Quick Start

From wallet to first bet in a few minutes.

Player journey blueprint — connect wallet, sign up, bet, claim, mint

You need a Solana wallet (Phantom, Solflare, Backpack), and enough SOL to cover your bet plus ~0.01 SOL for network and account fees.

Connect

Head to minebtc.fun and hit Connect Wallet.

Sign up

First time in, the app walks you through a short on-chain profile setup — pick your home country, optionally add a referrer, choose a callsign, and sign.

The recruitment hall. Every operator started here. You walk up, pick one of twelve flags from the banner wall, sign the scroll, and step inside. From now on, when your country wins, you win with it.

Your home country pays twice: once on the 60-second round and once on the mining war. Bets on other countries only pay the round. You can switch country later, but it costs 0.1 SOL and you have to be completely clear first (no stakes, no staked doges, no gameplay doge).

Place a bet

A bet is a country plus a direction (Down, Neutral, or Up). Four ways in:

  • Single. One country, one direction.
  • Batch. Up to ~45 picks in a single transaction, same stake each.
  • Autominer — fixed slate. Save your favourite picks, fund a vault, it plays them every round on autopilot.
  • Autominer — random. Set a count and one direction. The contract picks fresh countries for you each round.

Minimum bet is 0.0001 SOL. Start with a single bet on your home country — one round is enough to see the whole flow.

Your first bet. A single gold SOL coin, a country button, a direction. Marshal Volkov (or whichever leader you chose) is watching from behind you. Your country needs the vote. Drop the coin.

Claim

When a round resolves, winnings show up on the Claims tab. SOL drops to your wallet immediately. dogeBTC stacks as a pending balance on your profile — pull it out any time, minus a 10% refining fee that redistributes to everyone still holding pending dogeBTC.

Mining War winnings land on the same tab when the cycle settles.

Buy tickets, get a free doge

The core purchase flow of the game: you pay SOL for a bundle of betting tickets, and a free Bitcoin Doge NFT comes with it. The tickets are what you bet with; the doge is your character. One transaction, two things.

Open the Doges tab, pick a ticket tier (1–10 bundles per transaction), and sign. The NFT lands in your inventory. Tap Use for Gameplay on it to lock it in as your gameplay doge — that unlocks mutations, XP, Evolution, and mining war leaderboard points. You can still bet without a doge, but you skip all of that.

To pull a doge back out later, hit Request Unlock, wait for the next mining war to start, then Withdraw. The wait stops anyone from hot-swapping max-multiplier doges mid-cycle to farm the leaderboard.
