Value flow

Pearl Diver game systems are built around this value flow:
Players get PEARL tokens by participating in the starter public sale via smart-contract or buying them on a decentralized exchange from the market.
At the same time of purchase players locking their PEARL tokens in the game.
Each day, the game's Asset Management performs trying to generate profit.
The game collects information about the Asset Management daily proceeds and if any – distributes rewards to the players:
Players can withdraw their earned rewards at any time.
However, they can only unlock their already locked PEARL tokens after a specific period of time (all starter public sale’s PEARL are locked (cliffed) in a locking contract for 365 days from the date of purchase, after which a linear drip unlock period (vesting) begins which unlocks the entire volume of a single purchase for the next 600 days, which is approximately 5% per month)
The simplified game value flow chart looks like this:

The above diagram in words, would provide a more in-depth understanding and nuances to it.
The main economic core loop is within the PEARL rewards system itself. At first, players purchase and lock their PEARL on the smart contract and a portion of the fund that is generated by the PEARL pack purchases at the end of each day, the Asset Management securely sends back information to the game server regarding its profit for the day. This profit, if any, is used to interact with the ecosystem generating rewards. There are two states that can take place, and the method used is dictated by several factors.
State 1: Pearl Distribution Fund is active
Pearl Diver offers a robust and transparent distribution system that rewards players based on the daily profit data from exchanges. When there are tokens available in the distribution fund, players receive Pearl rewards proportional to the profit generated by the Asset Management throughout the day.
To illustrate this mechanism, consider an example: If the Asset Management achieves a profit of 100 USDT for the day, an equivalent amount of Pearl tokens will be withdrawn from the Pearl Distribution fund and allocated to the staking rewards pool. This ensures that players are directly awarded proportionally to their Pearl token holdings.
Moreover, during the period when the Distribution Fund is active, 50% of the profit remains on the exchanges with The Asset Management, allowing further capital growth. The remaining 50% of the profit is sent to PancakeSwap, where it is utilized exclusively for buybacks of Pearl tokens. These bought-back tokens are then used for NFT minting, adding value and utility to the ecosystem. Importantly, the burning process occurs during the NFT minting process, ensuring a reduction in token supply.
By implementing this comprehensive distribution system, Pearl Diver establishes a fair and transparent reward structure that aligns the game's success with the players' earnings. The integration of profit-based rewards, token buybacks, and NFT minting creates a dynamic economy that enhances the gameplay experience and encourages active participation.
State 2: Pearl Distribution Fund is depleted
As the Pearl Distribution fund gradually depletes, a shift occurs in the distribution of profits generated from exchanges within Pearl Diver. When the fund no longer has sufficient Pearl tokens, a revised profit-sharing mechanism comes into play.
At this stage, the Asset Management directs 50% of its profits in USDT to PancakeSwap for the purpose of buying back openly traded PEARL tokens from the market. 50% of the bought-back PEARL tokens are utilized in the NFT minting process, enhancing the creation of unique and valuable digital collectibles. These tokens undergo a burning process, effectively reducing the token supply and increasing its value per unit.
The remaining 50% of the bought-back Pearl tokens are then returned to the Staking Contract, where they form the basis for rewarding players within the game. This ensures that players continue to receive rewards even as the initial Pearl Distribution fund is depleted.
Simultaneously, 50% of the profit in USDT equivalent is retained within the exchanges, allowing the Asset Management to maintain a capital base for ongoing trading operations. This allocation ensures that the Asset Management can continue to leverage its expertise and resources to generate profits in the market.
By implementing this comprehensive profit-sharing framework, Pearl Diver not only sustains the engagement and rewards for players but also facilitates the ongoing development of the game’s ecosystem. The combination of NFT minting, token burning, and continued staking rewards creates a dynamic and engaging financial model that enhances the overall player experience both short and long-term.
