Read.cash held a competition and this is what happened.
Read.cash took another exciting initiative and held a competition between its users. Total prize pool was 60$ , Rules were simple the first one who post hash of block ****632825**** wins 10$ and for winning 50$ procedure was : "3) **Bitcoin Cash blockchain determines the winner** We'll take all the read.cash profile URLs below the correct hash (sorted by "new") and sort them alphabetically. Let's say there are 12 participants. We'll take last 6 digits from the block's hash, for example: ...5bd01f convert it to decimal (Google "0x5bd01f to decimal") = 6017055 take a 6017055 mod number of participants (12) = Google "6017055 mod 12" = 3 So the participant #3 wins. Note that numbering will start with **zero**, because "mod" ("remainder") can be zero Only unique profile links will be considered, so don't post twice." So I was lucky enough to get on block explorer on block 632824 so I thought I could be the winner of 10$ and luckily only after 2 mins block 632825 was mined so I rush to post the hash. I was confident that I would be the first one to do that. But for my surprise I was the third one to post that hash. So the winner for 10$ prize was ramonoropeza. Congratulations to him. https://read.cash/@ramonoropeza 50$ prize goes to one of my favorite **@Telesfor** , Congratulations to him for winning this competition. https://read.cash/@Telesfor I really appreciate read.cash for doing this activity and I admire their efforts to continue evolving this platform and making it more beautiful and more engaging for writers as well as readers. **P.S: I am not liking this homepage which they implemented today .** Another thing that happened which made me confused why people downvoted my comment :D ? and made it -1 point .
Joke aside being the member of this community we should support and admire those who are putting their full efforts in making this community great.

> I am not liking this homepage which they implemented today Just click this thing: https://i.imgur.com/T2EplYx.png We didn't implement it today, we just changed the default. It's up to you to select the layout you want to see.
Thank you. Maybe you can make default the blocks one, I think it has better UI so new users can feel comfortable. Just an opinion
> Another thing that happened which made me confused why people downvoted my comment I don't know, but it seems like r/btc didn't really enjoy the sweepstakes being there. We thought it would be fun to include more r/btc users, since basically nothing is required to enter the sweepstakes and get $50 in Bitcoin Cash :) but I think we were wrong and r/btc didn't enjoy it. We'll probably hold the next one on read.cash directly.
yes facing same while sharing this article to r/btc previous posts got 30+ even 5-+ upvotes this sits on 0 :), But you know what people will always find a reason to dislike, You are doing great keep it up .
supported 😅
That’s actually better.
Thanks friend. It was really exciting and I feel lucky to have won. And even if he hadn't, he would still be happy about this initiative Read.Cash has had.
I was so close, Only 8 Seconds later than the first coment with the hash lol
that was sooo close!
First contest I've read about on here, but I am only newly active on the side. I am enjoying read.cash more and more each day, and hopefully, I will be able to participate in one of these contests soon instead of reading about it later!
Good post and the competition was great. We should all help grow read.cash. It has great potential to takeoff and benefit stakeholders. The vision is an exciting one. I was 2 hours before the right hash. So missed too! lol congrats to winners!
Yeah I agree 👍
