How it works
Private chat
Messages travel through a private network (Veilid), like Tor: nobody sees who you are or your IP. Private messages are end-to-end encrypted, and everything vanishes after 24 hours.
Points for joining in
Chat in the Square and win games to earn points every day. Points decide your share of the Christmas Pool.
Games and gifts
Trivia, Snowball Fights, Tic-Tac-Toe, the Christmas Wheel and Challenges. Give points to people who made your Christmas brighter.
Christmas Day
The pool is shared by points, straight to your wallet. Free: North Pole pays the network fees.
FAQ
Is it free?
Yes. The app is free, and so are withdrawals of your Christmas share.
Do I need crypto?
No. The app can make a wallet for you (12 recovery words). Or log in with MetaMask.
Who can read my chats?
Nobody but the people you talk to. There's no central server holding chats; the lobby only introduces people.
Can the owner take the pool?
No. The pool contract has no owner and no withdraw function. Money only leaves on Christmas, to the elves, by points.
