Gold Rush$RUSH

the onchain race between stocks and gold

Pick an asset.
Win the Rush.

Every Rush starts with a price snapshot. Gold and three stocks are normalised to 0% and tracked on relative performance until the round closes. Same starting line, best return wins, and the losers' HYPE is the winners' prize.

Gold is always in the race · the stocks change · the benchmark doesn't

price = what a Rush settles on: gold from two Project X pools, stocks from HyperCore spot.
the 24h column is the deep xyz market, which a page can read and a contract cannot.

Back a lane

No Rush is running: the contracts are not deployed yet. When the first one opens, this is where you pick a lane and put HYPE behind it. Backing is open for the first 2 hours of a round and pays out the moment it settles.

How a Rush runs

Open2 hours of backing
Run24 hours, sampled every 20 min
Snapshotmedian of the open phase samples
Finishmedian of the last 6 samples
Rake5% of the pot
Pot cap500 HYPE

Sampling is permissionless and every sample records all four lanes at once, so nobody chooses what gets snapshotted. A lane whose price never moves did not race and is excluded; a tie goes to gold.

Where the rake goes

Buys gold, into the vault70%
Buys $RUSH and burns it20%
Operator10%

The vault has no owner and no sweep. Burning $RUSH redeems a pro rata share of the gold it holds and of the HYPE it has not converted yet, so nothing can be stranded by nobody showing up.

Why the median

The tokenized equity books on HyperCore are thin: over seven days GLD printed 2.72 units and QQQ 2.16. One reading of a book like that is worth nothing, so a Rush never reads a price once. To move a median you have to hold a false price across most of a day's samples, and anyone who stands to lose can print the true one back for a few dollars.

Why gold is priced on the EVM

Because HyperCore's own gold market is the stalest of the lot. The benchmark is read from XAUt0 against WHYPE and USDT0 against WHYPE on Project X, both as half hour TWAPs, divided so the HYPE cancels out. What comes out is dollars an ounce, arbitraged continuously, on the same scale as the stocks.

If nobody reads it right

The pot is not paid to anyone and it is not raked either: the whole thing rolls into the next Rush. A round nobody won makes the following one worth more.

What is true today

The contracts are written and tested, twenty three tests with ten of them against the live chain, and nothing is deployed yet. The board above is not a mock: it is the same two price sources the protocol will settle on, read from the chain right now.
