🎰On-chain Games

Recent advancements in blockchain technology has the ability to transform online gambling by addressing one of the industry’s biggest challenges: trust. Bamboo on Base is supporting an ecosystem of on-chain games, powered by $BAMBOO, designed to offer transparency, control, and fairness in ways traditional casinos cannot.

Our blueprint for success is inspired by analysing pioneering crypto games like Satoshi Dice and Bustabit and blending those insights with modern blockchain architecture. With our first ecosystem game, Panda Plinko, we aim to demonstrate that on-chain gambling is not just possible—it’s a better way to play.

Key Features of On-Chain Gambling with Bamboo on Base

• Simple Web3 Registration: With just one click using a Web3 wallet, players are ready to start. There’s no need for usernames or passwords, providing seamless entry.

• Transparency and Provable Fairness: Every bet and transaction is recorded on-chain, allowing players to view all bets, payouts, and game statistics in real time. Players can verify the fairness of every outcome, a significant step up from third-party auditors like GLI.

• Enhanced User Control: Players maintain full control over their funds, held securely in their wallet rather than with the casino. The $BAMBOO balance in the player’s wallet is never accessible to the casino, ensuring true financial autonomy.

• Decentralised Security: On-chain records are decentralised and immutable, making them resistant to tampering or hacking—an improvement over centralised systems vulnerable to breaches.

How It Works: A Walkthrough of On-Chain Gameplay

1. Wallet Connection: Players connect their crypto wallet (e.g., MetaMask) as both an identifier and funds repository. Their wallet address becomes their only visible identity in the game, ensuring privacy.

2. Smart Wallet Creation: Upon connecting, a dedicated smart wallet is generated for gameplay. Players transfer their chosen amount of $BAMBOO to this wallet, and only the player controls its access. A minor ETH transaction fee approves this transfer, but the casino has no control over these funds.

3. Gameplay: Every time a bet is placed in Panda Plinko, the wagered amount is securely moved from the player's smart wallet to the Casino Bankroll wallet. If the player wins, funds are automatically transferred back to their smart wallet. Each transaction is verified on the blockchain, ensuring transparency at every step.
