The Idena team would like to award an extra prize of 100 DNA to @_shadow_crypto for numerous high quality tweets about Idena this week.

Congrats to the winners! Please send your Idena wallet address in a personal message to @IdenaNetwork on Twitter to receive your 100 DNA prize. You will receive additional 100 DNA if your account is validated on July 31, 2020, so be sure not to miss the next Idena validation.

If you think that your tweet meets the raffle requirements and is not included into the list of contenders please send a message to @IdenaNetwork on Twitter and we may consider including it into the next week’s list.

How the winners were chosen

1. We take the first Idena block mined after 12:30 UTC.

2. We take the first 2 bytes of the block’s hash.

3. The resulting number is the first winner’s number in the list of contenders. As this number is larger than the number of the tweets that take part in the raffle, when we have counted to the end of the list, we begin to count again from top to bottom.

4. We wait for the second block after 12:30 UTC to be mined and repeat the procedure to determine the second winner. Thus, we repeat the calculation 10 times.

Next week challenge

General rules of the Idena Twitter Raffle remain the same, but there are some additional tasks (highlighted below).

  1. To qualify for the raffle, you must be the follower of @IdenaNetwork on Twitter.
  2. Tweet about Idena tagging @IdenaNetwork and also someone who, as far as you know, is not with Idena yet but could be interested in learning about it. Add a special hashtag: #IdenaRaffle. You may send as many tweets as you want. Each tweet should be unique and have a message about Idena.
  3. The Idena team will randomly draw 10 winners among all the qualifying tweets of the week. The results of this week will be published in the Idena Twitter account on Friday, July 17, 2020.

Those winners who will have their accounts validated on July 31, 2020 (the checking time is 14:30 UTC) will receive additional 100 DNA each. Please note: The Idena team will consider only the wallet addresses the winners have provided initially, there won’t be an opportunity to submit another address for checking its validation.

Let the new week of the Idena Twitter Raffle begin!
