How It Works

Patience allows you to earn $PATIENCE tokens simply by waiting. The longer you wait, the more tokens you can accumulate. However, there’s a catch—anyone can claim the accumulated $PATIENCE at any time. Once claimed, the balance is reset, and the process starts all over again. Below is a detailed explanation of how the system functions.

Patience is a lottery based system where a pot of patience fills slowly…. The irony is the least patient individual wins the pot. The pot when filled to the brim 50 patience can be filled. - @DesolvedLabs on Twitter.

Accumulating $PATIENCE

The key concept behind Patience is the gradual accumulation of tokens. Over time, the amount of claimable $PATIENCE steadily increases up to a maximum of 50 tokens. Here’s how it works:

• Initial Phase: The accumulation of tokens begins as soon as the round starts. The claimable balance increases steadily over time.

• Maximum Accumulation: Once the claimable balance reaches 50 $PATIENCE, accumulation stops. At this point, the maximum amount of tokens is available for claiming. It will not go any higher until someone claims the tokens.

Claiming $PATIENCE

While the accumulation of tokens is a passive process, claiming them is an active one. Anyone can claim the current balance of $PATIENCE at any time. When a claim occurs:

• Immediate Reset: The balance immediately resets to zero. This means that all accumulated tokens are gone, and a new round begins.

• Opportunistic Claims: Since anyone can claim the tokens, there is an element of strategy involved. Waiting too long to claim may mean that someone else claims the balance before you.

Cooldown Period

Once $PATIENCE has been claimed and the balance is reset to zero, there is a brief cooldown period before the next round of accumulation begins:

• 30-Second Cooldown: After a claim, there is a mandatory cooldown period of 30 seconds during which no new tokens can be accumulated.

• New Round Begins: Once the cooldown period ends, the next round of token accumulation starts.

Random Time to Maximum

After the cooldown period, the next round of accumulation begins. However, the time it takes for the balance to reach the maximum of 50 $PATIENCE is randomly determined:

• Random Timeframe: The system selects a random time between 1 and 12 hours for the balance to reach 50 tokens.

• Strategic Patience: The randomization adds an element of unpredictability, encouraging you to practice true patience. Will you claim early or wait for the maximum balance, risking someone else might claim it first?

Strategies for Success

The beauty of Patience lies in its simplicity, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for strategy. Whether you’re a patient observer or an opportunistic claimer, how you approach the game can influence your rewards.

• Wait and Watch: Keep track of the progress and try to claim at the optimal time. Waiting for the maximum balance can yield the highest reward, but it also increases the risk that someone else will claim before you.

• Maximize Long-Term Gains: While claiming at 50 $PATIENCE provides the most tokens per round, repeated smaller claims could also result in a larger overall total if timed correctly.

The Virtue of Patience

At its core, Patience is a test of endurance, discipline, and the ability to withstand temptation. The system rewards those who are able to wait the longest, but also introduces the constant threat of being outdone by others who may seize the moment before you do.

Patience is not just about accumulating tokens—it’s about understanding the value of time and waiting for the right moment to act. Are you patient enough to play the long game, or will you let someone else walk away with the reward?

The choice is yours, but remember: the more you wait, the more you get.
