DarkStar_ has transferred the BTC from a different wallet to my above mentioned address as he don't have access to the older raffle wallet at the moment.

I am not worried about the delay. Please take your time. I fully understand the current situation of the bitcoin network and the crazy high fees. Many thanks everyone!

0.001BTC has been sent over to avikz and here is the tx hash : 646c536ef5b8a7b2babc420a59a5bdb2fe51930faa4c8932dc55301c94962a5a

The next #11 raffle will start in a couple of hours. Good Luck everyone  Smiley

I was excluded from participating in my first raffle.
From the next raffle, we will be hard coding a new rule i.e anyone who is participating in the raffle should have made contributions to the board recently. Through this, we will be able to reward only the active posters of the board and not the ones who were inactive.

I was excluded from participating in my first raffle. I understand at that time my contribution here was next to zero. Considering my present activity and what @pakitheboss and @elevates agreed on I have no issues. I would be happy if you take the complete responsibility now. I am confident that you would hold on to those funds. Never seen anyone now days betraying a fellow Indian unless it is a scammer. I do understand trust numbers and you are on the top it shows.

Thanks.

An update regarding the future of prize distributions : DarkStar_ will not be really active in the forum, so the remaining balance will be transferred to my address so that I can handle the prize distributions from now on.

There will be a movement of BTC from DarkStar_'s 31ndia1cACc51Ge4hGdtPjgt5HfxQR4oj8 address to my bc1qdlpx2uzu57h0vq26z0er45msv7wzkf4rwzm7hk address.

As discussed earlier, I will request DarkStar_ to hold the 0.0012BTC as a goodwill towards his huge help in escrowing the funds for 3+ years.

What can you do in this situation? DarkStar_ has be holding those funds for a long time now. If he wants to take a break then it is better you hold on to those funds. I personally do not have any qualm about it. I don't think anyone here would have an issue as you have been conducting the raffle without any personal gain. You did this out of your own interest to keep the Indian board active. Considering your reputation and your commitment over the years I am happy if you hold those funds.

I don't think anyone here would object about it as DarkStar_ would not be active in the forum. You have been organizing and handling the raffle for quite sometime now. I have been part of quite a few raffle and I have not felt or read about any issues to date. I believe the funds would be safe and secure with you. Hoping for the next raffle to launch soon.

Congratulations @avikz for winning the raffle. The only problem is that the Bitcoin network is congested & it would take a significant amount as fee to transfer those Satoshi.

With ordinals clogging up the network and mempool hitting an ATH of 400k pending transactions, usage of legacy addresses has been deprecated from this raffle. Anyone who has provided legacy addresses should change their addresses to bech32.

if it continues like this..

we'd have to provide paytm or upi for the next raffle..  Shocked Shocked

My reason for saying it, is not because I was not given an opportunity.
I think your contribution to the board in the past few days have been remarkable and the posts were really interesting for generating a discussion too. But, since your second post was in the raffle I am unable to include you this time.
Going by the contribution of Bureau so far, I guess, he/she can be allowed to participate in this raffle. Rest is your call.


OP i was curious what was the wining BTC amount for the first raffle held?
1BTC?
No.

The very first game was price prediction. Winner got BTC 0.002211 for this - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annspeculation-game-10th-anniversary-indian-forum-celebration-win-0002211btc-5198960.

For the first raffle, winner received BTC 0.001 - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/great-indian-raffle-1-game-on-until-bitcoin-in-escrow-lasts-win-0001-btc-5214068.

Unfortunately at the moment, @RedPrince is not allowed to participate in the raffle since they have been inactive for quite a long time and they haven't made any significant contribution to the board.

why delay & wait for others to join? Why not genrate the outcome within a deadline. Time constraints freebies are always good to create online traffic. Next is to post this thread link on games & rounds child board. It will surely get us more traffic.
When we create a deadline, spots won't be filled up. This has happened in the past. This raffle is specifically created for Indian board members and if we create a thread in Games & Rounds, other country members would abuse them and this has also happened in the past.

One last thing needs to be added as a rule on this ANN is that "anyone who wants to participate in this raffle must have create 5 intersting on the main Indian local board with minimum 2 Merits on that topic".
If we create a meaningful topic or post, then I think that is suffice and the rule has been present since Raffle #1. Obviously if the post is good, it would receive merits  Smiley

There are three spots left but I don't think they will be occupied any time soon. My reason for saying it, is not because I was not given an opportunity.

I am brand new on this forum. Am I allowed to participate in this raffle. I am might have missed out something. Still I wanted to ask this question.
Inam assuming that I a okay to participate in this raffle as @Heisenberg_Hunter did not respond. I am participating in this raffle. I would chose the alphabet "c". I will update my Bitcoin address if I win. Thanks.

