Burn/Boost Game

A Fun and Competitive Game to Decide a Meme’s Fate

Disclaimer: The Burn/Boost Game is part of Sandbox Mode and uses Burns points, the platform’s internal, non-monetary currency. No real tokens or money are involved, and memes voted on in this game will not result in a memecoin launch or bonding curve listing.

The Burn/Boost Game is a central feature of Sandbox Mode on Burning Meme, where users vote on the fate of submitted memes using Burns points. This is purely a game for exploration and fun, with no real tokens or financial risk involved.

How the Burn/Boost Game Works

1. Meme Submission Meme creators submit their memes to the platform, initiating the Burn/Boost Game. Submitted memes enter a voting stage, where the community decides whether to Boost or Burn them.

2. Voting Period The voting stage lasts for a limited time (e.g., 1 hour). During this time, users vote by locking their Burns points:

   • Boost: Supporters vote to “Boost” the meme, showing their belief in its potential.

   • Burn: Opponents vote to “Burn” the meme, expressing their skepticism.

3. Fair Voting Formula To ensure fairness and reduce the risk of manipulation, the voting power is calculated using a formula that balances influence and timing, making the voting process transparent and equitable.

4. Outcome At the end of the voting period, the side with the higher score wins:

   • If Boosters win, the meme is declared successful in the game, and the Boost team takes all the locked Burns points.

   • If Burners win, the meme is “burned,” and the Burn team takes all the locked Burns points.
