Another week of the Idena Twitter Raffle has passed. See the winners below. We would like to thank all the participants for spreading the word about Idena!

To participate in the third week of the raffle, you need to follow these simple rules:

  1. Follow @IdenaNetwork on Twitter.
  2. Reply to somebody’s tweet with a comment tagging @IdenaNetwork and telling about the project. You may also tweet and tag Idena and someone who could be interested in learning about it.
  3. You may send as many tweets as you want. Each tweet should be unique and have a message about Idena.
  4. 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 24, 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.

This week’s task was to tag @IdenaNetwork and someone else who could be interested in learning about Idena. We checked all the tweets with #IdenaRaffle hashtag and added to the raffle those posts and comments which we appreciate for their effort to promote Idena.

Congrats! Please send your Idena wallet address in a personal message to @IdenaNetwork on Twitter to receive your 100 DNA prize. And take part in the Idena validation tomorrow to receive additional 100 DNA if your account is validated.

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 we choose winners

1. We take the first Idena block mined after 12:30 UTC on the day of choosing winners.

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.

5. In case of collision (the same winner is selected twice) we take the first 2 bytes of the block’s hash and multiply it by 2, 3, 4 and etc. until collision is resolved.
