How the #BCHTreasureHunt Works (Mechanics)

• The grand prize will be hidden in a Bitcoin.com wallet.

• The clues (one clue per day) to finding each word of the 12 recovery words to the wallet will be posted on noise.cash. So I recommend you follow me on noise.cash for updates.

• There is no specific time for posting the clues.

• With the aid of the clue, you will visit and search the linked post where the word has been hidden to find the word.

• The words will be given in chronological order. The first clue will be for the first word, the second clue for the second word, and so on. But there may be a twist at the end. So be watchful for that little twist.

• When you visit the post with the hidden word, try to like the post and possibly leave a content-related comment, just to encourage the author we used his/her post.

• When you find each word, keep it safe, you can write them down as they come.

• The first user to find all 12 words and successfully restores the wallet and sweep the fund wins.

FAQ

Do I have to be a read.cash and noise.cash user to participate in the treasure hunt?

No, the Bitcoin Cash treasure hunt is open to everyone who reads this article and the clues on noise.cash. Anyone can win, although I would appreciate it if you join read.cash and noise.cash and spread the word about Bitcoin Cash to your friends and family. You will also need a bitcoin.com wallet app to be able to restore the wallet.

How do I recover the wallet?

Once you've found all the 12 recovery words and their specific order, you have to quickly recover the fund in the Bitcoin.com wallet app. Immediately after you have restored the wallet, quickly sweep the bitcoin cash out of the wallet into your personal wallet, to prevent other participants from accessing your prize. 

Follow this guide to learn how to restore a Bitcoin.com wallet using the 12-word recovery phrase.

When does the Bitcoin treasure hunt end?

This round of the treasure hunt will end on March 15, and the next round will commence on March 16. I will leave the bitcoin cash in the wallet for you to recover until the new round post is made on March 16. If not recovered, the prize will be moved over to the next round.

So what are you waiting for? Let's hunt!

P.S., The first recovery word is hidden in this post. The clue to the word will be posted on noise.cash soon.

Happy Hunting!
