Virtual Hashrate Mechanics

🧠 What Is Virtual Hashrate?

StrikeBit will introduce a virtual hashrate system that powers token emissions in a gamified and sustainable way — without requiring any hardware or physical infrastructure.

Your Radiant AI Miner is your mining unit — and its simulated hashrate determines how much $HUB you earn over time. This system encourages participation, upgrades, and strategy — not idle staking.

🔰 Miner Tiers and Base Hashrate

Radiant AI Miners come in five tiers:

Tier	Description	Base Hashrate	Bonus Options
Bolt Miner	Earned passively via Bolts	Variable (Bolt-based)	Boostable with Binary NFTs
Hub Miner	Earned through direct $HUB staking	100–1,000	Scales by lock duration
Core Miner	$299 Radiant AI Agent (legacy)	1,500	Legacy bonus + fusion boost
Prime Miner	$499 Radiant AI Agent (legacy)	2,500	Mid-tier boost
Elite Miner	$699 Radiant AI Agent (legacy)	4,000	Max passive hashrate

Higher-tier miners receive priority access, better claim rates, and more favorable upgrade paths.

🔩 What Powers Hashrate?

Beyond the base tier, your total hashrate is determined by:

Method	Effect	Notes
Staking $HUB	+Linear hashrate (e.g. 1 hashrate per 10 $HUB)	Boostable via NFT tiers
rStrike Staking	+Bonus multiplier on total wallet hashrate	Lock duration-based scaling
Bolt XP	+Earn Bolt Miner status over time	Converts into seasonal reward class
Burning $HUB	+Instant hashrate burst (e.g. 1,000 burned = +500)	Short-term boost, introduces deflation
Fusion Tokens	+Upgrade any miner NFT to next class	Requires burn + cooldown period

🌀 Game Loop: Mining Flow

1. Acquire Miner NFTs or stake $HUB/rStrike

2. Earn Simulated Hashrate

3. Share of seasonal $HUB emission pool

4. Use earned $HUB to:

   • Stake again → More hashrate

   • Burn for upgrades → Trait ascension

   • Purchase new agents/NFTs → Further loop

   • Fuel INOs or agent deployment

💠 $HUB Integration

$HUB is more than a utility token — it fuels the entire mining economy of StrikeBit.

🔹 $HUB Use Cases in Hashrate System:

• Burn $HUB to permanently increase a miner's hashrate

• Stake $HUB to activate global miner boosts

• Spend $HUB on fusion materials or skin-based buffs

• Deploy Agents with $HUB to gain additional mining multipliers

Each $HUB interaction increases output, making it both a governance token and a mining resource.

🕰️ Mining Seasons & Halving: Reward Scarcity with Purpose

To create long-term sustainability and emulate real mining dynamics, $HUB’s simulated hashrate system is built on a seasonal halving model. This system ensures that early miners are rewarded more heavily while maintaining value and scarcity as the network matures.

---

📅 What Are Mining Seasons?

Each season represents a fixed epoch of time—30 days—during which a predetermined amount of $HUB is distributed to all wallets participating in the hashrate pool.

• Each wallet earns rewards proportionally to their simulated hashrate.

• At the end of each season, rewards reset and the next emission phase begins.

---

⚖️ Reward Halving Structure

To replicate scarcity and reward early adoption, mining rewards decrease over time based on a progressive halving schedule.

Total capped emission via mining: 400,000,000 $HUB (40% of supply)

🧠 Why Simulated Hashrate?

• Sustainable & deflationary — no idle emissions or passive inflation

• On-chain & transparent — all boosts and hashrate changes are verifiable

• Expandable — future events, agent battles, or leaderboard bonuses are built into the system logic
