# Packs, SP & Progression

Progression in this **Solana play-to-earn game** runs through **Store Points (SP)**, packs, room unlocks, and better gear. This page maps the economy of the **crypto mining simulator** beyond raw mining.

## What is SP?

**SP (Store Points)** is the store pricing unit (about **1 SP ≈ $0.01** in design terms). Use SP to:

* Open packs
* Unlock larger mining rooms
* Buy certain store items / consumables

You can purchase SP using **$COMPUTE** in the Store at the **live conversion rate** (market-cap ladder / TWAP — the rate moves with the market). Do not assume a fixed COMPUTE-per-SP number.

## Pack types

Pack catalogs include groups such as:

* Basic / Premium / Elite ladders
* Promo & bundle packs
* Free / welcome packs (after hold requirements)
* **Happy Hour** specialty packs

Each pack lists contents, odds, and guarantees in-game. Open packs from the Store, then deploy loot into rooms.

### Happy Hour

Weekly limited window: **Wednesday 6:00 PM – midnight UK**. Specialty packs, limited stock — plan SP ahead if you care about those rotations.

## Welcome packs

New accounts that hold the required **100,000 $COMPUTE** on-chain can unlock welcome packs. Pending mining does not count toward the hold.

## The 500 SP earning gate

Spending a cumulative **500 SP** on packs, rooms, or eligible purchases unlocks **full earning power**. Early progression should mix:

1. Hold $COMPUTE
2. Build an operational rig
3. Spend toward the 500 SP gate
4. Reinvest into GPUs / rooms

## Progression routes

| Path               | How it works                                                    |
| ------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Mining flywheel    | Earn $COMPUTE → buy SP → open packs → more hash → more $COMPUTE |
| Marketplace        | Sell duplicates / buy missing upgrades in $COMPUTE              |
| Holder rewards     | Eligible balances earn hourly SP with streaks                   |
| Social / X rewards | Reward points; weekly boosts for consistent posting             |
| Rig Wars           | Convert battle entry into SP prizes if you win                  |

## Free-to-progress vs paid pace

You can start with a free account and advance through mining + careful trading. Pack purchases and room unlocks accelerate the **crypto mining simulator** curve. Neither path guarantees profit in $COMPUTE — especially when the token trades as a **low market cap P2E coin**.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://rig-rooms.gitbook.io/rig-rooms-docs/game-systems/packs-sp-and-progression.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
