The Wheel & Seasons

Legacy tokens aren't dead — spin the Wheel to convert old-season $PONZI into current-season cards and tokens.

Season System

Ponzimon operates in 30-day seasons. Each season introduces a fresh $PONZI token. When a season ends:

1.Farming rewards switch to the new season's token
2.Old tokens become "legacy tokens" with Wheel utility

The Wheel

The Wheel is a 20-position spinning game designed as a token sink for legacy-season tokens. It gives old token holders continued utility and creates a bridge between seasons.

Spin Cost

250 Legacy $PONZI per Spin
Flat rate. No escalation. Uses previous-season token.

Card Rewards

Cards from the Wheel use the reward rarity table, which is slightly different from booster packs:

★★★★★Mega Rare0.01%0.082%

Expected Value per Spin

Wheel Expected Value
E[spin] = P(nothing) × 0
        + P(card) × E[card value]
        + P(tokens) × E[tokens]

E[tokens] = (5 + 100) / 2 = 52.5 PONZI

The Wheel converts deprecated tokens into:
  • Current-season cards (stakeable for hashpower)
  • Current-season PONZI tokens (usable this season)

Legacy Token Economics

Legacy tokens from previous seasons retain value because they are the exclusive currency for Wheel spins. This creates interesting economic dynamics:

Floor Price Theory

Legacy Token Floor Value
V_legacy ≥ E[spin value] / 250

As long as the Wheel's expected value exceeds zero,
legacy tokens have non-zero intrinsic worth.
Old Tokens Keep Value

Legacy tokens retain a floor value proportional to the Wheel's expected value. They never go to zero as long as the Wheel exists.

Arbitrage Opportunity

When a season ends, legacy tokens often dump as holders panic-sell. Smart players accumulate cheaply and spin for current-season value at favorable rates.

No Player Left Behind

The game never fully abandons previous season participants. Old tokens always have a conversion path to new value.

💡
Pro tip: The best time to accumulate legacy tokens is right after a season transition, when the market overreacts. These tokens have guaranteed utility through the Wheel, making the dip a buying opportunity.
