Aviator: how it works
Aviator is a crash game. Each round a plane takes off and a multiplier starts climbing from 1.00×. You can cash out at any moment and win your stake multiplied by whatever the number reads, but if the plane flies away first, the stake is gone. The crash point for every round is fixed before betting opens and published as a hash, so it cannot move in response to where the money went.
How to play
- Place your stake during the betting window at the start of the round.
- The plane takes off and the multiplier climbs from 1.00×.
- Press cash out at any time to lock in your stake × the current multiplier.
- If the plane flies away before you cash out, the stake is lost.
- Every round publishes its seed afterwards so you can verify the crash point.
Payouts
| Outcome | Pays | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Cash out at any multiplier | stake × multiplier | Settled at the instant you press it |
| Plane leaves before cash out | 0× | The whole stake is lost |
Return to player
Aviator returns 96.5% whichever multiplier you cash out at, so over time the platform keeps 3.5% of everything staked. That figure is exact rather than simulated: the chance of a round reaching any multiplier x is 0.96525 ÷ x, so cashing out early and holding for a big number come out the same on average.
Frequently asked questions
How is the crash point decided?
From the round’s secret server seed, published as a SHA-256 hash before betting opens. At settlement the seed is revealed, and hashing it reproduces the commitment. Proving the crash point was fixed before anyone bet.
Can the game see my bet and crash early?
No. The crash point is derived from the seed alone, and the commitment is public before the betting window opens. Nothing about your stake is an input.
What is the RTP?
Return to player is 96.5% whichever multiplier you cash out at. The chance of a round reaching any multiplier x is 0.96525 ÷ x, so x times that chance comes out the same at every target. About 3.5% of rounds end at 1.00×, and that is where the house edge lives.
Is there a winning strategy?
No. Each round is independent and every cash-out multiplier carries the same expected value. Auto-cashing at 1.5× and holding for 10× differ in volatility, not in edge.
