# Roadmap

> What's built and provable, what's launching, and what comes after.

Ace Up is provably fair blackjack inside Telegram, with a white-label program
that lets any group run its own venue. The game is live on **Solana mainnet**
with real SOL since 18 September 2026.

Everything below is either **shipped and provable**, or honestly marked as not
yet. Where something is waiting, this page says what on.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Updated 20 September 2026. Nothing here carries a date we haven't earned —
> items are ordered, not scheduled.

## The game · Built

Not a prototype. The engine, the money and the white-label program are written,
tested and running. Every item here is something a test or a transaction can
prove.

> [card] [Provably fair blackjack](https://aceup.mintlify.site/fair/overview.md)
>
> Six decks, reshuffled every round. The shuffle is committed before the deal
> and the seed revealed after, so any hand replays in your own browser.

> [card] [An edge we measured](https://aceup.mintlify.site/play/rules.md)
>
> 0.89% on the main hand, measured over 9,000,000 rounds on our own engine
> rather than quoted from a chart.
> Side-bet edges printed beside it.

> [card] [Money that reconciles](https://aceup.mintlify.site/money/wallet.md)
>
> Every balance is counted in whole units with its own reference, and an
> automatic check alerts us the moment the books and the coins we actually
> hold stop matching.

> [card] [The white-label program](https://aceup.mintlify.site/owners/index.md)
>
> Venues run on the owner's own bot. Losses carry forward, so an owner can
> never owe money.

**Both rails have moved real coin** — deposited, credited, swept, played and
withdrawn, end to end, on chain:

| Rail | Proof |
| - | - |
| SOL | devnet round trip · tx `3HxY9LWP…` · slot 496784825 |

**Player protection that binds** — 21+, restricted-jurisdiction terms, self-
exclusion with no early lift anywhere in the code, daily limits you set, and
kill switches at platform, venue and player level.

## Real-money play · Live on Solana

Since **18 September 2026** Ace Up takes real SOL on Solana mainnet: deposits,
play at the house tables, withdrawals to your own wallet. Hands are capped at
**0.15 SOL** while the bankroll grows; the cap is printed on the felt.

> [!NOTE]
>
> **A second asset is next.** The rail is built and has moved real coin on a
> testnet; it opens when the bankroll is funded for it.

What is running:

> [card] [Deposits in SOL (ETH next)](https://aceup.mintlify.site/money/deposit.md)
>
> An address that's yours on each chain, credited about 30 seconds after the
> network confirms it.

> [card] A bankroll we fund
>
> The house is backed by us, not by venue owners and not by players. Table
> limits are published before you sit down.

> [card] [Withdrawals to any wallet](https://aceup.mintlify.site/money/withdraw.md)
>
> Confirmed in the bot, sent on chain, network fee paid by us so the amount
> you ask for is the amount that lands.

> [card] [The first venues](https://aceup.mintlify.site/owners/index.md)
>
> A small pilot — our own community, then partner groups — before the
> white-label program opens to anyone who asks.

## \$ACEUP · Next

A fixed-supply token, fair launch, no presale, no team unlock schedule,
tradeable from the first block.

> [card] Cashback on what you wager
>
> A share of what you bet comes back weekly in \$ACEUP, win or lose. Paid on
> volume, never on losses — so it can't reward chasing one.

> [card] Bought back with real revenue
>
> Funded from the house's share of what the tables actually win — not by
> printing new tokens, and not out of anything promised to venue owners.

> [card] Deposit and hold \$ACEUP
>
> Joins SOL and ETH as an asset you can deposit, hold and withdraw, and it
> sets your cashback tier. Betting in it comes later.

> [card] [An option for owners](https://aceup.mintlify.site/owners/revenue-share.md)
>
> Owners may elect to take their weekly payout in \$ACEUP. The default stays
> SOL and ETH, and the percentage doesn't change either way.

### Where a winning week goes

When the tables win more than they pay out over a week, that surplus splits like
this. There is nothing taken off the top first.

| | Share |
| - | - |
| **Venue owner** — unchanged. The token is funded from our share, never theirs | **30%** |
| **Platform** — bankroll, custody, engineering, support, and the \$ACEUP buyback and cashback | **70%** |
| **Taken from players as rake or table fee** — there is no rake; the house edge is the only thing the house earns | **0%** |

pons.family also routes most of each trade's pool fee back to the token's
creator, so secondary volume feeds the same treasury that buys the token back.

## Things worth playing for · Next

Reasons to come back that don't involve pushing anyone to bet more than they
meant to.

> [card] A progressive jackpot
>
> A slice of every side bet feeds one pot that pays out on the rarest hands. It grows in public, on the table, and the odds of hitting it
> are printed like every other number here.

> [card] The weekly race
>
> A leaderboard by amount wagered, with a prize pool paid from the house's
> share every week. Your position and the pot are both live while you play.

> [card] Crates, with the odds on the box
>
> Packs bought with \$ACEUP holding card backs, table felts and cashback
> boosts. Every crate publishes its drop table before you open it.

> [card] [Hands worth sharing](https://aceup.mintlify.site/fair/verify-a-round.md)
>
> Any hand becomes a link anyone can open — the cards, the payout, and the
> proof it was dealt straight, with no account needed.

> [!NOTE]
>
> A crate with hidden odds is a slot machine wearing a bow. Ours publish their
> drop tables for the same reason the [house edge is printed](https://aceup.mintlify.site/play/rules.md).

Player referrals land alongside the owner tier that already exists, paid in
\$ACEUP from the house's share.

## \$ACEUP at the table · Later

Betting in \$ACEUP is the goal. It waits on the bankroll, not on a date — and
here is the honest arithmetic behind that.

Here is the problem in one line: **the house keeps about 0.89% of everything
wagered, and crypto routinely moves 5–10% in a day.**

If the money backing the tables were held in our own token, the day's price
move would decide whether the house was up or down — not the cards. That is a
trading desk in a dealer's uniform, and it is how token-backed casinos run out
of money to pay winners.

**What unlocks it:** a bankroll deep enough to absorb the variance, or bets
sized in SOL and settled in \$ACEUP so the player holds the token and the house
doesn't carry the direction. Whichever lands first, the limits go up before the
tables open.

## More game, more places to play · Later

Ordered by how often each is asked for, not by how interesting it is to build.

| | |
| - | - |
| **Play without opening the app** | Hit and stand from the group chat itself, for hands that don't need a table |
| **Dice, coinflip, roulette** | The same proof you can check yourself, the same ledger. New games, identical guarantees |
| **Tables priced in dollars** | A dollar-pegged stablecoin, for players who'd rather their balance didn't move while they play |
| **More for owners** | Referral tiers between venues, and leaderboards built only on stats that can't embarrass anyone |

***

## What will not change

Roadmaps are easy to rewrite. These are the commitments we'd have to break to
move anything above forward faster — and we'd rather ship late.

> [card] The owner's half
>
> 30% of what the tables win at that venue, after paying out players.
> Every token mechanic is funded from our side of that line.

> [card] The edge stays printed
>
> Main hand, both side bets, jackpot odds, crate drop tables.

> [card] Every hand checkable
>
> Commit before the deal, reveal after, verified in your own browser by a page
> that needs no login.

> [card] No loss-chasing
>
> No deposit prompt after a loss, no nudge as you near a limit, no bonus with
> strings attached.

> [card] A pause is a pause
>
> Self-exclusion can't be shortened by you, by support, or by anyone. There is
> no function for it.

> [card] Money never trapped
>
> Withdrawal is never gated by terms, by a cap, by a pause, or by a venue
> closing.
