How QuoPull works

Only if the wallet that signs the buy holds at least one Art Pass. For the first hour after the pool is created, the pool checks the pass balance of the wallet that signed the transaction, and a buy from a wallet with no pass is refused. Nothing is swapped and you pay only gas.

A pass anywhere else does not count: not in another wallet you own, not in a cold wallet or vault you do not sign the buy with, not in a Safe or other smart contract wallet, and not one you have only delegated. Move one pass into the wallet you will buy from before launch, or wait for the hour to end.

Yes. A delegated mint sends the passes to the hot wallet that did the minting, so that wallet holds them and can buy. The vault wallet that granted the delegation does not hold those passes.

Two, on top of the pass check, and both follow the wallet that signs:

• Cooldown. At least 2 minutes between two buys from the same wallet.
• Size cap. Each buy can spend at most a fixed amount of ETH until that wallet has spent 10 times that amount during the hour. After that its buys are uncapped. Only ETH actually spent counts (the tax included), so a string of tiny buys does not use the cap up.

The cap is written into the pool's hook when it is deployed and can never be changed. The swap screen shows the exact figure and how much of your capped budget is left. None of these limits apply to sells.

Not until the hour is over. Once a wallet has bought during the hour, no pass can be transferred out of that wallet until the hour ends. Passes can still be sent into it, and wallets that did not buy during the hour can move passes as normal. This stops one pass being passed around to unlock several buying wallets.

Anyone can buy from any wallet, with no pass, no cooldown and no size cap, and the pass transfer lock switches off. This happens by itself; nobody has to turn it on. The higher sell tax is on its own clock and keeps stepping down for 48 hours (see Tax and swaps).

Use a normal wallet, where the account you connect is the account that signs and sends the transaction. Packs and leaderboard points are credited to the account that signed the transaction, not to the wallet the tokens come from. With a Safe that is the owner key that executed it. With a gasless or relayed wallet it is the relayer, and packs can never be moved to you afterwards.

During the first hour the pass check, the cooldown and the size cap also look at that signing account, so a Safe's passes do not count, and everyone who uses the same relayer shares one cooldown and one cap.

Buys pay 4%. Sells pay 20% for the first 12 hours, then 16%, 12% and 8%, one step every 12 hours, and 4% from 48 hours on. The clock starts when the pool is created, the same moment the first hour starts.

The tax is always taken in ETH (as WETH), never in QPULL, and it is the stated percent of the ETH side of the trade, rounded by at most one wei. Plain QPULL transfers between wallets are not taxed; only swaps in the official QPULL/WETH pool are, and only buys in that pool earn packs and points.

All of it goes to the Treasury contract. Each time the Treasury converts a batch, 20% goes to team + operations (kept as WETH) and 80% is turned into $QUOTRON for prizes: 61.25% of all tax to the daily raffle vault, 12.5% to the weekly leaderboard vault and 6.25% to the weekly holder draw vault. Those percentages are fixed in the contract, and where each share is sent is locked at launch.

• Price moves. Every swap from this site carries a minimum amount you will receive. If the price moves past it, the whole swap is cancelled and you pay only gas.
• Slow to confirm. Every swap from this site also carries a 10 minute deadline. If it is not mined in time, it cancels itself and you pay only gas.
• Not enough liquidity. A buy from this site, or any buy that names the exact ETH it spends, is cancelled as a whole if the pool cannot fill it completely, never half filled, and so is a sell made from this site. A buy made in another app that names the exact QPULL it wants to receive has no such check.
• Too little gas. A buy that runs out of gas while its packs or points are being recorded is cancelled as a whole, so a low gas limit cannot make you pay the tax and miss your packs. Send it again with more gas. The site already sets a generous gas limit on buys.

No. Some swap apps let you name the exact amount you want to receive instead of the amount you pay. Those swaps pay the true rate too: an exact output buy pays 4% of all the ETH it spends, and an exact output sell pays the full current sell rate on its gross ETH. The swap on this site always uses the amount you pay.

The tax itself arrives as ETH, so the only QPULL the Treasury ever holds is QPULL someone sent to it. When the Treasury converts, it sells that QPULL into the pool in limited slices without paying the trade tax, and the ETH it gets follows the same 20% / 80% split. A small balance waits until it reaches the minimum batch size before it is sold.

