# PonziLand

> Get rugged

PonziLand lets you buy and manage virtual land with any ERC-20 token in a fully on-chain economic simulation.

PonziLand is a blockchain game where players compete in economic battles over virtual land. Players buy plots, set selling prices, and place tax deposits. Each block, taxes are collected and distributed to neighbors, challenging players to price land correctly. Too high a price risks stagnation, too low means quick turnover with minimal profit. Features include land upgrades, auctions, and a nuke mechanism to reset inactive plots.

## Products

- [PonziLand](https://thegrid.id/profiles/ponzi_land): A fully on-chain implementation of a land ownership system using DeFi mechanics. Players buy, sell, and collect taxes from neighboring land, creating a dynamic economic simulation. The system supports any ERC-20 token through a token-agnostic design, allowing players to use different tokens for land purchases and staking. (Game, Live, Main Product)

## Assets

- [Land NFT](https://thegrid.id/profiles/ponzi_land): Land NFT is an NFT representing virtual land plots in PonziLand's economic game on Starknet. It is used to earn taxes from neighboring land plots, with players paying daily taxes based on their land's price and receiving taxes in the tokens their neighbors use. Players must maintain sufficient stake to avoid having their land forcefully removed through the "nuke" mechanism. (NFT)
