Known Risks & Safeguards

Even with audits and testing, building on blockchain carries risks. Here are the main ones and how we plan to mitigate them:

• On‑chain contracts & logic: Undiscovered bugs may exist. Mitigation: Audited contracts, gradual rollouts, parameter guards/limits, event monitoring, and fast patches.

• Infrastructure (RPC, indexers, bots): Outages or latency may affect mint, market, or leaderboards. Mitigation: Multiple RPC providers with fallback, retries/queues, alerts, and status dashboards.

• Storage (IPFS): Slow/intermittent gateways may affect image/metadata loads. Mitigation: Redundant pinning and multiple gateways configured.

• Game integrity (Arcade): Bots or cheating may distort rankings. Mitigation: Server‑side validations, signatures/nonces, anomaly detection, manual reviews, and disqualification when needed.

• Marketplace liquidity & adoption: Early on, supply/demand may be thin. Mitigation: Listing campaigns, UX improvements, ecosystem visibility, and partner collaboration.

• Partner dependency: Changes on partner projects may impact campaigns or cross‑rewards. Mitigation: Phased agreements, clear objectives, shared metrics; replacements or adjustments if necessary.

• User experience (onboarding): Wallet or mobile friction may limit participation. Mitigation: Step‑by‑step guides, broad wallet compatibility, and continuous flow improvements.

• Prize sustainability: Unbalanced prize seasons may be hard to maintain. Mitigation: Gradual seasonal adjustments, transparent communication, and pilot tests before scaling.
