💾In-House Software

Our guild has developed and deployed in-house software tools to advance our mission within the Cardano ecosystem and beyond. These tools are integral to our operations, enabling us to efficiently manage our resources, facilitate decentralized governance, and enhance member collaboration. Below, we provide an overview of each software component, outlining its purpose and key features.

1. Armory Platform

Purpose

Knights of Cornucopias Armory Platform Overview The Knights of Cornucopias staking platform, developed by Anvil using their advanced multi-sig staking engine, serves as a cornerstone for the Knights guild's asset management. This robust platform is designed to streamline and enhance the way rewards are distributed within the guild, ensuring efficiency and transparency.

Core Functionality

Custom Features for the Knights Guild: The platform allows for the automatic distribution of player rewards from the game directly to end recipients. This seamless integration ensures that tokens earned by the guild are deposited into a wallet associated with a specific policy ID, which is then distributed to all users who have that policy ID staked.

Unified Reward System

The platform's unique features enable the guild to reward all in-game activities through a single, unified system. This simplifies the management and distribution of rewards, making it easier to ensure that every member of the guild receives their due share.

Future Potential

The Knights staking platform is not just a solution for the present but a foundation for future expansions. The guild plans to leverage this platform to manage land holdings, land rewards, and other in-game assets. Future integrations with the Cornucopias API will further enhance the platform by allowing for automated stat tracking and direct deposit of rewards into in-game wallets, creating a fully integrated and automated experience for the Knights guild members.

FAQ

Do my NFTs leave my wallet? The NFTs remain in your wallet but are locked in a smart contract that is tied to the stake key of the wallet from which the NFTs were staked.

Is there a minimum time I am held in the contract? No, you can unstake at any time you choose. When you unstake any unclaimed harvest and the previously staked NFTs will automatically move to that wallet.

How is the harvest divided? Each separate policy harvest is divided equally between staked NFT.

Do I still get my harvest if I don't stake on the Armory? NO.

If I unstake, do I lose my harvest? It will automatically be claimed into your wallet.

The Cardano transaction fees go towards operating the blockchain and rewarding pool operators. 1.2 Ada from staking 1.2 ADA from Harvesting and 1.2 ADA from unstaking go to Anvil for operating and maintaining the site. 1.8 ADA from staking, 1.2 ADA from Harvesting, and 1.2 ADA from un staking go to the Knights Guild, which funds upgrades, new features for the ARMORY, and further technical needs of the guild.

There will be an additional fee for adding to and removing from stake, and unstaking and harvesting fees will still apply. The fees for these features are not yet set and are still in development.

Will Cardano chain change its fees?

Cardano may update its fees at some point. Blockchain networks, including Cardano, can adjust transaction fees based on network conditions, changes in protocol, or other factors.

Why is the transaction amount higher than the fees?

On Cardano, NFTs have ADA locked to them, so the more NFTs in one stake, the higher the ADA amount involved in the transaction. This ADA is locked with your NFTs and will be returned to your wallet if you ever unstake the NFTs.

Is it better to have all my assets mixed in one stake or separate the stakes by asset type? Shield/sword/and so on How you manage your stakes depends on your staking strategies and how you choose to keep a record of your earnings.
