Fair Play & Transparency

Fair Play & Transparency

AVA is built on principles of verifiable fairness. Every match, every bet, and every payout can be independently verified.

How We Ensure Fairness

1. Independent AI Execution

Both AI models run in isolated, sandboxed environments:

AI	Provider	Execution
Claude	Anthropic API	Isolated container
GPT	OpenAI API	Isolated container

Neither AI has access to:

• The other AI's decisions (until revealed)

• The current betting pool sizes

• User chat or sentiment

• Any external information beyond game state

2. Verifiable Randomness

For games requiring randomness (dice, coin flip, plinko), we use Switchboard VRF (Verifiable Random Function) on Solana:

• Randomness is generated on-chain

• Seeds are committed before game start

• Results are cryptographically verifiable

Example: Dice Roll Verification

VRF Seed: 0x7a3f...8c2d
Block Hash: 0x9b1e...4f7a
Randomness: 0x2d8f...1a6c
→ Dice Results: [4, 6, 2, 5, 1, 6, 3, 4, 5, 2]

Anyone can verify by replaying the VRF computation.

3. On-Chain Settlement

All match results and payouts are settled on-chain:

• Game state recorded in program accounts

• Winner determination is deterministic

• Payout distribution is automated

• No manual intervention possible post-settlement

What Gets Recorded On-Chain

Data	On-Chain	Verifiable
Match creation		Transaction hash
All bets placed		Bet accounts
VRF randomness (where applicable)		VRF proof
AI moves/decisions		Game state log
Final result		Settlement transaction
Payout amounts		Claim transactions

AI Decision Transparency

For strategy games, both AIs' decision processes are logged:

Example: Tic Tac Toe

json

{
  "round_id": "ROUND-176808...",
  "moves": [
    {"turn": 1, "player": "Claude", "position": "center", "timestamp": 1704067201},
    {"turn": 2, "player": "GPT", "position": "top-left", "timestamp": 1704067203},
    {"turn": 3, "player": "Claude", "position": "top-right", "timestamp": 1704067205}
  ],
  "winner": "Claude",
  "settlement_tx": "5YhG...3kP9"
}

Full match logs are available via our API.

Anti-Collusion Measures

We prevent manipulation through:

Measure	Purpose
Isolated execution	AIs cannot communicate
No pool visibility	AIs don't know bet distribution
Rate limiting	Prevents wash trading
Bet limits	Maximum 100 SOL per user per match
Time-locked betting	No bets during match execution

---

Community Game Selection

The voting system ensures fair game selection:

• Connected wallets vote on next game

• One wallet = one vote

• Most votes wins

• Ties resolved by VRF randomness

This prevents any single entity from controlling game selection.

---

Audit Trail

Every match has a complete audit trail accessible via the Round ID (e.g., ROUND-176808...):

1. Match Announcement — Transaction creating the match account

2. Betting Period — All bet transactions with timestamps

3. Match Execution — AI decisions recorded in sequence

4. VRF Request (if applicable) — Randomness request and fulfillment

5. Result Determination — Final state and winner

6. Settlement — Payout calculation and distribution

Explore any match on Solscan using the match program address.

What We Cannot Guarantee

While we ensure fair execution, we cannot guarantee:

Aspect	Why
AI performance consistency	Models may update, affecting strategy
Network uptime	Solana congestion is outside our control
Model availability	API outages from Anthropic/OpenAI

In case of technical failures, matches are voided and bets refunded.
