# Introduction

## Overview

PIXY is an ambitious, community-driven project built on the Base Network, designed to enhance and expand the Farcaster ecosystem through functional products and on-chain utilities.

The core focus of PIXY is to build a strong brand and an active community while delivering scalable products that reward real user participation and create long-term value for the ecosystem.

***

## Vision

PIXY envisions an ecosystem where meaningful social activity is recognized, rewarded, and transformed into real utility.

By aligning users, products, and incentives, PIXY aims to become a foundational engagement layer within the Farcaster ecosystem on Base.

***

## Mission

PIXY’s mission is to:

* **Build a strong and cohesive community**
* **Reward genuine activity and engagement**
* **Deliver functional, long-term products for the Farcaster ecosystem**
* **Create sustainable value through on-chain utilities**

***

## Why PIXY?

Decentralized social platforms grow through user participation, but not all activity represents real value.

PIXY was created to solve this problem by introducing systems that can:

* **Identify active and high-quality users**
* **Recognize and reward meaningful engagement**
* **Support scalable products built around community activity**

\
Through its scoring system and utility-driven products, PIXY turns engagement into measurable value.

***

## Brand Philosophy

PIXY is inspired by the pixel, the smallest building block of the digital world.\
Each user represents a single pixel.

Individually simple, but collectively forming a powerful and valuable ecosystem.

This philosophy defines both PIXY’s visual identity and its product design.

***

## Why Base Network?

PIXY is built on the Base Network to ensure scalability, reliability, and long-term sustainability.

Base offers:

* **Strong scalability and low transaction costs**
* **A large and growing user base**
* **High adoption and ecosystem trust**

These qualities make Base an ideal foundation for building user-facing, on-chain products.

***

## What’s Next?

PIXY consists of multiple interconnected components, including:

* **A custom engagement-based scoring system**
* **Utility-driven products such as Tasky, Basepot, and CoinFlip**
* **An NFT collection and a native utility token**

Each of these components will be explained in detail in the following sections of the documentation.


# Ecosystem Overview

## Overview

The PIXY ecosystem is designed as a connected system where user activity, on-chain products, and incentives work together.

At its core, PIXY transforms social engagement on Farcaster into measurable value and real utility across multiple products built on the Base Network.

***

## Core Components of the PIXY Ecosystem

The PIXY ecosystem consists of five main components:

1. **Users**
2. **PIXY Scoring System**
3. **Utility Products**
4. **NFT Collection**
5. **$PIXY Token**

Each component plays a distinct role while remaining interoperable.

## User Participation

Users interact with the PIXY ecosystem through:

* Farcaster activity
* PIXY products such as Tasky, Basepot, and CoinFlip

This activity forms the foundation of the PIXY ecosystem.

***

## PIXY Scoring System&#x20;

The PIXY Scoring System operates as an engagement analysis and reward layer.

It evaluates user activity on Farcaster using signals such as:

* **Replies**
* **Likes**
* **Followers**

The resulting PIXY Score is used to:

* **Recognize highly active users**
* **Enable fair reward distribution**

## Role of NFTs in the Ecosystem

The PIXY NFT collection strengthens long-term alignment.

NFT holders receive:

* **Special platform benefits**
* **Enhanced earning opportunities**
* **Revenue sharing**
* **Staking-based incentives**
* **Eligibility for the $PIXY token airdrop**

NFTs represent commitment, not mandatory participation.

***

## Role of the $PIXY Token

The $PIXY token functions as the utility and incentive layer of the PIXY ecosystem.

It is designed to:

* **Support platform utilities**
* **Reward active contributors**
* **Align users, products, and long-term growth**

***

## On-Chain Transparency

All PIXY products are built on the Base Network and follow on-chain principles:

## Basepot

### Overview

Basepot is a fully on-chain jackpot-style mini-game built on the Base Network, designed with transparency, fairness, and verifiable randomness at its core.

In each round, a variable number of participants (between 5 and 15) is defined directly by the smart contract. This dynamic structure ensures fairness, unpredictability, and resistance to manipulation.

<figure><img src="/files/LQDtKsWTG3p0Zqf9uRYq" alt="" width="256"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

#### &#xD;How it works

* Each round initializes with a participant range of **5–15 users**, determined by the smart contract.
* Users enter the round by spending **USDC on Base**.
* A participant’s **probability of winning increases proportionally to the amount spended**.
* Once the participant queue is filled, the round automatically closes.
* A **single winner** is selected.
* The **entire jackpot is transferred directly to the winner’s wallet**.

#### &#xD;&#xD;Verifiable Randomness & Security

* Winner selection is powered by **Chainlink VRF**, ensuring provably fair and tamper-proof randomness.
* All game logic and fund flows are enforced by **immutable smart contracts**.
* Every round is **fully on-chain, transparent, and independently verifiable** by anyone.

Basepot leverages trusted infrastructure to provide a secure and trust-minimized gaming experience on the Base Network.

Together, these products form the utility layer of the PIXY ecosystem.


# Tasky

**Tasky** is a Social Engagement Platform that you can use to boost your projects or accounts! Let's see how it works:

## 🔵 For Users:

Open PIXY App: <https://farcaster.xyz/miniapps/qYSrj9DpmRp3/pixy>

In the Campaigns section, you can view active campaigns.

<figure><img src="/files/c414fk1myHVGBm4iy7pj" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Click on the campaign to enter the campaign page.

