The new LuckyBit promo (for one week):
Collector USB miners lottery
Win a collector ASIC miner by playing LuckyBit!
You can now win a laser-engraved collector’s ASICminer Blockerupter USB miner by playing LuckyBit.
This edition has been engraved with the LuckyBit logo. We only engraved very few of them, so this is definitely a rare item. They are new, functional, and will be delivered in original plastic boxes.
In this lottery, we are giving away a total prize money of 1.0 BTC:
- 1x Prize 1: 0.5 BTC and 1 collector’s miner
- 2x Prize 2: 0.1 BTC and 1 collector’s miner
- 3x Prize 3: 0.1 BTC
How to participate:
Play a valid bet on http://luckyb.it between Monday, 27/01/2014 at 15:00 and Monday 03/02/2014 at 23:59:59 to participate in the lottery. Times are UTC (as on LuckyBit).
- 6 winners are selected randomly from the list of all valid bets in a provably fair manner.
- From the list of 6 winners, the bet with the higher amount gets the better prize.
- Ties are resolved by comparing the last 4 characters of the transaction hash (higher -> better prize).
For example, if the list of winners are:
- bet amount 0.001 BTC -> Prize 3
- bet amount 0.01121 BTC -> Prize 3
- bet amount 0.01 BTC -> Prize 3
- bet amount 0.03212 BTC -> Prize 2
- bet amount 0.1 BTC -> Prize 1
- bet amount 0.04 BTC -> Prize 2
These 6 winning bets will be selected among all bets of that period, which means: If you play more, you have a better chance of winning. Of course your address(es) can be selected multiple times if you made several bets.
And if you play higher, you have a better chance of winning prize 1.
Technical info on how we select the list of winners in a provably fair manner:
- take the hash of the first block listed on blockchain.info with a timestamp after Monday 03/02/2014 (23:59:59)
- take the list of all (valid) bets between 27/01/2014 (15:00) and Monday 03/02/2014 (23:59:59)
- use the last 4 characters of this hash to retrieve a 1st bet from this list by converting it into a number and taking the modulo (for programmers: list.get(hash[:-4] % list.length) )
- use the last 4 characters of this bet's transaction id to get the next winning bet in the same manner
- repeat until 6 winning bets are found
- sort list using criteria described above
Note that you need to be able to sign a message to prove you own the selected address if you are one of the winners.
Disclaimer:
Please note that these ASIC collector’s miners are promotional gifts and are intended as a collector/souvenir. Due to the extreme increase in mining difficulty, you cannot expect to mine a substantial amount of Bitcoins with them. Nevertheless, the miners are fully functional (actually brand new) and can be used for pool- or solo-mining.
For any question or remark on the game, see our main thread here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--322158
Good luck to all!
