### Participation Questions

**How do I participate in HimFerno?**

When a round is active, simply send $BERA to the HimFerno contract. Your $BERA will be used to buy $HIM, and you'll receive raffle entries based on your bet amount.

**Is there a minimum bet amount?**

Yes, each round has a minimum bet amount set by the fee collector. This will be announced at the start of each round.

**Do I need to hold HIM tokens to participate?**

No, you can participate by simply betting with $BERA. However, holding HIM tokens gives you bonus entries, increasing your chances of winning.

**How are winners selected?**

Winners are selected completely randomly using Pyth Network's entropy (randomness) service. This ensures fair and tamper-proof selection.

### Rewards Questions

**What do I get if I win?**

If you win, you automatically receive 69% of all $HIM in the contract. This includes the initial $HIM fees and all $HIM purchased from players' bets.

**What happens to the rest of the tokens?**

The remaining 31% of $HIM tokens are burned (sent to a dead address), permanently reducing the total supply of $HIM.

**How do bonus entries work?**

If you hold HIM tokens in the same wallet you're betting from, you receive bonus entries:

| If You Hold      | Your Bonus   |
| ---------------- | ------------ |
| 6,969 + $HIM     | +5% Entries  |
| 696,969 + $HIM   | +15% Entries |
| 6,969,696 + $HIM | +25% Entries |

**Can I win multiple times?**

Yes! Each entry has an equal chance of winning, so technically you could win multiple rounds if you're extremely lucky.
