I’d like to propose a modular Windfall Lotto Scene that any land owner can deploy in Decentraland.
The goal is to provide:
A fun, low-risk lottery experience for players
A simple revenue model for hosts
A reusable scene template creators can customize
Full transparency on draws and winners
The jackpot and tickets are denominated in MANA.
This proposal is for community feedback first, to see if this concept is technically and socially acceptable before moving further.
Goals
Create a ready-to-deploy Lotto Scene where:
Players buy tickets using MANA
Hosts receive a fixed percentage from ticket sales
Weekly draw events distribute jackpots automatically
Tickets are NFTs and freely transferable
Creators can customize parameters when hosting the scene
Core Mechanics (Default Parameters, Editable by Hosts)
These are defaults, every scene owner can change them:
Ticket System
Example pricing:
1 MANA = 5 tickets (fully configurable)
Tickets are NFTs if possible
Total supply example: 1,000,000 pre-minted tickets
Tickets can be transferred between players
Host Revenue
Host receives 10% of ticket purchases
If a ticket is transferred and later wins:
Original ticket owner (only the first buyer, can be transferred to many wallets) receives 10% of that winner’s payout
Player Rules (Default Parameters, Editable by Hosts)
Number Selection
Each ticket contains 5 numbers
Numbers range: 0-99
Numbers do not need to be unique
Draw Logic (Weekly Event)
Every week:
5 winning numbers are generated
Prize distribution follows a windfall cascade:
Windfall Structure
If 5 matches → jackpot shared between all 5-match winners
If no 5 matches → fall back to 4 matches
If no 4 matches → fall back to 3 matches
If still no winners:
Jackpot rolls over to next week
All payouts are in MANA.
In-Scene Gallery
Each scene contains a public gallery showing:
Winning numbers
Winners’ wallet addresses / Names / Profiles
Dates of draws
History displayed for the last 30 draws.
This keeps everything transparent and verifiable.
Target Audience
Players
Anyone who wants to play lotto with relatively small risk
Casual users looking for weekly entertainment
Hosts / Creators
Land owners wanting an easy-to-deploy scene
Creators looking for passive income mechanics
Community organizers running events
General User Journey
Player enters lotto scene
Buys NFT ticket(s) with MANA
Picks 5 numbers
Waits for weekly draw
Checks gallery for results
Winners automatically receive MANA minus fees and bonus for the ticket buyer
Why This Matters
This system would:
Add a repeatable gameplay loop to Decentraland
Incentivize creators to build simple interactive scenes
Encourage social participation around weekly events
Create a plug-and-play economic mini-game for land owners
Community Questions
Before moving forward, I’d love feedback on:
Is this technically feasible within current Decentraland SDK + DAO rules?
Would NFT-based transferable lotto tickets be acceptable?
Does the revenue model feel fair?
Would creators actually deploy something like this?
Any regulatory or DAO concerns?
