How to Play

GlobalPVP is a game of strategy, timing, and conviction. Here's everything you need to know to jump in.

Step 1: Connect Your Wallet

Visit the GlobalPVP app and connect a wallet that supports Base (Ethereum L2). You'll need ETH on Base to buy tokens and pay gas fees.

Supported wallets include MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Rainbow, and any WalletConnect-compatible wallet.

Step 2: Buy Country Tokens

Browse the interactive world map. Click any country to see its current price, market cap, and trading interface. Enter the amount of ETH you want to spend and click Buy.

Your ETH is swapped for country tokens through Uniswap V4. A small fee (1-5%) is taken on each trade.

What to consider when buying:

  • Countries with lower market caps are cheaper but riskier — they could be nuked
  • Countries with higher market caps are more expensive but safer — they're more likely to be the vote winner
  • Early buyers get more tokens per ETH due to the bonding curve shape

Step 3: Watch the Countdown

After the game starts, a 4-hour countdown begins. During this time, players trade freely, building up market caps for their chosen countries.

The countdown is visible at the top of the screen. When it reaches zero, voting begins.

Step 4: The Vote

When the countdown expires, anyone can trigger the vote. The country with the highest market cap at that moment becomes the vote winner.

Only holders of the winning country's token can vote. Voting power equals the number of winner tokens you hold.

You have 5 minutes to vote. Choose which country you want to nuke — but you cannot vote for your own winning country.

tip

If no votes are cast, a random country is selected for elimination. Always vote to control the outcome.

Step 5: The Nuke

After voting ends, anyone can execute the nuke. The country with the most votes is destroyed:

  1. All liquidity is removed from the nuked country's Uniswap pool
  2. The recovered ETH is redistributed:
    • 40% buyback into the vote-winning country
    • 40% buyback into a random surviving country
    • 10% buyback into another random surviving country
    • 10% to the protocol treasury
  3. The nuked country's token can no longer be traded

The buybacks immediately pump the receiving countries' prices, creating profit opportunities.

Step 6: Repeat

A new 4-hour countdown begins. The game continues until only one country remains — the ultimate winner.

Quick Strategy Tips

  • Diversify early — Hold tokens across several countries to hedge against elimination
  • Stack the winner — If you think a country will have the highest market cap, buy in early to gain voting power
  • Vote strategically — Don't always nuke the weakest country. Sometimes eliminating a rival's secondary holding is smarter
  • Watch the buybacks — After a nuke, three countries receive large ETH buybacks. If you're holding one of them, you'll see a price pump
  • Sell timing matters — There's a 20% sell fee during the voting window, and up to 90% sell fee right after buybacks (anti-snipe protection). Plan accordingly.
