Added per ticket after each 50 settled units without a hit |
| Per-ticket cap | 1.00% | Hard ceiling on the progressively increased per-ticket chance |
| Transaction cap | 25.00% | Maximum effective jackpot chance for one transaction |
| Winner payout | 70% | Share of the jackpot credited to the winning wallet |
| Next seed | 30% | Share retained to seed the next progressive jackpot |
chancePerTicket = min(base + pressure, 1.00%) effectiveChance = min(chancePerTicket * ticketUnits, 25.00%)
A jackpot can resolve only after the jackpot pool reaches its published minimum. The deployment value must be disclosed before real-value play begins.
Every settled USDT0 unit has one destination.
| Destination | Share | Protocol purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Normal prize pool | 60% | Liquidity-reserved 18x tile payouts |
| VI Progressive Jackpot | 15% | Cumulative jackpot and next-round seed |
| Reward-code vault | 10% | Acquisition of eligible GTA VI-related reward inventory |
| Buyback vault | 10% | Transparent GTAMINER buybacks |
| Operations | 5% | Randomness, RPC, audits, support, compliance, and legal operations |
Normal-prize and jackpot balances are not general treasury funds and cannot be swept through treasury-withdrawal functions. Gift-card, buyback, and operations balances can be transferred only to their designated treasury addresses under the published role model.
External creator fees and sponsorship contributions sent through the reward-vault funding function are reserved 100% for reward inventory and do not alter mining probabilities.
Credit first. Claim from the wallet.
Mining settlement credits balances rather than forcing immediate transfers. This pull-payment model isolates external receiver behavior from settlement and lets a player claim at a later time.
Native USDT0
Normal-prize and jackpot proceeds are credited to the winning wallet's claimable native USDT0 balance.
GTAMINER
Scheduled token emissions are reserved when the mine is accepted and credited after successful settlement.
Onchain points
Settled ticket units earn non-transferable protocol points. The reward-redemption threshold is fixed at deployment and publicly readable.
Private reward code
An eligible wallet requests redemption, signs a verification message, and receives one atomically assigned inventory code.
Reward-code delivery
- The wallet reaches the published points threshold or qualifies through an announced funded promotion.
- The wallet submits the required onchain redemption request when applicable.
- The claim service verifies the wallet signature, chain, event, and eligibility.
- An atomic inventory ledger assigns one available code to that wallet.
- The code is returned only to the verified wallet session and can be revealed again by the same wallet.
Full codes must never be bundled in frontend assets, contract storage, public feeds, analytics logs, or draw APIs. A social-media account is not required for redemption.
A fixed supply with declining mining emissions.
GTAMINER is designed as a fixed-supply ERC-20 token with EIP-2612 permit support. The token contract mints the full supply once at deployment. It has no owner mint function and no transfer tax.
| Allocation | Share | Tokens | Locking intent |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mining rewards | 40% | 400,000,000 | 12.5% initial unlock; remainder linear over 48 months |
| Liquidity | 20% | 200,000,000 | Initial and protocol-owned liquidity under disclosed custody |
| Ecosystem | 15% | 150,000,000 | 10% initial unlock; remainder linear over 36 months |
| Jackpot reserve | 10% | 100,000,000 | Seasonal token rewards and disclosed reserve coverage |
| Team | 10% | 100,000,000 | 6-month cliff; then linear over 24 months |
| Operations | 5% | 50,000,000 | Infrastructure, audits, integrations, and legal operations |
Mining emission seasons
| Settled ticket range | Reward per ticket | Season emission |
|---|---|---|
| 0 - 2,000,000 | 50 GTAMINER | 100,000,000 |
| 2,000,000 - 6,000,000 | 25 GTAMINER | 100,000,000 |
| 6,000,000 - 14,000,000 | 12.5 GTAMINER | 100,000,000 |
| 14,000,000 - 30,000,000 | 6.25 GTAMINER | 100,000,000 |
Transactions that cross a season boundary are priced across the relevant season ranges. After 30 million settled ticket units, scheduled token emissions stop. USDT0 prizes and points can continue subject to funded pools and the deployed protocol configuration.
Canonical market infrastructure and public execution.
Stable V3 launch
The initial GTAMINER/USDT0 market is designed to be created once through Stable's canonical Uniswap V3 infrastructure. The launcher refuses to initialize a second pool at the selected fee tier, mints one initial liquidity position, clears approvals, refunds unused launch inventory, and sends the LP NFT directly to a disclosed recipient.
The launch transaction should publicly identify the fee tier, initial price, tick range, minimum token amounts, deadline, liquidity controller, and LP NFT recipient. The recipient should be a time-controlled contract or multisig with a published liquidity policy.
Buyback policy
Buybacks should be executed in transparent batches rather than immediately after every mine. For each execution, GTAMINER intends to publish the source transaction, USDT0 input, execution route, average price, purchased amount, and destination.
A reference policy is 50% permanent supply reduction through a verified non-zero sink mechanism compatible with Stable, and 50% protocol-owned liquidity. Final execution rules remain subject to audit, market review, and applicable law.
