Glossary
Every Pixotchi term in one place, from PTS and TOD to Twins, Rocks, and the token trinity.
Quick definitions for every term you'll meet in the game and these docs.
Core stats
PTS (Points)
A plant's score. Sets leaderboard rank and its share of the ETH rewards pool. Reset to zero when rewards are claimed.
TOD (Time of Death)
A plant's countdown timer. At zero, the plant dies. Extended by items, buildings, arcade wins, and quests.
Level
Derived from PTS; gates attack eligibility and evolves the artwork (23 stages).
Stars
Currency earned by burning dead plants; spent on arcade plays.
XP
A land's lifetime activity score, earned by upgrades, trades, quests, claims, and raids.
Rocks
Daily-mission points, up to 100 per day; ranked monthly.
Streak
Consecutive UTC days with activity. Miss a day, back to zero (your best is remembered).
Tokens & rewards
SEED
The core ERC-20 currency: 20M initial supply, supply-reducing burns, and configurable buy/sell fees capped at 5% per side.
LEAF
A transferable ERC-20 used for progression: earned through staking and other rewards, burned by LEAF building upgrades, and traded in the in-game Marketplace.
PIXOTCHI
The Zora creator coin used for speed-ups, casino, troops, and batch fees. 1B totalSupply at the September 2026 snapshot; dead-address balances remain included.
JESSE
External Base token used to mint the TYJ strain and bet at the casino.
CRYPTICPOET
External Base community token accepted at the casino tables.
ETH rewards pool
The pot funded by 2% of SEED trading volume, distributed continuously to plants pro-rata by PTS.
Claiming
Withdrawing a plant's accrued ETH. Pays out in full and resets that plant's PTS to zero.
Burn
Removing tokens from usable supply, either by a contract burn that reduces totalSupply or a transfer to an inaccessible address. These affect totalSupply differently.
Fair launch
A launch described as making tokens publicly available without a reserved team or private allocation. Verify allocation claims against the project’s distribution records.
Plant life
Strain
A plant family (Flora, Taki, Rosa, Zest, TYJ) with its own art, price, and supply cap.
Elements / Care items
Consumable Garden shop items that add PTS, TOD, or both to a living plant. The 12-item catalogue includes Raincloud, Everdew, and Superbloom, with four items in each group. See Care Items for prices and effects.
Fence
The defense item: blocks all incoming attacks while active (50 SEED per day, up to 30 days).
Revive
Bringing a dead plant back for 5 SEED. Fresh 24h timer, PTS kept.
Kill / Burn
Destroying someone's dead plant for a star. The victim's ETH auto-pays out to them.
