Mining

Mining is the core mechanic of ORB Supply. It’s a competitive game where participants deploy BNB on a grid of mystical orbs, competing for rewards based on verifiable randomness.

​

The Concept

Think of mining as a strategic betting game combined with provable fairness:

• You deploy BNB on orbs you think might win
• One orb is randomly selected using Chainlink VRF
• Winners split all BNB from losing orbs
• The process repeats every 60 seconds

​

The Orb Grid

The mining grid consists of 25 orbs arranged in a 5×5 pattern, numbered from #1 to #25. Each orb is:

• Numbered from #1 to #25
• Independent - deploying on one doesn’t affect others
• Equal - all orbs have the same chance of winning (4%)

​

Round Structure

Each round:

1. Deployment phase (60 seconds): Miners deploy BNB on orbs
2. Lock: Deployments locked, Chainlink VRF called
3. Selection: Winning orb determined (~5-10 seconds)
4. Distribution: Rewards distributed immediately

​

Reward Types

When your orb wins, you receive multiple types of rewards: BNB Rewards: All BNB from the 24 losing orbs is split proportionally among winners on the winning orb. Formula: (Your Deployment / Total on Winning Orb) × Total BNB from Losers ORB Bonuses: Up to 2500 ORB per round can be distributed. 50/50 chance of either +2500 ORB to one winner or split among all winners (up to 2500 ORB total per round).

​

Randomness & Fairness

ORB Supply uses Chainlink VRF (Verifiable Random Function) to ensure provable fairness:

• On-chain randomness: Cannot be manipulated
• Verifiable: Anyone can verify the randomness
• Transparent: All selections are public
• Decentralized: No single point of control

​

Deployment Strategies

While randomness makes outcomes unpredictable, you can still employ strategies: Single Orb: Deploy all BNB on one orb. Maximum reward if you win, but 4% chance, all-or-nothing. Diversified: Spread BNB across multiple orbs. Higher chance of winning, but smaller rewards per orb. Weighted: Deploy more on some orbs, less on others. Balanced risk/reward, but requires more planning.

How to Mine

​

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have:

• ✅ A BNB Chain wallet (MetaMask, Trust Wallet, WalletConnect, etc.)
• ✅ BNB for deployments (minimum 0.0001 BNB)
• ✅ BNB for gas fees (~0.001-0.002 BNB per transaction)
• ✅ Wallet connected to BNB Chain (BSC) network

​

Step 1: Connect Your Wallet

1. Open the ORB Supply dApp
   • Visit the official ORB Supply interface
2. Click “Connect Wallet”
   • Located in the top right corner
   • Select your wallet provider
3. Approve Connection
   • Confirm the connection in your wallet
   • The dApp will now show your wallet address

​

Step 2: Understand the Interface

Once connected, you’ll see the mining interface: Left Panel: Orb Grid

• ⚫ 5×5 Grid: 25 circular orbs numbered #1-#25
• BNB Amounts: Shows total BNB deployed per orb
• 👆 Click to Select: Click an orb to select it for deployment
• Visual Feedback: Selected orbs are highlighted

Right Panel: Controls

• Orbload Pool: Current jackpot amount
• Time Remaining: Countdown timer
• Total Deployed: All BNB across grid
• Your Deployment: Your BNB in this round

​

Step 3: Choose Deployment Mode

You have two deployment modes: Manual Mode: You control which orbs to deploy on. Best for learning the protocol and strategic gameplay. Auto Mode: The dApp automatically deploys for you. Best for passive participation and consistent strategy.

​

Step 4: Select Your Orbs

In Manual mode:

1. Click on orbs in the 5×5 grid
   • Selected orbs will be highlighted
   • You can select multiple orbs
   • Click again to deselect
2. View your selection
   • The interface shows “Blocks xN” where N is the number of selected orbs
   • Each orb can receive a portion of your deployment

​

Step 5: Set Deployment Amount

1. Enter BNB Amount
   • Type the amount directly in the input field
   • Or use quick buttons: +1, +0.1, +0.01
   • Or click to deploy your entire balance
2. Check Minimum
   • Minimum deployment: 0.0001 BNB
   • Keep some BNB for gas fees!
3. Review Summary
   • Blocks xN: Number of selected orbs
   • Total X BNB: Total amount to deploy
   • This amount will be split across selected orbs

​

Step 6: Deploy

1. Review your deployment
   • Selected orbs
   • Total BNB amount
   • Estimated gas cost
2. Click “Deploy”
   • A transaction will be created
   • Review it in your wallet
3. Confirm Transaction
   • Check the details in your wallet
   • Approve the transaction
   • Wait for confirmation (~3-5 seconds on BNB Chain)

​

Step 7: Wait for Round End

After deployment:

• Time Remaining shows the countdown
• Your Deployment confirms your BNB is deployed
• Total Deployed updates as others deploy

You can:

• ✅ Deploy more BNB (adds to existing deployment)
• ✅ View other miners’ deployments
• ❌ Cannot withdraw until round ends

​

Step 8: Check Results

When the round ends (~5-10 seconds after countdown):

1. Winning Orb Highlighted
   • The winning orb will be visually highlighted
   • Check if it’s one of your selected orbs
2. View Rewards
   • Check the Rewards section on the right
   • You’ll see:
     • BNB Rewards: From losing orbs (if you won)
     • Unrefined ORB: If you won the +2500 ORB bonus
     • Refined ORB: From holding unclaimed ORB
3. Orbload Check
   • If the Orbload was hit (1/625 chance), you’ll see a special notification
   • Your share will be in your rewards

​

Step 9: Claim Rewards

When you have rewards:

1. Review Your Rewards
   • BNB rewards (can claim separately)
   • Unrefined ORB
   • Refined ORB
2. Choose Claim Option
   • “Claim”: Claim all rewards (BNB + ORB)
   • “Claim only SOL”: Claim only BNB (keep ORB unclaimed for refining)
3. Confirm Transaction
   • Approve the claim transaction
   • Rewards are sent to your wallet

​

Reward Distribution

When the winning orb is determined:

1. 1% of all BNB deployments collected as contribution fee (goes to treasury)
2. All BNB from losing orbs is collected
3. BNB distributed proportionally to winners: (Your Deployment / Total on Winning Orb) × Total BNB from Losers
4. ORB bonuses distributed (50/50 chance: +2500 ORB to one winner or split among all, up to 2500 ORB per round)
5. Orbload check (1/625 chance)
6. Protocol fees: 10% BNB → revenue, 10% ORB → refining pool

​

Winning Mechanics

​

Probability Distribution

Each orb has equal probability: 4.00% chance (1 in 25). All 25 orbs have the same chance of winning.
