$ARCADE, and
what it actually does.
$ARCADE is the platform's own token. Today it is something you win — it sits in the Discovery reward table like any other asset, funded in the prize vault and paid out onchain. Soon it will also be something you spend.

What it does, and what it does not.
A reward you can win
Discovery still pays its $ARCADE prize in the previous ARCADE contract. Prizes move to the address above once the machine is updated onchain.
A way to pay for spins
Spins will be payable in $ARCADE. It needs a new machine contract — the live one takes payment as the chain's native asset and cannot be upgraded to accept a token. No date, and no discount promised.
Half of profit, bought and burned.
Half of the platform's realised profit is spent buying $ARCADE on the open market and sending it to a burn address. Profit, not revenue — measured from chain state after payouts and gas, so a losing run spends nothing. The figure below is read live from the burn address.
$ARCADE has no burn function, so the reported total supply does not change. The circulating amount does. Tokens go to 0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD, an address whose private key cannot exist.
