Project Overview
Project Name: Hash Epoch Group
Token Symbol: HEST (Hash Epoch Sports Token)
Project positioning: Platform + public chain + token three axes to leverage the trillion-level guessing market
Headquarters location: United Kingdom ( global investment fund headquarters is located in the United States)
Whitepaper version: 2024.12.18 - 1.1.6 Beta
Core business architecture: three-axe model
HashEpoch Sports Platform (Web3 all-category guessing platform)
Positioning: An open Web3 competitive betting platform, targeting a larger market group than Polymarket
Key Features:
Full category coverage: from sports events, e-sports to international hot events forecasts
Cross-border operation: Create a cross-border, full-category guessing and competitive project aggregation platform
Industrial chain integration: realize the integration and incubation of the entire betting industry chain
Four major innovation mechanisms:
Hash verification mechanism: Ensure that the competition results are authentic and traceable through tamper-proof hash values
Smart contract custody: assets are automatically managed by publicly audited smart contracts, eliminating the risk of human operation
Loss compensation mechanism: When users suffer losses, the minting compensation contract can be triggered and compensation can be obtained according to the net value loss.
Behavior Reward Mechanism: Use tokens/NFT to encourage users to participate in competitions, invite, etc.
HashEpoch Sports Chain (the first public chain for prediction oracle)
Technological innovation: The industrys first oracle public chain focusing on the guessing track
Core technologies:
Hash Randomization and Verification: Leveraging Ethereum Mainnet Stability and Fairness
Encrypted dictionary system: solving the blockchain implementation problem of complex game rules
Oracle service: Provide decentralized data verification for chess, card and competitive games
Application scenarios:
Solve the algorithm lock and centralized control problems of traditional games
Provide efficient decentralized access solutions for Web2 projects and support the blockchainization of complex poker games

Token Economic Model
(Updated version) Basic information
Total supply: 10 billion HEST
Issuing protocol: ERC-20 (support cross-chain in the future)
Allocation plan (updated )
Insurance pool: 50% (5 billion) - user loss compensation and ecological stability guarantee
DEX liquidity: 10% (1 billion) - providing initial liquidity
Other liquidity: 20% (2 billion) - Ecosystem expansion and partner incentives
Team: 10% (1 billion tokens) - project development and operation
Competitive project rewards: 5% (500 million) - to encourage high-quality projects to join
Node mining: 2.5% (250 million tokens) - Network maintenance incentives
Community airdrop: 2.5% (250 million tokens) - Increased community activity
Core application scenarios
Margin pledge: The market needs to pledge 30% of the equivalent HEST as margin
Pledge loan: Pledge HEST to get 70% of the value of USDT loan
Turnover dividend: Holders of coins will receive 25% profit dividend from the platform
Public chain Gas: As the fuel token of Hash Epoch Sports Chain
Insurance claims: Loss-making users receive compensation in the form of HEST
Node verification: Participate in oracle node operation to get rewards
Deflation Mechanism
Buyback and Destruction: 25% of the platform profit is used to buy back HEST and destroy it
Public chain deflation: Part of the node staking income is used for deflation
Continuous reduction: Various mechanisms continue to reduce market circulation

Market potential analysis
Market size
Global betting market: Exceeding $500 billion by 2023
Growth trend: User scale reaches trillions
Market share target: 20% ($100 billion in turnover)
Benchmarking
Growth Catalysts
2026 World Cup: A certain business boom starting with the qualifiers in June 2025
Industry transformation: The inevitable trend of Web3 technology in the betting industry
Regulatory norms: Standardized development of the industry enhances market confidence
Profit Expectation Analysis
Numerical expectations (hypothetical scenarios )
Conservative estimate:
Assuming 5% of the global betting market share = $25 billion in annual turnover
5% platform profit margin = $1.25 billion in annual profit
25% buyback = $312.5 million in annual buybacks
Optimistic estimate:
Assuming 20% market share
Share = $100 billion in annual turnover
5% platform profit margin = $5 billion in annual profit
25% buyback = $1.25 billion in annual buybacks
Pledge margin requirements
Based on a 30% margin ratio, a $10 million margin corresponds to $3 million in HEST pledge.
As the platform scales, the demand for staking will grow exponentially
Multiple sources of income
Turnover dividend: Enjoy 25% platform profit dividend according to the weight of currency holding
Staking income: Double income from node staking and LP staking
Lending spread: interest income generated by pledged lending
Price appreciation: price increase caused by buyback and destruction