<figure><img src="/files/2eI7ngP7vNo3a6VDQICA" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

By completing all the tasks on the task board, you will successfully enter the campaign and after the campaign ends, you can claim your reward.

## 🔵 For Creators:

To create a campaign, open the miniapp and go to the "Campaigns" tab. Click on "+" icon:

<figure><img src="/files/Otv964IX2XvOYYK72y7f" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

A clear title and description improve your campaign’s visibility. Fill in the required details and set the campaign duration:

<figure><img src="/files/otdrCFne0cXIjF0jkdCi" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Here you can specify filters that only these users can perform tasks. Please note that creating filters can increase the restriction and fewer users can perform the task, thus slowing down the task completion speed:

<figure><img src="/files/ehAFrksvgx6tDOVLymQy" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Here, specify how many users you want to perform your tasks:

<figure><img src="/files/OOZqVQXaKtZnBj5Bc6D5" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Here you will see the payment details and then go to the next step and sign the contract to launch your campaign:

<figure><img src="/files/VefpAQ3c56pql474sa54" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

It is calculated based on the amount and tasks you selected in the previous step.


# Basepot Guide

Using Basepot is simple! Just like using any other app on the blockchain. Let’s see step by step how to login and place a bet:

## Step 1:&#x20;

[Open the App](https://farcaster.xyz/miniapps/qYSrj9DpmRp3/pixy) and enter the Basepot.

<figure><img src="/files/5hJKVHrUfaBY7TMPyGnh" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Here you can see all the round information.

<figure><img src="/files/PTVOolhgTdhfamgJdYOm" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* **Players**: Here you can see the size of the round and how many people have joined.
* **POT**: All USDC that has been collected and will go to the winner.
* **Your Chance**: After entering, you can see your chance here based on the amount you entered.
* **Your BET**: The amount you bet in this round.
* **EST. Chance**: Here you will see your instant chance based on the amount you want to deposit to enter the game.
* **Round (Top of the page)**: Here you can see the history of previous rounds and winners. If you want to see the full information, just click on any round you want.

To enter, you must first connect your wallet. Select your desired wallet and connect.

<figure><img src="/files/dLf6Ck71zaarPJhN0VpR" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Now you can enter the amount you want to place.

<figure><img src="/files/VVvIyY0cDN8RZWslA244" alt="" width="491"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

What's **Approve** and **Approve one-time** ?&#x20;

To withdraw USDC from your account and transfer it to our contract, we need to obtain an **approve** from you. This is a standard mechanism used for all token transfers. This approval does not give us permission to transfer funds on our own; it is only a prerequisite for the transfer process.

That’s why there are **two steps**:

1. Signing the first transaction to grant withdrawal approval.
2. Signing the second transaction to transfer the amount.

If you want to reduce the number of steps, you can use the **Approve one-time** option. This allows us to obtain a **general approval** from you (please note that this does **not** mean we can directly withdraw funds from your wallet). After that, you only need to sign one **transfer transaction**.

After signing, your information will be transferred to the smart contract and you must wait to be added to the round:

<figure><img src="/files/T2rbSfgzLuz0V1JpZRXY" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

⚠️ Note: Make sure you have **enough USDC** in your wallet to enter POT. You will also need a small amount of **ETH to pay the network fee**.&#x20;

⚠️ Note: Make sure both USDC and ETH are on the **Base Network**.

Otherwise you will receive the following error:

<figure><img src="/files/vE3ojoqV1nC0WiurjwpC" alt="" width="421"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

After the round is filled, the lottery is carried out completely automatically by the smart contract, and the POT amount is sent directly to the winner's wallet. (Platform Fee is 5%)


# Security & Validation

**Basepot is fully on-chain** and transparent.\
All core operations are executed through smart contracts on the blockchain. We publicly provide the contract address so anyone can independently verify transactions, balances, and contract interactions directly on-chain.

Nothing is hidden or handled off-chain — every transaction is traceable, auditable, and visible to everyone via the blockchain explorer. This ensures full transparency and trustless operation.

**We also leverage Chainlink for decentralized security and reliability.**\
Basepot uses Chainlink’s decentralized infrastructure (such as VRF and/or oracles) to ensure critical processes are verifiable, tamper-proof, and free from manipulation.

By relying on Chainlink’s independent node network, we remove any single point of control and guarantee that key outcomes are generated fairly and transparently on-chain.

### Contract Address:

{% embed url="<https://basescan.org/address/0x4a218d13b6dbffee41f49974d445292be85a2ca3>" %}

**Our contract is verified**. If you don't have programming knowledge, you can [copy its code](https://basescan.org/address/0x4a218d13b6dbffee41f49974d445292be85a2ca3#code) and give it to the AI to explain it to you.

# Commission System

## Referral Commission System

Basepot has a referral commission system that rewards you for inviting new players. When a user you invite plays the game, **10% of the platform fee** they pay is credited to you as a commission.

You can view your referral statistics, earned commissions, and related details directly in your **Basepot profile**. The more active your referrals are, the more you earn, creating a simple and fair incentive for growing the Basepot community.


# Leaderboard & Rewards

## Game Leaderboard & Rewards

Basepot features a competitive leaderboard where players are ranked based on their total game volume. Top players earn **PIXY** rewards according to their position on the leaderboard:

**#1**: 30,000 PIXY\
