Stake Quest

Staking is one of the safest forms of yield in crypto. But it is also one of the most unexciting. StakeQuest changes that. By employing the same habit forming techniques to stimulate even the most fried dopamine receptors of the biggest Solana degens, we hope to pull focus from ponzis and shitcoin casinos back to a reliable, dependable source of yield and to form healthier financial habits.

Borrowing heavily from Nir Erwal's Hooked (and with more than a nod to Adventure Capitalist) Stake Quest is an idle mining game that makes staking fun, compulsive and entertaining:

• See your portfolio grow in real time, by fractions of a SOL or $
• Random loot drops with variable rewards to build habits
• Lots of progress bars you can't help but want to fill
• Points and referrals for virality
• Endless mini achievements to constantly give the user something new to do

Staking track

By gamifying staking we aim to add appeal to liquid staking to a much broader audience, and reward users for staking a greater share of their liquid SOL In the future there will be opportunities to generate additional low risk yield via SOL/xSOL yield pools, lending + more

Metaplex track

We're using Metaplex cNFT tools via BackAnUnderdog protocol to store player data. Every loot box opened and every coin clicked is track to keep an on chain record of their score. Stable diffusion is integrated to generate a unique mariner, pirate or explorer for each adventurer
