How to Play

1. Connect

Connect the wallet holding an eligible TickerHead. The terminal verifies ownership on Robinhood Chain and unlocks the game.

No wallet? You can still watch the live market — price, tape, signals, rival positions and the leaderboard — with no wallet and no session. Spectators cannot trade or earn.

2. Receive Your TIC

Every eligible player starts each round with 1,000 TIC. NFT quantity and rarity make no difference.

3. Meet the Daily Ticker

One fictional meme token per round, with its own name, artwork, lore, starting price, liquidity and market personality.

4. Trade

Buy with TIC. Sell back to TIC. Four decisions matter:

When to buy
How much to risk
When to sell
How much of the position to keep

Optionally arm stop-loss and take-profit orders so an exit fires while you are away.

5. Trade in at Least Three Sprints

Each hour of the round is a sprint, scored on its own. You are only scored for a sprint you traded in.

You need at least three scored sprints across the season to be eligible for rewards. This is a hard gate — see Reward Eligibility.

6. Beat the Field

Your score in each sprint compares your equity change against every other wallet that traded that same hour. Matching the field scores zero. Beating it scores positive. Losing to it scores negative.

Making a profit is not enough on its own. If you made 5% in an hour where the typical trader made 12%, you scored below the field.

7. Season Settlement

At season end, your points determine your share of the two reward pools.
