The Farm
Buy GPUs on the Market, install them into rigs, and keep them powered with electricity. Every installed GPU adds hashrate to your farm. GPUs wear down the longer they run — repair them to keep them healthy, or discard a card once it's fully worn out.
Proof-of-Luck
ROOD Miner isn't connected to real Bitcoin mining — no actual proof-of-work is being solved here. Instead, every ~10 minutes the game picks a winning miner for the next block using the same math real mining odds are built on: a weighted random draw where your chance of winning is proportional to your share of total hashrate.
Think of it as a simulation — your farm's odds of finding a block are calculated exactly as if its power were a slice of a network the size of Bitcoin's. Only miners with hashrate greater than zero and electricity remaining are eligible for any given block. A bigger farm means better odds, but any single block is still down to luck — there are no guarantees.
P(you win a block) = your hashrate ÷ Σ(hashrate of all eligible miners)
Concretely: every eligible miner draws a random key k = U^(1/hashrate) (U is a fresh random number between 0 and 1), and whoever draws the highest key wins that block — a standard weighted-random-selection method that produces exactly the probability above without ever needing to know every miner's odds in advance. Example: with 500 MH/s out of 50,000 MH/s of eligible network hashrate, your odds of winning any single block are 500 ÷ 50,000 = 1%.
Rewards & Halvings
Winning a block adds its reward to your pending balance, claimable any time from the Base screen. The reward starts at 25,000 ROOD per block and is cut in half every 14,400 blocks (~100 days at one block every 10 minutes) — the same halving rhythm Bitcoin uses. Total supply is hard-capped at 1,000,000,000 ROOD; once every block is mined out, no more ROOD is ever created.
ROOD launched on Pump. 720,000,000 tokens were bought back and deposited into a StreamFlow vesting contract with a linear unlock, so the mining pool stays solvent and can keep paying out block rewards over time rather than all at once. View the vesting contract on StreamFlow →
Economy
ROOD Miner's economy doesn't depend on new players bringing in outside money — it runs as a closed loop between players who are already here:
1. Mining emits ROOD on a fixed schedule (halving every 14,400 blocks) — independent of how many people are playing.
2. Players spend ROOD on GPUs, electricity, rig upgrades, repairs, and pool creation fees to grow their farm and compete for better odds.
3. Every one of those purchases becomes shared revenue — it isn't burned or lost, it's tracked as project revenue.
4. That revenue funds staking payouts — anyone who stakes ROOD instead of spending it earns a share of that revenue, proportional to their stake.
In other words: ROOD that active players spend to compete flows straight to passive players who stake — the same pool of tokens just keeps changing hands based on how people choose to play, which is what makes the economy self-sustaining through in-game activity alone rather than needing constant new deposits.
Pools
Join or create a mining pool to combine hashrate with other miners. When the pool wins a block, the reward is split among members in proportion to the hashrate each one contributed — minus an optional creator fee set by the pool's founder.
Staking
Stake ROOD to earn passive rewards over time instead of actively mining. Staked ROOD is locked for a fixed period and can be claimed or unstaked once that period ends.
Wallet
Connect a Solana wallet to play — your wallet is your account, independent of any other login. All balances, GPUs, and rigs shown in the app live on ROOD Miner's own servers.
