Results & Key Stats

As of February 19, 2PM UTC, we have received a total of 289,929 entries into the Priority Mint Lottery from 189,467 unique wallets.

  • Lottery Pool 1 (Ecosystem NFT holders): 18,366 entries were received from 1,830 unique wallets, from which 1,500 winners will be selected from this pool.

Winner Selection

The selection of the winners will be facilitated through a lottery draw algorithm, employing a random `seed` generated through community engagement.

For anyone interested to verify the integrity of the lottery results, you may review and run this script: https://github.com/ramenfinance/lottery-draw

The random seed integer will be obtained in the following manner: We will make an announcement in the Ramen Discord server shortly after the Lottery closes. For a period of 15 minutes, community members can freely react to the announcement. At the end of the 15-minute period, we will sum the number of reactions and obtain the seed integer.

With the seed, we will begin running the script to pick winning addresses based on the weight of their entries — the more entries, the higher the weightage. Once an address has been picked, it will be removed from the list together with its entries. The script will continue picking and removing addresses from the list until we have selected 1,600 winning addresses.

Anyone will be able to run the script with the seed integer to verify the fairness of the lottery draw.
