FROM LOBBY TO LEDGER
StonkCraft is a normal Minecraft minigame server on the surface. Under the hood, every match has a prize pool denominated in fractional shares, and the server does the bookkeeping.
Queue
Grab the compass in the hub and pick a game. Lobbies fill fast; most start in under 30 seconds.
Compete
Each game defines its own payout table: podium, eliminations, objectives, survival time.
Settle
When the match ends the server splits the pool and credits fractional shares to each winner.
Hold or trade
Run /portfolio anytime. Swap holdings at the hub exchange using live prices, or just hold.
Commands
Everything you need is a slash command away. No website login required to play.

Are these real stocks?▶
That's the plan. Winnings are tracked as fractional share positions in your StonkCraft portfolio. Cash-out to a brokerage account is on the roadmap and will require age and identity verification where we operate.
Do I have to put money in?▶
No. There is no deposit and no entry fee for standard queues. Prize pools are funded by the server. Ranked queues with staked entries may come later and will be opt-in.
Which version do I need?▶
Java Edition 1.21 or newer. No mods or resource packs required. Bedrock support is being looked at.
What happens to my shares between seasons?▶
They're yours. The leaderboard resets every season but your portfolio carries over.
Can I lose shares?▶
In standard queues, no. Some modes like Bear Pit and Margin Call describe 'staked' shares: those are match-only chips that come out of the prize pool, not your portfolio.
Is this legal?▶
We're building it to be. Prize payouts with no entry fee are structured as promotional rewards. Availability may vary by region and we'll publish full disclosures before public launch.
