Title: [RAFFLE] Win a Gridseed ASIC Miner! Plug-n-Play ready | CLOSED
Post by: LiteBit on May 20, 2014, 03:12:47 PM
Hello fellow miners,

Welcome to the Gridseed ASIC Miner (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00J4XPKJU/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00J4XPKJU&linkCode=as2&tag=lit032-20&linkId=SZFHVBLI4QSQ2W7O), Plug-n-Play ready raffle!

I am raffling off a Brand New, Plug-n-Play ready Gridseed ASIC Miner. Each ticket is only 500 bits! (BTC0.0005)

Imagine, turning 500 bits into a Gridseed ASIC Miner, a return of nearly 550 times the cost of a single ticket!

The winner of this miner will earn the purchase price of their ticket back within 24 hours mining Bitcoin and within 12 hours mining Litecoin.

Pretty cool huh?!


RULES OF THE CONTEST:
  • The odds of winning this raffle is 1 / (total # of tickets sold)
  • This raffle will end on Friday, May 23, 2014 at 1pm EST.
  • You may purchase as many tickets as you like.
  • The only piece of information you need to submit is your email address. This will be hashed so it will not be given out to the public.
  • We will keep a public Pastebin of the ticket numbers and email hashes, hopefully updating the list multiple times a day leading up to the close of the contest.
  • The purchase buttons will be removed and the final ticket holder list will be posted after the contest closes.
  • The raffle will be decided by:
    • Each ticket purchase, whether a single ticket or multiple tickets, will be time-stamped on the blockchain.
    • Tickets will be numbered by date/time purchased. Multiple tickets will represent blocks of numbers related to time-stamp of purchase(ie: #25-#40).
    • We will use the Bitcoin blockchain raffle ticket picker (http://we.lovebitco.in/raffle.html) to pick the winner. The block hash used to pick the winner will be the first block mined after 2pm EST the day the contest closes. (i.e.: 1 hour after contest closes)
  • Once the results of the raffle have been verified, the winner will be emailed directly for verification.
  • Once the winner has been verified, the Gridseed Plug-n-Play ready miner will be shipped to the new owner within 48 hours.

That's weird. Got you down for 1 ticket. That could win it!

No need to post your email hash here. I'll get it on the pastebin and ticket holders just need to look for their hash to find their ticket number(s).

Nice raffle, but... Gridseeds have become never R.O.I. paperweights.

Thanks! We're excited about the contest

BTC0.0005 = 1 Ticket
BTC0.00056 = mining Bitcoin for only 24 hrs
BTC0.00102 = mining Litecoin for only 24 hrs

That's pretty good ROI right!

Thanks for helping promote the contest!

You need to PM me your email so I can issue a Ticket number for promoting this in your signature.
Also, please include the transaction id from the 10+1 you said you paid for. I'm not seeing it in my BitPay ledger yet.

What are you going to mine with your Gridseed ASIC if you win? Bitcoin? Litecoin? something else??

Ticket sales starting to pick up with less than 48 hours remaining in this contest.

You should! You have a very good chance of winning this thing.

Don't let this opportunity pass you by. Grab a ticket (or multiple) and win a chance at an ASIC that guarantees ROI.

It's a no brainer dude!
