The Vault

Last updated: June 30, 2025

The Vault is the central economic logistics of Monty’s Pit. It is a non-custodial smart contract that holds, redistributes, and balances all $PIT within the game economy.

It is not just a wallet — it’s the heartbeat of the ecosystem.


Overview

  • Type: Immutable smart contract (non-custodial)

  • Network: Ethereum

  • Purpose: Hold and redistribute $PIT through gameplay

  • Design: Deterministic, rule-based — no manual control


How the Vault Works

$PIT Inflows (What fills the Vault)

  1. Casino Losses Every $PIT lost in casino games is sent to the Vault.

  2. Cosmetic Purchases All NFT skins, emotes, and visual FX are bought in $PIT, which goes directly into the Vault.

  3. Tournament Entry Fees Special events may require entry fees — these are deposited into the Vault.


$PIT Outflows (What drains the Vault)

  1. Casino Winnings All $PIT winnings are paid out from the Vault.

  2. $DIG → $PIT Conversions When players convert $DIG into $PIT, the Vault supplies the payout (and the $DIG is burned).

  3. Event and Tournament Rewards Scheduled competitions with $PIT prizes withdraw directly from the Vault.

  4. Cosmetic Airdrops (if priced) If airdropped cosmetics are considered to hold $PIT value, they must be recorded as Vault outflows.


What Doesn't Affect the Vault

  • $PIT Staking Staking happens outside the Vault in player wallets or staking contracts.

  • NFT Trading Between Players Peer-to-peer trades do not touch the Vault unless explicitly routed through a Vault-integrated module.


Security Principles

  • No admin keys

  • No pausing or withdrawal functions

  • Vault balance is fully transparent and on-chain

  • All logic is enforced by smart contract rules — not backend logic


Balancing Philosophy

The Vault is not just a storage system — it enforces a closed-loop economy.

What you lose today becomes someone else’s second chance tomorrow.

This creates:

  • A measurable, finite ecosystem

  • Natural balance between risk and redemption

  • Protection against value leakage and inflation


Technical Behavior

  • Vault is initialized with fixed token supply (from initial allocation)

  • All economic flows in-game are routed through Vault logic

  • $DIG conversions pull from the Vault, ensuring every reward is real

  • No minting — only redistribution


Summary

The Vault ensures that every $PIT spent, lost, or earned is part of a self-contained system.

There are no leaks. There are no shortcuts. There is only the loop.
