Prize Pool Breakdown for Weekly Maidens
Hey ZED Headz
We get it, you're frustrated about the new 10% racing fees and the changes to the Maiden. We hear you, and we're not taking your concerns lightly.
Here’s the deal: 5% of the racing fee goes straight to the treasury for future prize pools and 5% as a fee. The 10% racing fee may feel high, but when it’s broken down and split, it means bigger rewards that will directly benefit the community, and long term sustainability and growth for the game.
Now, about the Weekly Maidens, we introduced them to give new racehorses more chances to race and grow through the game, not just be left to gather dust. We know some segments got the short end of the stick before, but we want to fix that and make things fair moving forward.
Here's what we're doing with the Prize Pools:
- Weekly Maiden treasury prize pool is $10,000 for the first month
$30,000 for the other three segments, split as follows:
- $12,500 for <250 and x01-x80 (just <250 in C1)
- $12,500 for the <500 races
- $5,000 to be split in the unconditional Weekly Premiers
That’s $40,000 weekly in Prize Pools combined.
We genuinely appreciate your passion for the game and your engagement in the community. Your feedback is essential to us: good, bad and pitchfork, we’re actively listening.
