The Reward Pools of Stakehouse Den - Let's Get to Know

At the heart of Stakehouse Den lies a finely tuned reward system, designed to fairly reward gameplay and inject excitement into every round. The Arcade Colony DAO has entrusted Stakehouse Den with a generous annual COLONY token allocation—80 million per year for five years—and these tokens are thoughtfully divided across the eight games in the platform’s lineup.

Here’s how it breaks down: each game receives 8 million COLONY tokens per year for standard play, and an additional 2 million per year is set aside for each game’s dedicated Jackpot pool.

Game Rewards: Play Well, Earn Fairly

Wins are what fuel rewards—but not all wins are created equal. Players rack up Rshares, a custom metric calculated using a blend of their game outcome and the amount of Hot Sauce they’ve staked, raised to the power of 1.2. The exact formula is:

Rshares = GameResultFactor × (HotSauce)^1.2

How many COLONY tokens you actually win depends on your share of Rshares relative to the total Rshares collected over a rolling two-week window, adjusted by a staking multiplier. Only wins contribute to this pool; losses leave Rshares (and rewards) untouched.

Jackpot Thrills: Cool Wins, Cooler Mechanics

The Jackpot pools light up when players bring at least 10,000 Hot Sauce into a single game session. And these aren’t run-of-the-mill rewards—bonuses await special feats like:

• Picking the right number in roulette

• Landing a royal flush in video poker

• Splitting aces and getting blackjack on both hands (while the dealer doesn’t)

• Hitting 777 in the slots

Every 10,000 Hot Sauce used in a round unlocks a slice—about 1% (TBD)—of the bonus pool. Precise percentages and mechanics may evolve as the platform gathers feedback and fine-tunes its balance.
