Winner Selection

The winners of the Hyperpool prizepool draws are found through an RNF (Random Number Function) selection mechanism provided by Chainlink VRF which is verifiable on the blockchain as truly random. Read more about Chainlink VRF here.

Each ticket has a number associated with it. Think of it like a ticket number in a raffle. Winner selection example:

• First, the contract sums the total number of eligible tickets. For example; 12,000.

• The contract then sends a request to Chainlink VRF to choose a random number between 1 and 12,000.

• Once the winning number is received the contract then finds the wallet that owns the winning ticket number.

• The contract then sends the total ETH accumulated in that prizepool to the winning wallet.

All prizes are automatically delivered by the contract to the winner's wallet, in the form of ETH. Any gas fees associated with the transfer of the winning funds are covered by Hyperpool and are not deducted from the prizepool value.

Winners do not have to claim their winnings in any fashion. It is all automatic.
