Friends can join the same queue, but the match roll is random, so you may never face them.
My battles
Exiting is the only way to get your stake back before the term ends.
2 jackpots
A small one every day, a big one every week. Here's what's in each, who can win and when.
- 🎟Hold = get tickets. Every day you stay in a battle, you get more tickets.
- 💰Bigger bet = more tickets. 1 ticket per 1,000 $HOLDA, every day.
- 🧻Exit early = tickets gone. All tickets from that battle disappear.
- 🎉Sunday: 20 tickets are picked. The top 10 take 86% of the pot. More tickets, better chance to win.
- 🔄Then everyone starts from 0. Keep holding and you earn tickets for next Sunday.
Try the ticket calculator
1 ticket for every 1,000 $HOLDA you hold, every day.
Tickets reset after every Sunday draw. Longer battles don't give extra tickets per day, but they're in more weekly draws: a 30-day battle gets about 4 chances, a 100-day battle about 14.
Draw history
All pots pay out automatically to the winners' wallets. Every draw uses Switchboard VRF, so anyone can verify it on-chain.

How it works
Everything about HOLDA on one page.
Lock it
Pick mode, term and stake. Your bag goes straight into the vault. Changed your mind before it starts? Leave the queue for 2%.
Random match
Duel 1v1 or go free-for-all: 1 of 10 or 1 of 100. The battle starts the moment the queue is full.
Don't exit
First to exit pays 10% to 30%, rising every second. The holder takes 80% of it.
3 ways a battle can end
Example with a 100,000 stake$HOLDA token
The 3% tax funds the team, servers, audits and marketing. Battles where nobody exits pay 1% per stake, and queue quitters pay 2%. Both go into the Daily Pot, straight back to players. The platform takes nothing from battles. Burns and the jackpot come from jeet penalties, so the more people paper-hand, the scarcer $HOLDA gets.
FAQ
Can I cancel after I lock?
Only while you're still waiting in the queue. Leaving the queue costs 2% of your stake, which goes into the Daily Pot. If a queue still isn't full 72 hours after it opened, a 1 of 10 starts with whoever is in if there are at least 5 players, and a 1 of 100 if there are at least 10. If there aren't enough (or it's a 1v1), the queue is cancelled and everyone gets 100% back, no fee. Once the battle starts, the only way out is the exit button and its penalty.
Who is my opponent?
Random. You lock into a queue, and the battle starts as soon as it's full, against whoever else locked in. There's no invite option, so you can't pick who you fight.
How do the big battles work (1 of 10, 1 of 100)?
Everyone locks the same stake. Every time someone exits early, their penalty goes into a pot (80%, the rest is burned and added to the jackpot). The last one still holding wins the whole pot right away. If the timer runs out first, everyone still holding splits the pot equally and pays the 1% vault fee on their stake.
What's the most I can win?
In a 1v1 it's 24% of your stake: your opponent exits on the last day (30% penalty) and you get 80% of it. In a 1 of N battle it's 24% of the stake from every other player, if they all exit late and you're the last one holding. A 1 of 100 at 100k each means up to +2.38M.
What if nobody exits?
Everyone gets their stake back minus 1%, plus jackpot tickets for every day they held. That 1% goes into the Daily Pot. If someone exits early, there's no fee at all: the penalty goes 80% to the holder, 10% burned, 10% to the jackpot.
What is the Daily Pot?
It collects 1% from every battle where nobody exits, plus 2% from anyone who leaves a queue before their battle starts. Every day at 20:00 the pot goes to 3 winners: 1st gets 50%, 2nd 30%, 3rd 20%. Everyone who held that day is in the draw, with 1 entry per 1,000 tokens staked. The platform never touches it.
Why does the term matter?
Short battles mostly end with both players holding, so you just pay the 1% fee. Long battles are where people crack and the real money moves. Pick a longer term if you trust your hands.
Is exiting the same as selling?
No. Your stake sits in the vault, so nothing is sold on the market. Exiting ends your part in the battle: the vault sends your stake back to your wallet minus the penalty. What you do with the tokens after that is up to you.
Why does the penalty go up?
It starts at 10% and climbs to 30% by the last day. Late jeets hurt more, and long holders get paid more when someone breaks.
