In November, we launched Nio’s Nightmare Raffle alongside the Wings of Nightmare. This weekend, we’re taking a final tally before choosing the winners! We’ll employ a custom algorithm to ensure fairness and randomness, and announce the winners on December 24th. Here’s how it’s going to work:
How We Pick the Nio Raffle Winners
Our teams will use a custom algorithm to pick the Nio’s Nightmare Raffle winners. Community members will even be able to verify the integrity of the raffle themselves! We’ve created a Twisted Generalized Shift Feedback Register (TGSFR) algorithm to accomplish this mission. Here’s what the process looks like:
First, we’ll label each raffle ticket from 1 to the total number of circulating tickets. On December 24th, we’ll reveal two secret codes that Pos2 and Coco hashed into :
5085618aa12577522bdc14c23742f6fe5a7aa08f7cb3d7cc784c003c4de3135d f629814f089480c09f3335e7d92b97e8f07a3fe4246f7122b8e60417061e632e
We’ll put these codes through the TGSFR algorithm to generate random numbers for the prizes. Next, we’ll assign these random numbers to prizes — all constrained to the total number of circulating tickets. Lastly, we’ll match each raffle ticket number to its corresponding prize. If you hold a raffle ticket matched to a prize, you’ll receive that prize!
Note: we’ll airdrop Nio’s Nightmare Raffle prizes within two weeks after the December 24th winners’ announcement.
Mystery Prizes Revealed!
Last month, we also announced that the top six raffle ticket holders would receive the privilege of nominating one of their Nightmare Axies to feature in an upcoming Nightmare axie comic series. While this isn’t a token or monetary reward, these Axies will soon become part of a lasting nightmarish legacy. We’ll announce these top 6 holders on Dec 24!
Final Thoughts
As we wrap up 2024, it’s easy to get nostalgic looking back on everything we’ve accomplished this year. The Wings of Nightmare. Bounty Boards. Classic Guilds. The list goes on, and we know there were bumps along the way. The next few days are a great time to refresh and recharge with friends and family as we wait for the Nio’s Nightmare Raffle winner announcement. We hope you enjoy this holiday season, and are ready for the exciting year ahead. Let’s keep pushing.🌟 Join Axie Discord
