Absolute Don'ts

  • NEVER use: lottery, gambling, betting, wagering
  • NEVER claim proof of concept results (haven't been paid yet)
  • NEVER call it "Hunt & Solo Pools" — solo pools are just a type of pool
  • NEVER use the $10.5T by 2025 cybercrime stat — use $16T by 2029 (Statista)
  • NEVER use emojis in the UI — custom SVG icons only

Payout Split

  • Sponsor/agent split is operator-set, free market — no hard floor
  • Operator fee is separate (their personal cut, typically 1-5%)
  • Don't say "capped at 5%" — it's a free market, say "typically 1-5%"
  • Within agent share: 95% equal + 5% finder bonus

Staking

  • Simple staking, no pool assignment — one stake, one number
  • Time-weighted multiplier (1mo=1x, 3mo=1.5x, 6mo=2x, 12mo=3x)
  • Operator's weighted stake determines pool fee tier
  • Minimum 25K weighted $PROWL to create any pool
  • All thresholds governance-adjustable
