π² Why We Seed the Pot
In the early stages, an empty lottery pool can feel uninviting. To make the first rounds more engaging, we sometimes seed the pot by playing with our own wallets. This ensures:
- Kickstarting activity: prevents the βempty roomβ effect for new players.
- Better player experience: a livelier pool makes wins more exciting.
- Support for donations: even seeded tickets can contribute to cause wallets.
Seeded tickets are standard tickets with identical odds. No special treatment, no hidden advantages β and always visible on Polygonscan.

Why disclose this?
Because transparency builds trust. Seeding is common in new markets, and we choose to do it openly.
How often do you seed?
