Discover Crystal Caves In the Crystal Caves, players navigate through cave environments, mining blocks to uncover valuable resources. Mining occurs directly on your device and is validated on-chain through smart contract transactions, ensuring transparency and security. Your goal is to mine as many valuable blocks as possible to earn USDC, Lumens, and Points.
User Interface
In the screenshot above, the labelled areas are explained below:
Mining Site Stats: Displays key statistics about the current mining site, including:
Current Level (starting 0).
Total blocks mined out of the available total at the current Level (e.g., 22/100,000).
The remaining amount in the weekly USDC reward pool (e.g., 140.2 USDC remaining to be claimed this week).
Rewards Chest: Shows the current mined blocks, which can be rolled up into a single transaction on the blockchain.
Note: The chest can be opened only after the transaction completes.
Locate Player: Centers the camera on your player, useful if you've moved the view away and want to quickly return to your location.
Map: Access the cave map to navigate and explore.
Energy Stats: Displays your remaining energy (e.g., 989/1000). Each block mined consumes 1 energy, which refreshes every 24 hours.
Help & Settings:
Help opens this Player’s Guide.
Settings allows you to customize graphics and audio preferences.
Block Information: Displays details of the selected block, including potential rewards and properties.
Mine Button: Initiates the mining process for the selected block. It typically takes 6-12 seconds to mine a block.
Total Rewards: This shows the total rewards you have earned so far.
Game Rules
Exploration and Mining: Move through the cave, select blocks, and press the Mine button to extract resources.
Defogging Mechanism: Defogging is a process that reveals the properties of a block. Only defogged blocks can be mined.
Adjacent Block Mining: You can only mine blocks adjacent to your player. If a block is not adjacent, the Mine button will be greyed out and disabled.
Level Progression: Each level consists of a 10x10 area of blocks (totaling 100 blocks). Once you have mined all the blocks in a level, a new cave level will be generated. Each level is private, allowing you to mine freely without interference from other players.
Reward Accumulation: The more blocks you mine, the more rewards you accumulate! Detailed information about rewards can be found in the reward allocation section.
Kickstart your Crystal Caves mining adventure and unlock exciting rewards by following these steps!
Step 1. BaseAI Summit Cave
Head over to the Crystal Caves website and log in using your WORLD3 account (if you haven't already). Make sure you're logged in with the account that holds your Helmet, as it is required to participate in mining activities.
Click on BaseAI Summit Cave to begin your treasure-hunting journey and explore valuable resources!
On the mining site screen, you’ll find:
(1) Mining Site Name and Selected Chain (e.g., Base Mainnet)
(2) Public Information about the mining site, with details on site attributes and current conditions
(3) Accumulated Block Statistics showing mined blocks and other progress indicators
(4) Go Mining button
After reviewing the site information, click Go Mining to begin your adventure.
Step 2. Mining Blocks in Crystal Caves
In Crystal Caves, players can explore the cave environment, mine blocks, and uncover valuable rewards like USDC, Lumens, and Points. The mining process takes place on your device and is verified on-chain, ensuring secure and transparent gameplay.
How to Mine Blocks
To start mining, follow these steps:
Choose an adjacent block and click the Mine button. Alternatively, you can double-click any adjacent block to mine it directly.
Players can mine up to 10 blocks at a time. After 10 blocks, a roll-up transaction syncs the data on-chain and distributes rewards.
Energy available (max 1000 blocks every 24 hours) is displayed at the bottom left corner for tracking.
When you’ve mined 10 blocks, the Chest turns golden and displays "MAX," indicating it’s full. Click Roll Up to sync your progress, then Confirm the transaction in your wallet.
3. Once confirmed, a Rewards modal will pop up displaying all rewards from the roll-up. Click "OK" to continue. Check the Reward Distribution section in this guide for more details on rewards.
Repeat this process as much as possible. The more blocks you mine, the more rewards you earn!
Step 3: Withdraw Your USDC Rewards
If you have earned USDC rewards during the mining process, you will need to withdraw them manually. Click on the "?" next to the reward to verify the amount and withdraw your rewards.
Your local client (browser) might have temporarily lost sync with the blockchain. To fix this, we've added a feature to reset your local data without affecting your rewards—they’ll remain safely stored in the system.
Here's How to Fix It:
Click the Settings icon in the top right corner.
Select RESET and then confirm.
That’s it! You’re back on track.
We’re committed to continually improving your experience, and your feedback makes that possible. Thank you for helping us shape the future of Crystal Caves!

This will directly open the QUEST task assistant within the game, allowing you to access and complete tasks for the WORLD3 BaseAI Summit event without switching to a separate window.
Invite friends to complete tasks, and you'll receive additional Lumen rewards when your friends complete specific tasks. Click on "Referral" in the task to access the referral system.
Share the unique link with friends to invite them to participate in this campaign.
Invited users, upon opening the invitation link and logging into their accounts, need to click the "Accept" button.
Upon accepting the invitation, the invited users will be added to the inviter's "Invited friends" list. The inviter's panel Mission Status will display as "Unfinished."
Invited users need to complete the "Embark on the Base Network Mining" task to be considered a successful referral.
After the invited user completes the mission, the invitee will receive a reward of 10 Lumens, and the inviter will receive a reward of 20 Lumens. At this point, the Referral relationship is successfully established.
Check the "Invited friends" section to view friends who have accepted the invitation and the status of their beginner tasks.
For each Lumens reward mined by the successfully referred user in the BaseAI Summit Cave, the inviter will receive a 10% Lumens bonus, rounded up to the nearest whole number.
Display a detailed breakdown of each reward earned within the "Total rewards earned" list.
Check your ranking for rewards earned through referrals within the "Referral rewards ranking" section.
When "Embark on the Base Network Mining" is incomplete, it will display a "Pending" icon.
If a user successfully accepts an invitation from someone else, the Mission will display as follows.
If a user does not accept an invitation from someone else and completes the Mission, it will be displayed as follows:
Invitation Relationship Establishment
To successfully invite a user, Bob needs to first accept Alice's invitation popup and then complete the Mission "Embark on the Base Network Mining" to establish the referral relationship. Without this, the invitation process cannot be completed.
Other Details
Users cannot invite each other back and forth. For example, as Bob being invited by Alice, Bob cannot then invite Alice.
Players can only accept a Referral invitation once.
Typically, players can invite up to 100 users.
Invitation Relationship Establishment Reward: For every successful establishment of an invitation relationship, the invitee will receive a reward of 10 Lumens, and the inviter will receive a reward of 20 Lumens. For example: If Bob clicks the "Accept" button on the invitation popup sent by Alice and completes "Embark on the Base Network Mining," Bob will receive 10 Lumens, and Alice will receive 20 Lumens.
BaseAI Summit Cave Mining Rewards: Invited users who have successfully established an invitation relationship will bring a Lumens reward from each mining activity in BaseAI Summit Cave that will be 10% of the Lumens earned for the inviter, rounded up. For instance, if Bob earns 3 Lumens and 13 Lumens in mining activities, 10% of these amounts would be 0.3 Lumens and 1.3 Lumens, respectively. When rounded up, Alice will receive 1 Lumens and 2 Lumens as rewards for Bob's mining activities.
