The altcoin of 2023 is therefore Solana. Those who put this altcoin in their predictions get a $100 bonus : xSkylarx, Yabes, jokers10, Halab, slackovic
This year's big loser is SafeMoon. UserU is therefore penalized by $100.

Already prepared it with these URLs:


The latter one translates to something like:

That's it, thanks
Until the 2024 edition of course

Sure, just changed it to Paris time 00:50 now! Any other changes required or that's it?

Can you make this +50 minutes, to account for the increased delay between scraping Coingecko?

Thanks, it's working again. Even if it's not as precise, it gives an idea of the ranking. Even if it's very close for the podium and it could be decided by the photo finish.

It looks like they're blocking my scraper when I'm half way through. I don't have time to fix it right now.

Update: as a quick test, I've increased the delay between scraping from 6 to 16 seconds. That means the scraping time is going to vary a lot per altcoin. I'll see if this works tomorrow. I don't get it though: what's the point of an api if you don't even allow someone to scrape data with a whopping 6 seconds delay between downloads?

Update: The last update worked again (it just takes more than 40 minutes now). I've wiped 4 days with incomplete data, so the graph should be okay again tomorrow (with a 4 day hole, that is).

LoyceV, since Saturday I think there is a small problem

Let's go for 2024 : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.63250842

I can't believe it's been nearly a year since contest started, how time flies.


If Radiant dropped the ball, Safemoon became AFU with the team getting arrested over fraud. Guess I can kiss goodbye clinching the top 3, let alone top 10

It's been a really thought provoking and educational event for me, so thanks to @Halab and all the collaborators for an excellent contest.

Radiant dropped the ball in the 2nd part of the year, their yield curve turned actually negative (for max looping), they need to sort out their reward incentives, so they missed out on the bullish euphoria so far...

Ronin is a robust choice, gaming will be huge in web 3, and Solana made a great comeback after SBF got sentenced and depositors got a little consolation from due justice...

Just an honest suggestion for next year, I think it would make great sense if Halab secures all the funds in advance from the voluntary sponsors in the beginning, to avoid any unnecessary drama regarding the reward structure down the line.

All the Best

The crypto world will always surprise me. It's happening, the flippening !

ETH has overtaken BTC ? No, let's be serious.
But xSkylarx has overtaken Vispilio.

You did nothing wrong, but I really don't understand his actions in last few months.

Can't wait to read it.
Your reviews are always spot on, and noticed that you were not so much active lately in forum, so you better comeback full power

oh nice ! ty, I must admit that I didn't do much research 

Let me know if there are any issues! Sorry for the radio silence in general; preparing a cool R909 review at the moment..

It looks like n0nce's graph (see OP) is still updated.

I fully support Halab's point of view 

Is there currently a way to follow each person's progress?

I understood that the things put in place, based on the APIs, weren't working too well recently (maybe I'm wrong)?

Hi everyone, I've got some news for you.

First of all, the gap between Vispilio and xSkylarx has never been smaller. And the battle for 3rd place is still uncertain.

You can start thinking about 4 alts for 2024.

Now for the not-so-good news...
For those of you following the Reputation section, there have been a few topics about Symmetrick aka Ratimov in recent weeks (I'll let you do your own research).
As a result of all this, I received a PM from Ratimov yesterday informing me that he no longer intends to honor his role as sponsor :


Nevertheless, Ratimov added that Icopress owes a small debt of 0.004 to Ratimov. And this sum would be paid to me for the winners.
So instead of what was announced by Ratimov above, there will be :

1st : 0.0030 BTC
2nd : 0.0015 BTC
3rd : 0.0005 BTC

Bonus Ratimov :
1st : 0.0025 BTC
2nd : 0.0010 BTC
3rd : 0.0005 BTC

Total :
1st : 0.0055 BTC
2nd : 0.0025 BTC
3rd : 0.0010 BTC

Sorry for the disappointment, like you I'm suffering Ratimov's decision, but it's his decision.

Any post on Ratimov's case in this topic will be reported. Go and discuss this in the Reputation section in the appropriate topics.

I remind you that the purpose of this contest is fun, not money and that why this contest is entirely free. I could have claimed Ratimov's BTC when he made his promise, but I don't want to be responsible for other people's money because I'm not infallible (loss of private keys, hack, etc...). So please don't drag me into your shitstorm.

Breaking news!

Vispillo is back under 3K, a level he hadn't reached since the beginning of february. All hopes are allowed (or not) ?
1. Vispilio: $2916.85

The 2nd place seems to be secure for xSkylarx for the time being.
2. xSkylarx: $1615.20

And the battle for the 3rd place is still undecided.
4. Inwestour: $1297.21
5. Yabes: $1234.26
6. jokers10: $1224.80
7. slackovic: $1214.20

That's how any investment works: only the day you buy and the day you sell counts.