One pack for every ticket price of ETH you spend, the tax included. Whatever is left over is banked and counts toward your next buy. The count depends on the ETH you spend, not on the QPULL you receive, so slippage never changes it.

One buy mints at most the per-buy pack limit. Value above that is not lost: it stays banked and mints on your later buys. The limit starts at 100 packs and the owner can change it, never above 200. The ticket price is an ETH amount the owner re-pegs to stay near $10, by at most 25% and at most once a day. The swap screen estimates your packs from the live values before you buy.

No. Every pack you buy is entered automatically in each draw it is eligible for. You only act to claim a win, to rip packs that did not win, and to pledge Art Passes for free entries.

No. Every live pack in a draw has exactly the same chance. The draw never looks at a pack's rarity. Rarity only decides which prize bucket a winning pack is paid from: Super rare 45% of the day's pot, Rare 25%, Uncommon 20%, Common 10%, each bucket split equally between that day's winners of that rarity. A bucket with no winner that day pays nothing and its share stays in the vault for later pots.

Packs reveal as Common 80% of the time, Uncommon 15%, Rare 4% and Super rare 1%, from a Drand beacon that did not exist when you bought, so anyone can recompute every roll.

No. Packs are not tokens. Each pack is recorded to the wallet that made the buy, and there is no function to move it. Its prize claim and its rip XP can only ever go to that wallet.

Packs bought on a game day are in the draws for the next 7 game days, one draw per day, so a pack gets 7 chances unless it wins first. A pack that wins leaves the draw.

Each day's draw can be run during the following game day, by anyone. If it is not run in that time, that day is skipped for good and its pot simply stays in the vault. If the vault is too small to pay a day's pot, that day does not draw yet and no pack is used up.

Each daily draw pays a percentage of the raffle vault's free balance, capped at a maximum pot, to a set number of winners (never more than 200). Those three, and the minimum pot, are owner settings: each change is limited to 25% up or down (a very small value can still rise by one) and to once a day, a change only applies from the next game day, and the percentage can never be more than half the vault. The pot is only ever what the vault actually holds, so no prize amount is guaranteed.

There are no draws in the first 2 game days while packs and the prize pot build up. After that, a one time opening draw picks 5 winners from the packs bought in those 2 days, and only then do the daily draws begin. Packs from the first 2 days also stay in the daily draws for the rest of their 7 days.

If the prize vault is still too small to pay the opening, it waits. From one day later it can be deliberately skipped instead; then nobody is paid by it, no pack is used up, and the money stays in the vault for the daily draws.

Every pack's rarity is sealed to a future Drand beacon, and a draw is not allowed to run while any pack in it is still unrevealed. If a reveal beacon has not been posted on chain yet, the draw simply waits, nothing is used up, and it runs once the beacon is posted. Daily draws should never have to wait, because packs reveal shortly after their buying day ends, before their first draw. The opening draw can wait for the last reveals.

A win does not pay automatically. It writes a claim for the winning wallet, which you collect from the app (one transaction can collect many). Only the winning wallet can collect it, and you have 30 days from the draw. After that the claim expires, and anyone can return the unclaimed $QUOTRON to its prize vault's pot, where it funds future draws. The same applies to holder draw and leaderboard prizes.

A pack that finishes its 7 draws without winning can be ripped for leaderboard XP. A rip banks 1.8% of the pack's ticket price times its rarity weight: Common 1, Uncommon 2, Rare 4, Super rare 10, so a Super rare banks 18% of its ticket price. The ticket price used is the lowest one paid for any pack bought on that same game day. Packs that won, and free Art Pass entries, bank no rip XP.

Ripping opens once the window for a pack's last draw has closed, and stays open for 7 game days. If you do not rip in that window, that pack's XP is gone. Ripping is always your choice; nothing rips on its own, and only the wallet that owns the pack can rip it.

Packs bought in the first 2 game days can be ripped only after the one time opening draw has run or been skipped. If that has still not happened when their rip window closes, those packs bank no XP. They never lose a prize because of this.

Your points for a week are the ETH you spent on buys that week (the tax included) plus the rip XP you banked that week. Selling never adds or removes points.

The 25 wallets with the most points are on the board. Each of them is paid the week's pot times its points, divided by all points earned that week by every wallet, on the board or not. The share belonging to wallets that are not on the board is not handed to the board: it stays in the vault for later weeks. So splitting the same buying across several wallets earns nothing extra. A wallet only joins a full board by beating the lowest score on it.

