Profit Potential

Understanding the economics of ORE Pump helps set realistic expectations.

Sources of Value

1. Winning Bets

When you bet on the winning coin:

  • You receive a share of the total pot
  • Share is proportional to your bet vs others on that coin
  • Minus platform fee (see Fee Structure)

2. Staking Rewards

Regardless of betting outcomes:

  • You accumulate stake through participation
  • Stake earns APY in refined ORE
  • ORE can be sold or held

3. ORE Token Value

If ORE token value increases:

  • Your refined ORE is worth more
  • Your stake generates more real-world value

Example Scenarios

Scenario A: Lucky Winner

Bet: 0.5 SOL on winning coin
Total pot: 50 SOL
Your share of winning coin: 25%
Gross winnings: ~12.5 SOL
Net after fees: ~11.5 SOL
Profit: 11 SOL

Scenario B: Steady Player

Session: 20 rounds
Avg bet: 0.1 SOL per round
Wins: 2 rounds (expected ~0.8)
Gross winnings: varies
Stake earned: accumulates
APY earnings: ongoing
Net result: likely small profit or loss, plus stake

Scenario C: Unlucky Streak

Session: 10 rounds
Bets: 1 SOL total
Wins: 0
Loss: -1 SOL
But: Earned stake, earning APY
Long-term: Stake value may offset some losses

Average Expectations

The Math

  • 25 coins per round
  • 4% chance per coin
  • Theoretical break-even requires winning 1/25 rounds

In Practice

  • Variance is high
  • Short-term results fluctuate wildly
  • Long-term converges to expected value

Risk Management

Set a Budget

Decide before playing:

  • Maximum you'll bet in a session
  • Stop-loss point

Diversify Bets

Instead of all on one coin:

  • Spread across multiple coins
  • Reduce variance (but also reduces max upside)

Value Stake

Remember:

  • Even losing bets build stake
  • Stake has real value
  • Consider it part of your return
