FAIR POND

THE MANIFESTO

"LET THEM FISH" 🎣

In the interest of your attention, I will try to keep this short’ish;

10 days ago an account on https://t.co/HcyrzxUpgW “WoodCampChad” launched his second game within a month, “Pair Pond ($PAIR)” after previously rugging his other multiplayer game “TicketThieves($THIEVES)” just moments before.

Despite the track record, immediately Pair Pond drew instant fanfare – for the first time in a long time, I saw users playing, interacting with each other, and genuinely sharing an experience in a crypto native game.

The idea behind the game itself wasn’t just good – it was great. There was a real stickiness to it. Genuine excitement, novel sort of gacha mechanics. It needed some work and had bugs around – but I felt it in my loins there was something here, for sure, and I wasn’t alone. I was having an awesome time digitally fishing in this multiplayer experience.

This year has been tough for me in crypto getting burned on memecoins and fomo outside of my comfort circle, but I thought my luck could change here. I invested over $3,000 to acquire ~1%+ of the token supply.

But little to no surprise, within 48 hours – the dev started having “issues” with the game.

First it was the bots – dev allowed users to create accounts at no cost, and at no verification.

Then it was the “treasury” – dev explained that he would work to combat the bots, but they had already drained the treasury.

And then it was the silence..

And on the 3rd day..when the market cap of $PAIR drifted from a previous all time high of $650,000 to just $15,000(held to the bottom basically) – believe it or not, I went to join the server to play and there were over 40+ real players online.

Players were still fishing – but everyone knew emotionally what came next.

Just another rug…another loss of time..

People were saying their last goodbyes. New friendships were made here over the course of the 3 days.

Tired of all the bullshit, I was struck with lightning.
Not this time, I said to myself.

Immediately I began taking measures to try and record the game, record the experience, and dig deeper into the mechanics and all that went wrong here.

What I found wont be surprising to hear if you’ve already made it this far..

I found out the dev was capping aggregate payouts between all players at $500/day, and siphoned over $17,000 in $SOL before taking the final blow and removing the website from being online.

Luckily in time, the good guys got enough of what we needed to start the resurgence, to start the rebuilding, to bring back the pond, but not just any pond, The FAIR Pond.

It is now my destiny as steward of the Fair Pond and self appointed Dock Master to bring this to life.
I believe whole heartedly Fair Pond has a chance to become the greatest crypto native game of all time.
Things will be done right here and transparent.
Things will be done FAIR.

And here’s where that starts;

The pond will open doors with a max of 500 people fishing at the same time. (we will scale this)
Fair Pond operates at a 90/10 split – 90% of all trading fees go to the treasury wallet that purchases tokens/prizes and handles distributions. The remaining 10% in $SOL fees go to the team wallet which will be sold as needed to pay for infra scaling needs as required.

All users are required to have a “Fishing License” (small amount of native token burned) and connect an X account to enter the game. The license enables you to start catching fish immediately with the base equipment and bait. In order to catch the more lucrative and rare fish, users will need to upgrade their equipment by purchasing and burning additional native tokens.

The team will acquire ~3.5% of all native tokens at launch, in which ~2% of the tokens will plan to be sold on an inconsistent amortized basis over the course of 90 days commencing 14 days from token launch. Please see more details in docs for reference.

Instead of the old Pair Pond experience whereas the sea was filled with shitters, lots of the time fake tokens users were launching themselves – Fair Pond is stocked solely with fish consuming the circulating top 25 market cap tokens on Solana and rare golden stock token fish.

In addition to being able to catch coin based fish themselves – we have now inserted ultra rare Pokemon RWA NFT’s (via Collector Crypt inventory) “Golden Card Fish” , which can be pulled up out of the ocean just as any normal fish for all users with above-base equipment.

This game has a chance to be something special, something novel, and I think I can be the right person to get it there.

There will be no more questions of the intricacies of the mechanics, if/when dev selling, of someone rugging, team bundling, whatever happens here – happens Fair. And if I lose money over doing it this way then so be it – but the people deserve better.

I welcome you to pick up your fishing license today, and come try out the Fair Pond yourself.

Good things happening here.

*Please note $FISH is a memecoin and should be treated as a memecoin with high volatility – there is no promise of rewards or profits in Fair Pond, $FISH, and qualified users should only participate at their own risk. Fair Pond is unaudited and being maintained by normal human beings that sleep.

Kind of wild Diem was under $365 dollars for over 4 months, don't know all the history but that seems like a big miss for not getting in under that price.

@Nstr_tj Looks like it didn't completely fill either so you thinking that's very bearish for next few months beyond this dipperuni and any bounce off of it?

Wlfi green on a red crypto day first time I've seen anything bullish for it months.
