Real-life examples
Case A — big pool (400 SOL)
Everyone gets full multipliers, nobody hits the cap → small bets ×10, whales ×2–×3.
Case B — small pool (70 SOL)
Winners: $8 → $15 → $80 → $450 → $3000
Theoretical: $80 → $150 → $480 → $1800 → $6000
But pool is only 70 SOL → 30 % cap = max 21 SOL per person
→ Whale ($3000) gets capped at 21 SOL
→ Remaining 49 SOL are shared between the other 4 at their full ×10 / ×6 / ×4
Everyone wins, pool stays intact.
Case C — tiny pool (15 SOL)
Team tops up to 50 SOL → same 30 % cap applies → small bets still get ×8–×10, big bets get ×1–×2.
Nobody walks away with zero.
The bigger the weekly volume → the higher the multipliers.
Small bets are always protected and get the highest possible ×10 when the pool allows it.
Whales still profit, but can never eat the entire prize pool.
Zero debt, zero broken promises, fully automatic and transparent.
