FAQ

Short answers to the usual questions.

Can I choose the exact block?

You choose a window and the contract enforces it. How close to the first block you land depends on the keepers; Cuckoo pays them more the closer they get.

Do I need fast hardware?

No. Keepers carry the egg. You only sign it.

What if nobody carries my egg?

Nothing is spent. It expires after notAfter and your escrow stays yours.

What does it cost?

The reward you set (paid only if an egg lands) plus the call's own cost. No fee to anyone.

Who can see my egg?

Whoever holds it. Give it to a keeper you trust or run your own.

Why Robinhood Chain?

Blocks are a tenth of a second apart, so "which block" matters a lot there. The contract also works where ArbSys is absent, using block.number.

Is the $CUCKOO coin used by the contract?

No. See the token page.

Can a keeper steal from my escrow?

It can only be paid up to the maxReward you signed, and only when an egg lands in its window.
