Overview
Prize Pool Top-Up allows anyone to increase the Prize Pool of an active lottery by contributing additional tokens directly to the lottery. This feature is available for all CoinLotto lottery types and enables communities, creators, partners, sponsors, or individual participants to increase the value of a lottery without changing its rules.How it works
A Prize Pool Top-Up transfers additional tokens directly into the lottery’s Prize Pool. Unlike purchasing tickets, a top-up does not create new entries or increase the contributor’s chances of winning. Its only purpose is to increase the total amount available to winning tickets.Fee treatment
The full top-up amount goes directly to the target Prize Pool. No Protocol Fee, Creator Fee, or Super Lottery Allocation applies to a Prize Pool Top-Up. Top-ups and top-up revocations are on-chain transactions and require a network gas fee.Who can top up?
Any wallet can top up an active lottery. The feature is permissionless and does not require a special role or approval.Revoking a top-up
A Prize Pool Top-Up may be revoked only after the lottery has ended and only if no tickets were sold. The funds can be revoked only by the wallet that made the original top-up. No other wallet can revoke or receive that top-up.What changes?
After a successful top-up:- The Prize Pool increases.
- The updated Prize Pool is immediately visible.
- The lottery rules remain unchanged.
- Prize Distribution remains unchanged.
- Any Super Lottery allocation remains unchanged because it is calculated from ticket revenue, not the Prize Pool.
