How it works
Tokens launch on Solana or Robinhood Chain. Trading those launches generates platform fees, a configurable share of which funds that chain's jackpot. Each chain draws its own winner on the published schedule.
- 1
A token launches
Anyone can launch a token through Lottery, on Solana or on Robinhood Chain. The chain it launches on is fixed from that moment: it feeds that chain's pot and no other.
- 2
Trading generates a platform fee
Lottery charges a platform fee on trades of tokens launched here. A configurable share of that fee funds the chain's jackpot; the rest is split between the treasury, the token creator and the ecosystem pool.
- 3
The jackpot share is credited to today's round
An indexer reads confirmed transactions and writes one ledger row per fee, split into its four shares. The pot you see is the sum of those rows — not a projection, and not a figure typed in by anyone.

Entries are earned, then frozen
Each round publishes its eligibility rule before it opens. On a trading round, trading is the act of entering: when entries close, every wallet that met the minimum is entered automatically — nothing to click, nothing to sign. The full entry set is then hashed into a Merkle root and that root is published, before any randomness is requested.
- 5
Randomness arrives from outside
The seed comes from a verifiable randomness provider, requested after the commitment exists. Nobody at Lottery can see it first, and nobody can choose a winner: the selection is a pure function of the committed entries and that seed.
- 6
One winner per chain, every round
The draw runs independently on each chain, pays one winner, and publishes everything needed to re-run it: the entry set, the root, the seed and the algorithm version.

65% vault · holders vote hourly
The 65% vault is ops/treasury surplus from Lottery platform fees, not the live jackpot pot. Each chain has its own vault. Holders vote hourly; tallies are public. Spend execution is not live until Token Ops wires it.

What you can check yourself
- Every pot. Each round's page lists the fee events behind its total, each naming a transaction you can open in a block explorer.
- Every draw. The proof page publishes the entry set, the committed root and the seed. Re-running the selection must produce the same winner on any machine.
- The ordering. The root is published before the seed is requested, so an entry set cannot be edited to fit a result.
- The algorithm. The selection is documented and versioned, so you can write your own verifier rather than trusting ours.
What this does not claim
- Holding or buying any token does not by itself create a legal entitlement to a prize. Entry is governed by the published rules for that round.
- Entry rules limit how much one wallet can accumulate. They do not prove one entry per person: anyone able to fund multiple wallets can hold multiple entries.
- Eligibility rules are published per chain and per round, and can change between rounds. Meeting a rule is the only way to hold an entry.
- Jackpots depend on platform fee activity and protocol rules. Nothing here is guaranteed, and tokens can lose all value.
- Lottery is not an investment product, and nothing on this site is financial advice.
Network gas fees, liquidity provider fees, and fees charged by any other protocol or venue.