Hello Bureau,

Welcome to this forum. Unfortunately you are not allowed to participate this time as you haven't made any meaningful posts so far in the Indian sub and on top of that, you are a brand new account with just a second post in this topic. As you start contributing for the betterment of this board, you can participate in the next month raffle  Smiley

I think, enforcing SegWit was a good idea and you could have implemented it this time.
LoL, it is quite funny to know that people are still using legacy addresses even though majority has stopped using that. Let's implement the rule in the next raffle  Smiley

I am picking 7
7 has already been chosen by @raybucks. Please pick any other spot



Spots has been updated till @pakhitheboss post. We still have 4 more spots left before we choose a block!

My proposition is if I win, distribute the winning amount to everyone who took part in this raffle proportionately.

Hey everyone, If possible please try to provide a segwit bitcoin address (starting with bc1 or 3) instead of Legacy addresses starting with 1. It will help us in saving unnecessary fees and we can help the network by occupying less space in the block. From next raffle onwards segwit bitcoin address will be made mandatory and if you don't have a segwit address, try to install Electrum and provide one. We should minimize the usage of Legacy addresses as much as possible.
I think, enforcing SegWit was a good idea and you could have implemented it this time.

As this is the first time for me I would go for my lucky number 9. If I win then I am going to give a party to a few laborers who are working hard near my locality. Indeed I would also share those images on our local board.

That's kind of you @elevates.

This may be the last Raffle but it was again a unique initiative from you to get this board active. Hopefully, it will again become active as it used to be in the past.
I would like to update that with the sudden huge increase in prices of BTC, I have decided to split the raffle into three with the first two raffle winners receiving 0.001BTC each similar to how the previous raffles functioned and the third and final winner receiving 0.00107499BTC. As discussed already in this thread, the remaining 0.0012BTC will be left as it is in the wallet for @DarkStar_ towards his huge help in escrowing the funds for 3+ years.

Last Raffle started on January 03, 2021 and ended on February 03, 2021. So, 6 month is over for all the previous winners. Hence, I guess, the raffle is now open to all the previous winners again. Right?

I think it is self-explanatory. This raffle is open to all the previous winners.

2. This raffle winner cannot participate in the upcoming games for 6 months. Let us give others a chance to win some bitcoins. You can consider this 6 months as a cooling period like if some X has won the game in April, they can participate only in the November raffle. Our local community is so small such that I have reduced the period to 6 months. If in future, we rise up to one of the most populated local boards I might change the rule such that the game winners cannot participate in the upcoming lotteries for over a year.

I'll go for "b" this time. As in "b" for bitcoin.

May be this is the last raffle or may be not but it's good to see someone taking the initiative like this for the sake of community.
Let's hope with this we see some traction in the board again.

@Heisenburg_Hunter you should tag all the Indian members so that they are aware of this post.

THE REVIVAL RAFFLE #10


"A decentralized digital currency is a pathway to many abilities, our government considered it to be unnatural."
Quotes from a galaxy far, far away...

OK, it's been a while and we never had these great games running to encourage our beautiful community.

Now, as a token of appreciation to all the Indian forum members who are making this board a delightful place to stay even during the adverse Bitcoin conditions prevailing in India, we will continue running these raffles in terms of monthly events. As of today, the price of 1BTC is around $28,000 ~ ₹23,00,000 per bitcoin  and the winner would be receiving ₹2,300.

About the Game :

1. This is a pretty simple and quite interesting game, where there would be 16 spots from 0-9 and a-f. Each person should pick one character and post in the reply of this topic along with their bitcoin address.

2. Once all the 16 spots are filled, I will choose one single future block to be mined. For instance person X has chosen '8' as their spot and I have chosen block #782,997. Here the hash of the block #782,997 is 00000000000000000004cade9ff90e7ec9c31e4bf0475a1793387a5a06d9ea88 which determines that 8 is the winning character.

3. The person who has chosen the correct character wins the prize amount of 0.001BTC (Please note that 0.001BTC is no more cheaper but in terms of our economy it costs around ₹2,300)

As per rules, they are mostly the same as followed in the previous raffle topics

Rules :

1. The game is strictly restricted only to Indian forum members. If you are someone outside India or hailing from nearby countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan or Sri Lanka, you are not allowed to participate in this game.

2. This raffle winner cannot participate in the upcoming games for 6 months. Let us give others a chance to win some bitcoins. You can consider this 6 months as a cooling period like if some X has won the game in April, they can participate only in the November raffle. Our local community is so small such that I have reduced the period to 6 months. If in future, we rise up to one of the most populated local boards I might change the rule such that the game winners cannot participate in the upcoming lotteries for over a year.

3. There are 16 spots and only 1 slot per person is allowed and more importantly I cannot give you any random spots. Once I have updated the slot in OP, there is no changing of slot numbers. Please see to the filled spots in OP/ have an eye on picked up spots by others before posting your slot number in reply.

4. Newbies are allowed to participate, but you shouldn't have made your first post in this topic and You might have been a old guy but isn't really an active poster.

5. This topic is only for playing the game and all the other discussions and doubts regarding the raffle or future game ideas should be posted only in the Indian Raffle Discussion topic.

6. Bounty Hunters are not allowed to participate in the game. Even though if you are from India, the board doesn't need bounty hunters who are chiming here only for profits or earning money from this forum.
