Hotsauce = Gaming Chips in Stakehouse Den - Boost your Hotsauce Productions!

Hey there, fellow Splinterlands enthusiast — glad you’re here. Let me walk you through something uniquely spicy in the Stakehouse Den universe: Hot Sauce.

In the Stakehouse Den ecosystem, Hot Sauce isn’t your average condiment — it’s a token you generate by staking both cards and Script. The catch (and charm) is that how much Hot Sauce you earn depends on how rare, leveled-up, or foily your card is. Higher rarity, higher level, or gold-foil cards grant you a better yield.

Here’s the formula:

Hot Sauce Generated = Merge Count × Generation Factor for the Card

Plus, for every card you stake, you must stake 2 Script (regardless of card strength) to unlock Hot Sauce rewards.

To break it down, the whitepaper provides tables of generation factors. For regular foil cards, a Level 1 Common gives you a factor of 1, whereas a Level 7 Legendary gives 5. For gold foil equivalents, figures are more aggressive — a Level 7 Legendary can yield factor 10. The maximum per-day caps are also laid out, e.g. 171 to 270 (regular foil) vs 180 to 300 (gold foil).

Why does this matter? Because Hot Sauce is a gatekeeper — you’ll need enough of it to participate in various features or benefit from certain incentives within Stakehouse Den. It rewards loyal stakers who optimize their card & Script combos.

In practice, the system encourages strategic upgrading and staking — it rewards those who don’t just hold, but actively engage and optimize. With Hot Sauce built this way, the more care you put into your deck, the hotter (and more profitable) your yield becomes.

Hope you found this spicy dive useful. If you want me to compare Hot Sauce with similar token-generation mechanics or help you strategize your staking, I’m your guy.
