The Revenue tokenization platform on Base blockchain recently added gamified pools where traders compete for prizes.
What's Happening on Pool.fans
Pool.fans has launched Engagement Pools, a new feature that turns token trading into competitive games with real money prizes. Early users report explosive social growth, with one Farcaster user gaining twice as many followers in half a day after creating their first pool.
The platform, built by Nodar Janashia who previously co-founded Zapper.fi, lets anyone turn their Clanker token trading fees into sellable assets. Think of it like this: if your token makes $1,000 a day from people trading it, you can now sell pieces of that future income to investors right away instead of waiting months for the money to pile up.
How Engagement Pools Work
The new competition feature works like a trading tournament:
- Someone creates a pool with prize money and sets how long the competition runs
- Players earn entry tickets by following social media accounts or sharing posts
- Everyone trades the same token trying to make the biggest profit
- Winners get paid automatically based on public leaderboards that anyone can verify on the blockchain
Players love it because they can win real money. Token creators love it because it gets people talking about and trading their tokens. The viral social sharing happens naturally as competitors want to show off their rankings.
The Money Side: Fee Tokens Explained
Here's the basic idea: when someone creates a Clanker token, people pay small fees every time they trade it. Pool.fans lets the token creator turn those fees into 100 "Fee Tokens." Each Fee Token equals 1% of all future trading fees.
If you own 10 Fee Tokens, you get 10% of all the fees that token generates forever. You can claim your share anytime through the Pool.fans website.
Real numbers from their calculator show that owning 1 Fee Token from a popular token could earn you:
- About $6 to $8 every day
- Around $2,300 to $2,900 per year
These numbers assume the token keeps its current trading volume, which may go up or down.
The $FANS Token
Pool.fans has its own token called $FANS. When you stake (lock up) $FANS tokens, you earn a small piece of fees from every single token using Pool.fans. It's like owning a tiny slice of hundreds of different income streams at once.
The team kept zero tokens for themselves. Everything went to:
