How to play
One board a day. Every try deals its own pieces. Best of 3 tries counts.
Try three moves
A real board with three short goals. Drag the piece, tap a spot, or use the arrow keys and Enter.
Keyboard: arrow keys move, Enter places.
Two ways to play
A map of levels to practice on. No tickets, no prizes. Play as much as you like.
1 ticket = 1 USDC = 1 attempt. Up to 3 attempts per wallet per UTC day, and your best one counts. The top 10 each day and each month win USDC.
The rules
8×8 board
64 cells. You place pieces one at a time.
3 pieces at a time
Pick a piece, then tap where it goes. Pieces don't rotate. In Ranked the server deals the pieces, so nobody sees the next ones early.
Fill a line
A full row or column clears. Clear more than one at once for a combo. Blocks don't fall after a clear.
Game over
The run ends when none of your pieces fit anywhere.
Checked in public
Before each UTC day starts, a fingerprint of that day's seed (a sha256 commitment) is published. After the day ends, the seed and every move of every run are published, so anyone can re-check every score.
Where the money goes
Each 1 USDC ticket is split on-chain, inside the purchase transaction:
Prize vault
Pays the daily and monthly top 10.
Team
Runs and builds BlockBite.
Referrer
The wallet whose link you came from. No referrer? This 5% goes to the team, so the team gets 30%.
Prizes
Every ticket puts 0.70 USDC into the prize vault. That money pays two contests: one for each UTC day and one for each month. Each pays its top 10.
Daily pot
40% of what the vault takes in during a UTC day, paid to that day's top 10.
Monthly pot
The other 60%, collected over the whole month and paid to the month's top 10.
How a pot is shared
Both pots use the same curve. First place takes a quarter, and every rank down to 10th gets paid.
#125%21.00 USDC
300 tickets a day put 210.00 USDC in the vault each day. 84.00 USDC of it goes to that day's top 10. Keep that up for 30 days and the monthly pot reaches 3,780.00 USDC.
Each block is 1% of the pot. These amounts are examples. The real pots depend on how many tickets sell.
Your monthly score
Your monthly score is your 10 best daily scores added together. Play more than 10 days and your weaker days drop out. Play fewer and every day you played counts.

Questions
Is this gambling?
Your score comes from where you place pieces, and pieces are dealt fairly from a seed committed before the day starts and published after. Some countries still have special rules for paid contests, so check yours. 18+ only.
What if I disconnect mid-run?
The ticket was spent when the attempt started. The server saves every move as you play, and when the UTC day ends the score you reached stands.
Can I reuse a ticket?
No. One ticket is one attempt.
How do referral links work?
Your link is /r/ followed by your wallet address. When someone opens it and then buys tickets in that browser, 5% of their ticket money goes to your wallet in the same transaction.
When can I buy tickets?
Once the prize program is live on Solana mainnet. Until then the ticket page says "Opening soon".
