Settlement

Onchain settlement

Winning produces a backend-signed claim (an Ed25519 signature over the exact reward parameters). A Solana program verifies that signature against the authorized signer and only then releases the vault’s tokens to your wallet. The backend can prove a win; it can never move funds itself.

What's real today

The game logic, the real AI Guardian, scoring, and proofs are live now. The onchain entry payment and reward claim are currently simulatedwhile the Solana program is deployed and the $CIPHER mint goes live. At launch, those two steps become real transactions — nothing else about the game changes.

Trust

Proof & fairness

Every finished attempt leaves a record: a hash of the conversation and — on a win — the signed claim and settlement. The hidden rule and internal judging never leak to the client, so the puzzle stays fair for the next player, while the outcome stays verifiable.

  • The win condition never leaves the backend.
  • The AI cannot unlock or move funds — only a two-judge gate + signed claim can.
  • Reward release is enforced onchain by a program, not by trust in a server.
  • Each run is hashed, so results are auditable and replayable.