A week pays the smaller of the leaderboard vault's free balance and the week's pot cap, which the owner can move by at most 25% once a week, taking effect from the next week. Anything above the cap stays for later weeks.

Leaderboard weeks run from Sunday 00:00 UTC to the next Sunday 00:00 UTC. A week is settled during the following week, by anyone, normally right after it ends. If it is not settled within that following week it is skipped, and its pot stays in the vault. A pot below the minimum payout waits for more funding within that week rather than paying out dust. Prizes are claims with the same 30 day window.

Wallets holding 4 or more Art Passes. Nothing to opt into. Each week the draw picks 5 different passes at random from all minted passes and pays the owner of each one fifth of the pot, so more passes means more chances, and one wallet can win several of the five shares.

A picked pass only counts if its owner has held 4 or more passes without a break since before that week ended, still does when the draw runs, and has held that exact pass since before the week ended too. Otherwise the pick is skipped and re-rolled to another pass. The check happens when the draw runs, not when the week ends, so selling below 4 before the draw loses that week.

The owner can also exclude specific addresses from winning (it is meant for protocol and escrow wallets). An exclusion, or lifting one, only applies from the following week, so it can never change a week that has already ended.

Holder weeks are 7 day periods on the game clock (not the leaderboard's Sunday weeks). A week is drawn during the following week, once its random beacon is published about 4.5 days after the week ends; anyone can run it. The pot is the smaller of the holder vault's free balance and its pot cap, which has a hard ceiling fixed at deploy. If a week is not drawn by the end of the following week, it is skipped and the pot stays in the vault. Winners collect within 30 days.

A pass that changes wallets after a week has ended cannot win that week, for the sender or the receiver; if it is picked, the pick is re-rolled. If a transfer takes your wallet below 4 passes, your wallet stops qualifying at once, including for a week that has ended but has not been drawn yet, and once it is back at 4 or more it qualifies again only for weeks that end after that moment. Buying passes after a week has ended never helps for that week.

Yes, once the daily draws have started (the opening draw is packs only).

• Super rare passes enter every daily draw automatically, with weight 8, after a one time registration that anyone can do, you included, from the app.
• Common, Uncommon and Rare passes enter only on game days you pledge them in the app, with weight 1, 2 or 4. A pledge covers that game day's draw only.

All free entries together are limited to 10% of the paid packs in that day's draw, however many passes enter. That share is a slice of the paid draw, not a pool of its own, so it moves with how many packs were bought: a day whose draw holds fewer than 10 paid packs has no free entries at all, because ten percent of nine rounds down to nothing. Pledging more passes never enlarges the share, it only divides the same slice among more passes. A pass only counts if its current owner held it before that game day ended. A free win is paid from a freshly rolled prize bucket, not from the pass's own rarity, and banks no rip XP.

Its pledge stops counting. A pledge belongs to the wallet that made it, so after a transfer the pass is skipped in that day's draw unless its new owner pledges it again, and even then it counts only if the new owner held it before that game day ended. Moving a Super rare after a game day has ended gives up that pass's free seats in that day's draw.

No. The launch liquidity is added once, by a lock contract that has no function to remove it, withdraw it or collect its fees, and the pool itself refuses every liquidity removal from anyone. The entire QPULL supply is sent to that lock and paired into the pool at launch: there is no presale, no team token allocation and no tokens held back.

Contracts, not people. The trade tax sits in the Treasury contract until it is converted, and prizes sit as $QUOTRON in three prize vault contracts. A prize vault has no withdrawal function for anyone: $QUOTRON leaves a vault only when a winner collects a prize written for them. Prizes are always paid in $QUOTRON.

The team does run the keeper that converts the tax, and sets the size and slippage limits for those conversions. Once routing is locked at launch it cannot change where the money goes or the split.

Every contract address is published in Contracts. Before you sign a mint, delegation, swap, approval, claim, rip, pledge or pass registration, the app shows the contract it is about to call, with a link to the block explorer, so you can compare it with the published address. A delegation is a transaction to the delegate.xyz registry, not to QuoPull, and that registry's address is listed in Contracts too. QuoPull never asks for your seed phrase, and never asks for an unlimited token approval.
