Everybody loves a contest. It's even more meaningful when people like the prizes. The best way to do that is to get input from people who'd be interested. To help with that, I'm going to run a mini contest.
(Created with Gemini)
I'm planning to run a month-long contest with Hive-Engine tokens as the prizes. The goal of the contest is to promote my token, ELIXIR. (Find out more about it here.)
To help make sure a contest would offer worthwhile prizes, I want to hear from you! Here is just a sample of what I'm considering giving away:
- EDSI
- PAKX
- DUO
- ELIXIR
- HSBIDAO
All of these tokens pay dividends in some form and/or offer curation.
Is there something you think is missing from the list?
The idea for the contest would be to purchase X amount of ELIXIR and be put in a drawing either weekly or monthly. I'm debating on if there should be prize tiers or just random chance.
What do you think?
Any good answers and/or suggestions will go into a drawing. When the post reaches payout, one lucky person wins 20 HSBI!



Buy ELIXIR and stake to receive HIVE dividends!

Dab, Dbond or rug could also be a prize.

You are welcome :D
I can add a few of those, if you need some funding.
U became extremely rich after your BD xD
Ehm. Not sure what BD stands for xD
Birthday?
Ohh...... I never use that shortern xD
I actually have a decent amount of those saved up, but I'll definitely keep that in mind. 🙂
U are missing PANDA
I don't know about prize tiers, but I think you need to differentiate the odds for every participants, either by certain staked volume or others. I like the initial idea of CLUB TOKEN, which we get raffles and it doesn't have anything related with curation or getting voted at all. But HBD return is not something sustainable

I'll have to look into PANDA. I haven't researched it much. Does it pay dividends?
Can you go into more detail on different odds based on staked volume?

PANDA pays for dividen, @dlmmqb can explain better as he is part of the team lol.
for different odds, it is similar to what you do for the silver raffle, but the ticket is based on how many tokens they stake. so basically more tokens a person stakes, higher odds he has

Once a month when I manually recharge ;)

@bulliontools
Also, few parts of site r broken and @panda-brofi didn't get updated
It's a great project for 20 years plans but i don't have direct control on it's updates so any new expansion, corrections or fixes can be super duper delayed
Rest of the core works uninterrupted
Cool. I'll check it out. Thanks!
Thank you!
Since I’m currently building a daily writing habit, I’d suggest holding a writing contest. We could have a specific theme each week or allow open-topic articles focused on the token being featured as the prize. Participants would be free to choose the token, use any writing style, and share whatever stories or insights they like about it.
This could also serve as a promotional activity to help the community learn more about those tokens—especially since I’m only familiar with a small fraction of the ones you mentioned earlier.
I like the idea of a writing contest, but the goal would be to promote ELIXIR.
I'll have to give it some more thought, but I like it.

Maybe contest for the most viewed artikel about ELIXIR 😃
BBHO?
Interesting choice. I like it. What would be a "worthy" prize amount in your opinion?

That's two votes for BBHO. I'll have to seriously consider adding that.
Thanks!

Does it have to be a token which gives rewards?
What about swap.btc?
BBH or BBHO?
No, it doesn't have to be.
So long as the prizes are something others are interested and would encourage participation, I'm open to ideas.

There are a lot of weekly contests making it difficult for users to participate on each one. Though I understand that it must not be the same target users but just to get good participation, I think a two week participation or Saturday for a start to seek a balance will gain participants.
It can be in form of writing and then your team deciding the winners at the end of the timeline.
Tolens like the BBHO, ALIVE, DUO and those ones you mentioned will be good for a start while you continue to adjust and make changes where necessary.
Again, topics can be rolled out for participants to write on or freestyle writing using a specific topic 🤔
Keep pushing. It's going to work out.
There certainly are a lot of contests happening. I still plan to keep it to one month, but maybe I can add additional ways to get extra entries outside of writing a post.
