# What is CTpot?

CTpot is a **fully on-chain lottery** built for the **ChogTard ecosystem**.

Users enter lottery rounds using **CHOGTARD tokens only**, and winners are selected **automatically on-chain**.\
No admins. No custody. No trust required.

***

### How CTpot Works

CTpot follows a simple flow:

1. Users buy tickets using **CHOGTARD**
2. **10,000 CHOGTARD = 1 ticket**
3. Tickets are recorded on-chain
4. When the round ends, **one winner is picked**
5. The prize pool is sent **directly to the winner**

Everything happens through smart contracts.

***

### Why CTpot?

Traditional lotteries rely on trust.

CTpot removes that by using:

* On-chain ticket tracking
* Automatic winner selection
* Instant payouts
* Public, verifiable logic

If it’s not on-chain, it doesn’t exist.

***

### Ticket Pricing

CTpot uses **fixed pricing**.

* 🎟 **10,000 CHOGTARD = 1 Ticket**
* No price oracles
* No USD conversion
* No variable rates

Simple and predictable.

***

### Supported Token

CTpot currently supports **only one token**:

#### ✅ CHOGTARD

* Used for ticket purchases
* Used for the prize pool
* No other tokens accepted

Support for more tokens may come later.\
At launch, **CHOGTARD only**.

***

### Key Properties

* 🔐 Fully on-chain
* 🎲 Trustless winner selection
* 🏆 Instant payouts
* 📊 Fully transparent

No admin can:

* Change winners
* Withdraw funds
* Modify ticket prices

***

### Important Note

CTpot is decentralized software.\
Participation is optional and at your own risk.

Always verify contract addresses before interacting.
