Giveaway rules
Applies to all giveaways
Each unique commenter on a giveaway-eligible video earns one entry for that video. Tag a friend in a comment on that video and you earn one bonus entry, so that video can count as two entries. Multiple comments on the same video do not stack beyond that, and tagging more than one friend on the same video still earns one bonus entry.
Commenting on multiple giveaway-eligible videos can earn entries on each video, as long as the comment lands inside that giveaway's entry window. You must be following ChaseCollective on the platform where you enter when the winner is checked. Bot-like behavior, hate speech, spam, or attempts to use multiple accounts may be excluded.
Fair, public picks
Every draw publishes a commitment before the deciding Bitcoin block exists. The winner is picked from the first Bitcoin block whose miner timestamp is at or after that giveaway's committed draw time. Because the rule is fixed ahead of time and the block is not knowable in advance, we cannot pick a favorable block or re-run the draw for a different result.
Weekly giveaways
Weekly giveaways use the normal weekly entry window shown on the Weekly Giveaway page. Comments and tag bonuses must be posted before that weekly run locks. The weekly Bitcoin draw rule uses the first block at or after Saturday 06:00 UTC for that run.
Weekly entries and winners stay separate from bonus events. Entering a bonus event does not remove or replace any weekly giveaway entry.
World Cup bonus event
The World Cup giveaway is a separate bonus event, not a replacement for the weekly giveaway. It opens June 11, 2026 at 19:00 UTC and locks July 19, 2026 at 19:00 UTC.
During that event window, comments on World Cup giveaway videos count toward the World Cup leaderboard. Tagging a friend on a World Cup giveaway video earns the same one bonus entry for that video.
The World Cup draw uses the first Bitcoin block whose miner timestamp is at or after July 20, 2026 at 00:00 UTC. That is separate from the weekly draw schedule.
More detail (optional)
The important part of every draw is the same: the committed draw time is fixed before entries are resolved, and the first Bitcoin block at or after that time supplies the random seed.
That block's hash is a long random-looking string produced by miners, not by us. It gets plugged into a deterministic formula that maps to an entry in the pool. Anyone running the same formula on the same entries and block hash gets the same winner.
Bitcoin is public and global. Blocks are produced by miners around the world, and no one controls which miner finds the next block or what its hash will be. Once the deciding block exists, it is permanent on the public chain.
