$1M TVL is nothing for a DeFi protocol Yet a $1M jackpot is larger than most lotteries worldwide The question is not "if" but "when" :)

Really cool mechanism with the LP on /megapot 🔥 A few questions though.. -Do non-LP winners automatically receive funds or do they have to log in and claim within a certain timeframe? And does the Warpcast frame notify if you win? -How certain are we on true randomness? (Every weighted RNG I've ever used has chosen the top percentile 100% of the time, even when odds say otherwise) Feature request: setting up automatic ticket buys 😄

thank you! 1. non-LP winners need to claim the jackpot. there is no expiry date since those funds are set aside in the contract for the claimer. the frame (now mini app!) doesn't notify you, but we're working on adding push notifs soon 2. pretty confident! we use entropy - https://www.pyth.network/entropy which takes in a random number from us, and from them to generate a massive number. it's a `bytes32`, which returns anything from 0 to 115792089237316195423570985008687907853269984665640564039457584007913129639935. we run a modulo operation on the massive number above to determine a winner. technically, there always exist some modulo bias, but it's negligible given how large this number is: https://research.kudelskisecurity.com/2020/07/28/the-definitive-guide-to-modulo-bias-and-how-to-avoid-it/

auto-ticket buys is something we'd love to enable. we're focusing on allowing anyone to build it and focusing on other improvements check out this internal deployment that's going live soon: https://deploy-preview-36--gregarious-paprenjak-c1761d.netlify.app/contracts/megapot their site is https://btb.finance/contracts/megapot

Very cool! So this is a 3rd party developing? So if it's a smart contract buying on your behalf I hope it also claims and sends to your address automatically, if you know? If not still much more convenient but a full passive mode would be neat 😎

yes, this is an independent third party! what's awesome about crypto is others can build on you, without permission. same team that launched on us a day after: https://warpcast.com/pl/0x26df6e0a i haven't dug specifically into how their contract works. but ultimately, it's community built so carries some risk. for anything that goes on megapot . io, it needs extreme security and audits and a bunch of UX work, so adding this would take a while. we appreciate the community building what users want! we had a similar community-built tool called megapool.party back in the day that spun up a pool wallet per user to buy tickets for users, so i know it's doable!
