4. Game Rules

4.1 Bet Timing

Players must place bets within the first 30 seconds of a one-minute candle. Bets placed after 30 seconds will roll over to the next candle.

4.2 Volatility and Multipliers

Volatility is calculated using the highest and lowest points over the last 10 candles (10 minutes). Multipliers are applied based on volatility:

• Low Volatility (0-0.5%): Multiplier of 1.5x
• Medium Volatility (0.5-1%): Multiplier of 1.7x
• High Volatility (Above 1%): Multiplier of 1.9x

4.3 Fees and Payouts

A 5% fee is deducted from every bet. The payout formula is: (Bet Amount * Multiplier) - Fee. If a player loses, the entire bet (minus the fee) is forfeited.

5. Affiliate Marketing System

Players can refer friends and earn rewards based on the following structure:

• First 5 referrals: 10% of system revenue from referred users
• 6-20 referrals: 15% of system revenue from referred users
• 21+ referrals: 25% of system revenue from referred users

Affiliate rewards are calculated and distributed weekly.
