The Rothschild of Crypto Binance welcomes the Gamblers

Binance has announced a new sale model on @binance Launchpad: a lottery, based on bnb holdings.

But wait! To participate in the lottery, you must have at least 100 BNB stored on your balance 20 days before the sale. Whales only?

Summary

– The next Binance Launchpad token launch will be conducted as a lottery, instead of a first-come-first-served system.

–
The number of tickets you can claim depends on the amount of BNB you
hold over a 20-day period in a Binance account leading up to the day of
the lottery, up to a maximum of 5 tickets per eligible account.

–
The lottery draw will be done via a transparent, randomized system with
a random selection of lottery tickets based on tail digits (explained
below).

– Account verification (KYC) and country restrictions will still apply.

Lottery Ticket Allocation

Users
will be able to claim up to a maximum of 5 lottery tickets based on
their BNB holdings over the 20 days (represented by X below) leading up
to the lottery draw date.

For example, 100 ≤  X < 200 means that your BNB balance over the entire 20-day period is kept at 100 BNB or more, but does not exceed or reach 200 BNB.

Each
user’s BNB balance will be recorded in a snapshot at 0:00 AM (UTC) each
day. Should a user’s BNB balance drop below the minimum balance
required on any given day during the 20-day period, they will be put
into the lower threshold. For example, User A holds 301 BNB for 19 of
the 20 days but their balance drops to 299 BNB on one day. They will now
only be eligible to claim 2 lottery tickets.

Each
lottery ticket has a unique number. If you claim multiple lottery
tickets, the numbers will be consecutive. For example, if you claim 5
tickets, your ticket numbers may be 100010, 100011, 100012, 100013 and
100014. These numbers are used in a transparent draw mechanism described
later.

For
each project, Binance will announce the maximum number of potential
lottery ticket winners, and the allocation amount corresponding to each
winning ticket ahead of time. For example, 10,000 potential winning
tickets, each representing 500 USD worth of tokens. This will change for
each project on Launchpad.

Prior
to the lottery date, users will be given a 24 hour period to select how
many lottery tickets they wish to enter, with the maximum number to be
based on their BNB holdings over the past 20 days. Please note that
entering this ticket amount is a commitment to purchase the amount of
tokens corresponding to your eventual number of winning tickets. For
example, if User B puts in an entry of 5 tickets and only 2 tickets end
up winning, they are committed to pay for 2 ticket allocations (in BNB)
for the tokens.

After
this 24 hour period, with all tickets fully issued, Binance will begin
randomly selecting multi-digit numbers. These will be matched against
the tail digits of all issued tickets to determine a list of winners.
This process will continue until the maximum number of winners
(previously set) are matched. The respective BNB will be deducted from
each winning user’s balance, as soon as they are deemed a winner.

Example of a Lottery Timeline for Project A

Announcement of New Project:
Binance reveals new Launchpad Project A, announcing a maximum of 15,142
potential winning tickets, with each winning ticket able to purchase
500 USD of the project’s tokens (using BNB). Users must complete Account
Verification and sign the Token Purchase Agreement prior to the lottery
start date.

20 Days Before Lottery:
Binance now starts recording BNB balances to determine the amount of
lottery tickets that can be claimed. This will continue for 20 days.

1 Day Before Lottery:
A 24 hour period begins for users to begin claiming lottery tickets.
For the purposes of this example, a total of 100,140 lottery tickets are
issued at the end of this period.

Lottery Start Date: The lottery begins and various tail numbers are selected at random, with increasing precision (number of digits), until a total of 15,142 winning tickets are reached, representing a win percentage of ~15.12%. The respective BNB is then deducted from all winners’ accounts.
