PIKO

This page is the hub, not an app. It doesn't ask you to log in or approve anything -- it just explains PIKO and links out to the things you can actually do: mine, or play. Each of those lives on its own separate canister below.

Mine it right in your browser -- no wallet software or CLI, just Internet Identity -- or install PikoNativeMiner, a native desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux that hashes directly on your CPU's own hardware instructions (optional GPU mining too) for a significantly higher rate than a browser tab can reach. Every accepted proof costs a small, non-refundable ICP fee: mostly burned permanently, a share converted to cycles to keep the protocol's own canisters funded. Don't want to chase a rare solo jackpot? PikoPool, built into the native miner, lets you group up with everyone else mining and split rewards proportionally instead. See the comparison and downloads below.

PIKO Dice and PikoBlackjack are companion games, each deliberately hosted on its own separate site with its own login/approval flow -- opting into betting is never bundled with mining. Both are provably fair, resolved by the Internet Computer's own on-chain randomness, giving mined PIKO somewhere to actually be spent: Dice is a simple 1% house edge roll, Blackjack is a full interactive single-deck game (Hit/Stand/Double/Split) against the same kind of on-chain-escrowed bankroll.

PikoPixel is a third companion, and a different kind of one: a shared, r/place-style pixel canvas, not a bet. Burn a small, fixed amount of PIKO to paint one cell a color of your choosing, visible to everyone in real time -- no payout, no bankroll, nothing to win back, just a permanent ICRC-1 burn and a piece of collective art.

Independent project. Mining is inspired by the publicly described "proof-of-on-chain-work" mechanics of bob.fun, but this is an original codebase, token, and brand -- not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to bob.fun or BOB in any way.
