Frequently Asked Questions
What is Block Lottos?
Block Lottos is a blockchain-powered lottery platform with multiple lottery games. You pick 6 numbers, buy a ticket for your chosen game, and if your numbers match the weekly draw, you win the jackpot. It's transparent, fair, and fully on-chain.
How do I play?
1. Connect your Web3 wallet.
2. Go to the Games page and choose a lottery game.
3. Pick 6 numbers between 1 and 49 (or use Quick Pick).
4. Click "Buy Ticket" and confirm your entry.
5. Wait for that game's weekly draw.
How much does a ticket cost?
Ticket prices depend on the lottery game you choose. You can buy as many tickets as you want for each draw.
What is the minimum winner payout?
A valid winning ticket receives at least 100 POL in Polygon Future Ledger or 100 USDC in Base Future Ledger. If the current jackpot for that game is higher, the higher amount applies. This minimum applies only to a ticket verified as a winner.
How are the winning numbers generated?
Winning numbers are generated using Chainlink VRF, a verifiable random function. In simple terms, Chainlink provides randomness that can be independently checked on-chain, so players can see the draw was not picked or changed by a person. Technically, it gives each draw a cryptographic proof that the random result was produced fairly. Every ticket, winning number, and prize payout is recorded on-chain and auditable by anyone.
What happens if nobody matches all 6 numbers?
The entire jackpot rolls over to the next week. It keeps growing indefinitely until someone matches all 6 numbers. There's no expiry, the jackpot will keep building week after week until it's won. The longer it rolls, the bigger the prize gets.
How do I get my prize?
If your numbers match the winning draw, the payout goes to the winning wallet associated with the ticket. Polygon Future Ledger pays at least 100 POL and Base Future Ledger pays at least 100 USDC for a valid winning ticket. If the current jackpot is higher, the higher amount applies.
What wallet do I need?
You need a Web3 wallet that supports the game you want to play. Wallet options include MetaMask and WalletConnect-compatible apps. Make sure your wallet has enough funds for tickets and gas fees.
What blockchain networks does this run on?
Block Lottos supports multiple lottery games across different blockchain networks. Each game page shows which network it uses, and your wallet will guide you through the correct connection flow.
Where does the ticket money go?
80% of every ticket goes directly into the jackpot pool.
20% goes to operations (hosting, development, maintenance).
This split is hardcoded into the smart contract and cannot be changed.
Is Block Lottos fair?
Yes. The lottery logic runs through transparent smart contracts. Every draw and ticket is recorded on-chain and can be independently verified by anyone. Prize payments can also be verified from the winning wallet’s public transaction history.
Can bots or agents play?
Yes. Block Lottos is designed to be open and permissionless where supported. Humans, bots, and agents can interact with the lottery systems on-chain, and public APIs are available for read access on the API page.
