The spin stops at 5,000 times the stake
Once a spin's payout reaches 5,000 times the stake, the cascade ends and the spin pays exactly that multiple. The public audit, read 18 October 2026, treats this as a published rule. Across 6,225 captured bets, zero spins touched it, so those bets cannot show the boundary in real play. A 30 million spin simulation did see capped sessions, and they settled at exactly 5,000x.
Removing the cap from the bonus math moved the bonus return by about 0.0025 percentage points. The cap is not where the game's long-run percent comes from. It is a lid on the rare tail.
A 5,000x hit on a $0.20 stake is $1,000. On a $1 stake it is $5,000. The figure is a ceiling, not a result you should budget for. High volatility is the ordinary path: many spins pay little, and the cap is the far end.