Long-term alignment without touching player prize pools.
GTAMINER staking is a proposed post-launch module. No production staking contract is currently deployed, no deposits are accepted, and no APY is available or guaranteed. The final contract, funding schedule, caps, and withdrawal behavior must be published and independently audited before activation.
Proposed lock positions
A wallet would lock GTAMINER into a non-transferable position. Longer commitments receive a higher reward weight, while the underlying principal remains owned by the staking contract for the selected term.
| Lock term | Proposed weight | Position behavior |
|---|---|---|
| 30 days | 1.00x | Base-weight commitment |
| 90 days | 1.25x | Medium-term alignment |
| 180 days | 1.60x | Extended protocol commitment |
| 365 days | 2.20x | Maximum reference weight |
stakingPower = lockedAmount * termWeight walletReward = fundedRewards * walletPower / totalPower
Proposed staking properties
- Positions are non-transferable and represented by wallet-owned contract state, not a freely tradable receipt.
- A position may be increased or extended, but its unlock date cannot be shortened.
- Rewards can be claimed without withdrawing principal, subject to the funded reward balance.
- Principal becomes withdrawable after the recorded unlock time. The reference design includes no discretionary slashing.
- An emergency pause may stop new deposits and position changes but must preserve post-expiry withdrawals.
- Normal-prize, progressive-jackpot, reward-code, pending-round, and player-claim balances can never fund staking.
- Staking must not increase mining odds or alter jackpot randomness. Mining and staking remain economically separate modules.
- Displayed yield must be trailing realized yield calculated from distributed rewards, never a fixed promised return.
Permitted reward sources
Initial staking rewards must be pre-funded from a disclosed ecosystem allocation, sponsor contribution, or other separately identified source. Any future protocol-revenue contribution requires explicit public parameters, legal review, contract-level accounting separation, and independent audit.
Activation gate
- Publish the final staking specification, source code, addresses, and funding wallet.
- Complete independent smart-contract and economic-security audits.
- Run public testnet deposits, extensions, claims, expiry withdrawals, and emergency-state tests.
- Move administrative roles to disclosed multisigs and apply any required timelocks.
- Publish caps, reward epochs, realized-yield methodology, and jurisdiction restrictions.
- Enable the production interface only after the deployed contracts pass the public launch gate.
Solvency, randomness, and recoverable failure states.
Randomness boundary
Mainnet mining requires an independently verifiable randomness provider. A testnet mock provider or an operator-selected random value must never secure real-value outcomes. The randomness adapter is replaceable only through controlled governance conditions while the game is paused and no rounds are pending.
Solvency controls
- Pending stake, reserved prize liability, pool balances, and player claims are included in contract-level accounting.
- Every state transition verifies that the real native USDT0 balance covers the complete accounted balance.
- Normal-prize shortfall is reserved before accepting a mine.
- Token rewards are reserved against pre-funded inventory before a mine is accepted.
- Checks-effects-interactions and reentrancy protection are applied to value-moving functions.
Operational controls
- New mining and reward-redemption requests can be paused during an incident.
- Existing player claims and eligible stale-round refunds remain independently recoverable.
- Reward codes stay server-side and are assigned through an atomic inventory ledger.
- Contract source, deployment parameters, treasury wallets, and audited hashes must be published before mainnet activation.
Narrow authority and disclosed custody.
| Role | Authority | Expected custody |
|---|---|---|
| Game owner | Pause, controlled configuration, randomness-provider update under safety conditions | Multisig with published signers or policy |
| Randomness provider | Resolve pending round randomness only | Independent verifiable system |
| Liquidity controller | Approve and execute the one-time V3 launch | Dedicated multisig |
| LP NFT recipient | Custody of the initial concentrated-liquidity position | Timelock or policy-controlled multisig |
| Reward treasury | Purchase and fund wallet-claimable reward inventory | Separate disclosed treasury |
| Buyback treasury | Execute published GTAMINER buyback policy | Separate disclosed treasury |
| Operations treasury | Infrastructure, audits, support, compliance, and legal expenses | Budget-controlled treasury |
No administrative role can mint additional GTAMINER through the fixed-supply token contract. Normal-prize and jackpot funds are outside treasury-sweep authority.

Participation carries material risk.
- Smart-contract risk: defects, integration failures, or unexpected network behavior may cause loss, delay, or unavailability.
- Randomness risk: security depends on the production randomness system, fulfillment availability, and correct integration.
- Liquidity and token-price risk: GTAMINER may be volatile, illiquid, or lose all market value.
- Stablecoin risk: USDT0 introduces issuer, bridge, network, liquidity, and peg-related risks outside GTAMINER's control.
- Operational risk: reward inventory, infrastructure, RPC services, multisigs, and support processes may fail or be interrupted.
- Regulatory risk: paid chance-based gameplay, token rewards, promotions, and staking may be restricted or regulated differently by jurisdiction.
- Staking risk: proposed parameters may change, activation may be delayed or cancelled, and realized rewards may be zero.
