Burning Raffles
A burning raffle is a way to help burn coins and maybe get a little something back for it β not a bet. Here's the key idea: every contribution you make burns tokens. That's the whole point. In return, each contribution gives you a chance to win a share of the prize pot, and whatever is left in the pot when the raffle ends is burned too. Win or not, your contribution always did its job β it took coins out of supply.
Because it's built entirely on burning, a raffle is a contribution mechanism, never gambling. You're not staking money hoping to grow it; you're helping shrink the supply, with a friendly chance of a reward for taking part.
Taking part
When a coin has an active raffle running, you'll see a Join Raffle option on it. From there:
Choose how many contributions you'd like to make β each one is like a ticket.
The app shows you the price per contribution, your total cost, and your win chance, written plainly as "1 in N".
Confirm, and your tokens are burned as your contributions go in.
More contributions improve your chances β but they never guarantee a win. A better "1 in N" is still just a chance, so only contribute what you're happy to burn regardless of the outcome.
Seeing your results
Results settle a couple of moments after you join. When they're ready, a full-screen animation plays and reveals the outcome of each of your contributions one by one, followed by a summary of how you did.
Finding raffles and winners
A dedicated raffles page lists every active raffle in one place, showing the prize, the price per contribution, your chance, and the time left to join.
Each coin also keeps a winners list, so you can see who's won recently. Your own wins are tagged, making them easy to spot.
For example. That gaming guild runs a raffle on its $GUILD token to celebrate a new season. Members join with a few contributions each β every one of those burns $GUILD β and a handful walk away with a share of the pot. Whatever's left over is burned when the raffle wraps up, so the community ends the event with a little less $GUILD in supply and a bit of shared fun along the way.
