Fishing-Mining Mechanics

Fishing = Mining: The Proof-of-Catch Mechanic

In Fish Bit, we don’t mine — we fish. But under the hood, it’s the same beast: every rod and boat combo acts like a virtual mining rig, constantly working to generate off-chain token yield. The more gear you’ve got, and the better its stats, the faster and bigger your farm gets.

The engine behind it all? Virtual hashrate: a powerful off-chain stat that scales with your equipment. Your total hashrate determines how often you catch fish (reward tokens), how lucky your pulls are, and where you land on the leaderboard.

Key Mechanics

🚢 Boat = Base Activation

• You need a boat to start fishing.

• Each account gets 1 free boat in Voyage Alpha (via X connect)

• Boats become purchasable post-mainnet.

---

🎣 Rod = Hashrate Multiplier

• Every rod adds hashpower to your fishing operation

• Stats breakdown:

  • Speed – how frequently fish ( reward tokens) are generated

  • Luck – higher chance to catch big-value fish

  • Hashrate – overall power that determines leaderboard rank & earnings

You can stack rods. Paid rods have higher stats and scale your hashrate fast.

🧯 Yield Formula (Simplified):

$$\text{Total Hashrate} = \sum (\text{Rod Hashrate} \times \text{Quantity})$$

Your rewards = function of your total hashrate versus global hashrate pool.

Just like GPU rigs in Bitcoin mining, your rods have “stats” that simulate mining power. But instead of crunching numbers, you’re casting lines with pixel-style.
