Win Rate

In XMega, the win rate for each prize level is expressed in terms of 1 in 1,000,000,000 (one in a billion) rather than a traditional percentage. This approach provides fine-grained control over the probability of winning each prize, which is particularly useful for jackpot-style games with a wide range of potential outcomes. Here’s how it works:

Understanding the Win Rate

• 1 in 1,000,000,000 is the base unit for setting win rates.

• For example, if you want to set a win rate of 1%, that would translate to 10,000,000 in 1,000,000,000 (since 1% of a billion is 10 million).

• This system allows game creators to define win probabilities as specific as 1 in a billion for ultra-rare prizes, making it ideal for creating exciting jackpot odds.

Examples of Win Rate Setup

When creating a prize structure for a jackpot game, the creator can assign a specific win rate for each prize, using the 1 in 1,000,000,000 format:

1. Jackpot Prize

   • Win Rate: 1 in 1,000,000,000 (extremely rare, equivalent to a 0.0000001% chance).

2. First Additional Prize

   • Win Rate: 10,000,000 in 1,000,000,000 (less rare, roughly a 1% chance).

3. Second Additional Prize

   • Win Rate: 50,000,000 in 1,000,000,000 (equivalent to a 5% chance).

Benefits of the 1 in 1,000,000,000 System

• Precision: Allows game creators to set precise probabilities for each prize, tailoring the odds to create the right balance of risk and reward.

• Control Over Rarity: With a large range (from 1 to 1 billion), creators can introduce extremely rare prizes (like the jackpot) alongside more common rewards, enhancing the player experience.

• Consistency: Using a single, consistent scale for all prizes keeps the game logic straightforward and transparent, especially in the context of blockchain smart contracts.

Important Note

Since this win rate is set within a smart contract on the blockchain, once the game is created, these probabilities are locked and cannot be modified. This immutability ensures fairness and trust for all players, who can be assured that the odds of winning each prize are securely established and verifiable.
