LYNC Fuel Lootbox

Loot boxes are virtual mystery boxes in games that contain randomized in-game items. Loot boxes play a crucial role in keeping players engaged by creating a sense of anticipation and excitement around what they might receive. This element of surprise encourages players to keep playing while driving significant revenue for game developers through in-game purchases. Additionally, loot boxes often offer rare or exclusive items that players can't get any other way, which increases their value and appeal.

On Chain Lootboxes

On-chain loot boxes are a new, blockchain-based version of these virtual mystery boxes. Unlike traditional loot boxes, where the process of distributing rewards is often hidden or controlled by game developers, on-chain loot boxes use blockchain technology and smart contracts to manage every step of the process in a decentralized and transparent way. The use of blockchain ensures that no one can tamper with or manipulate the outcome, providing players with a fair and trustworthy experience. This level of transparency sets on-chain loot boxes apart from their traditional counterparts by addressing concerns over fairness and encouraging player confidence.

Randomization and Its Importance

Randomization is the process that ensures each reward within a loot box is distributed in an unpredictable and unbiased way. It's a key component in creating and managing loot boxes because it directly impacts the player experience and the fairness of the system. The excitement of opening a loot box comes from the uncertainty of what it might contain, which is made possible by effective randomization. Randomization is crucial for creating and managing loot boxes because:

  • It Enhances Player Experience: The unpredictable nature of rewards makes opening loot boxes exciting and engaging for players.

  • It Ensures Fairness: Proper randomization means every player has an equal chance of winning any given reward, preventing favoritism or manipulation.

  • Builds Trust in the System: When players know that the randomization is genuinely fair and transparent, they are more likely to engage with the game and its loot boxes.

What is inside a Lootbox

Our on-chain loot boxes are filled with a mix of Non-fungible Tokens (NFTs - similar to ERC721 in EVM standards) and Fungible Tokens (FTs - similar to ERC20 in EVM standards), making every opening a unique and exciting experience. The contents of these boxes are chosen using a randomization method known as the Verifiable Random Function (VRF), which is an on-chain mechanism that ensures complete fairness and transparency in selecting rewards.

NFTs represent unique, one-of-a-kind digital rewards that players can receive when they open a loot box. Each NFT could be an exclusive in-game item like a rare skin, a powerful weapon, a special character, or any other unique asset that enhances the gameplay experience. Because NFTs are non-fungible, each one has its distinct value and properties, making them highly desirable to players who want something unique and collectible.

Fungible tokens (FTs) are digital currencies that can be used within the game’s ecosystem. Players can earn these tokens through loot boxes and use them for in-game purchases, to unlock new levels, or trade them with other players. Because FTs are compatible with external marketplaces, they offer players a way to exchange their in-game rewards for other digital assets or even real-world currency.

By including these different types of NFTs and tokens, our loot boxes provide a richer and more dynamic experience. Players know they have the chance to win not just any in-game item, but a verifiable, blockchain-based asset that could have substantial value outside the game as well. The use of the VRF (Verifiable Random Function) ensures that every time a loot box is opened, the reward selection process is genuinely random and unbiased, enhancing trust and fairness in the reward system.
