How Sell the Top works

A fake memecoin pumps. You get one sell. Sell close to the top and you win $IDIOT. Hold too long and you get rugged, like always.

What it costs

You pick your entry: 10,000, 100,000 or 1,000,000 $IDIOT, plus 0.0005 SOL, approved in your wallet in one go. Payouts are multiples of whatever you put in. Your whole entry goes into the prize pool that pays the winners, and the tiny SOL fee keeps the servers running. If your round pays nothing, 30% of your entry is burned forever and the other 70% stays in the pool. If it pays, nothing is burned: your payout comes out of the pool. An entry only opens while the prize pool holds at least 5 times it, so one big win can never empty the pool; if the pool is low, the bigger entries wait until it refills. Practice is free and always will be.

How you score

Each round is 3 charts, and each chart runs about a minute (they vary a little), so a round takes 3 to 4 minutes. On each one, hit SELL (or the space bar) when you think it's the top. Your score is the price you sold at as a percentage of the highest price that chart hit: sell at the exact top and you score 100%. Don't sell at all and you ride it to the bottom. Your round score is the average of your charts.

Like a real order, your sell fills at the close of the candle you hit SELL in, not the exact instant you clicked. Click early or late in a candle, you get the same price, so reading the chart matters more than reflexes or your internet connection. Practice and paid charts play at the same pace.

So a 10,000 $IDIOT entry pays up to 20,000, and a 1,000,000 entry pays up to 2,000,000. Winnings land in your wallet automatically, usually within a minute. Play as many rounds as you want.

Is it fair?

Every chart is decided before you play, from a random seed. Before each chart you see its fingerprint; after the round you get the seed, and your browser checks that the chart you played is exactly the one that was promised. Anyone can rebuild any chart from its seed with the game's chart code. No player sees any part of a chart before its time, and nothing you do changes it. It's your timing against the chart, that's it.

If something goes wrong

Closed the page mid-round? Reopen it in the same browser and hit Resume. You have 30 minutes from paying to finish; after that, any chart you didn't play counts as held to the end. If a payout hiccups, it retries on its own. If something breaks on our end, we'll make it right.
