@ Thinking Out Loud
2023-08-13 00:03:31A community of crypto enthusiasts excited about the upcoming launch of a new crypto exchange decided to run a competition to celebrate the lead up to the big day.
The concept was fairly simple, put up a prize of 25,000 X7R tokens (currently worth about $1,000) for the last person to buy X7R tokens if more then an hour had passed since the last purchase. Every time somebody buys X7R tokens, the clock is set back to zero and starts ticking towards that hour mark again.
There were lots of laughs and friendly ribbing as community members made purchases just before the hour was up to deny one their friends the prize. The hours slowly ticked by as the word began to spread that the prize was worth about USD$1,000 and that bought in a whole new wave of players.
Now some of these community members were a tad bit competitive and the hours turned into a day and so on. Suddenly members were wondering could we keep this running long enough to get an entry in the Guinness Book of Records? Rob the Bank got the ball rolling when he said:
I think it’d be epic if we kept it going for like 30 days. We could submit it to the Guinness book of world records.
Not to be outdone Adz upped the anti:
We might have 2 entries into the Guinness world record
And the community's very own professional gambler Dallas, who has never back away from a game of chance confirmed the quest:
Get Guinness world records involved.
If you want to join the quest to get be entered in the Guinness Book of Records and maybe win a $1,000 check out their Telegram Channel. Being tech nerds they have automated the whole competition with countdown clocks etc. It is very cool.
You do not have to participate, but I am sure you would have a lot of fun cheering them on and they would no doubt appreciate your moral support.
For me, I am thinking I would not mind pocketing the $1,000 prize.
This is not investment advice.
