How it works

Read this once and you know everything. No small print anywhere else.

It is free to play. You never pay to enter, you cannot buy chances, and you cannot lose money here. This is not gambling.

The basics

Your daily $FK

How much you get depends on one thing: your follower count on X.

The follower ladder

Your followers on X, read at your last login. Nothing else changes it, and it can never be bought from us.

Followers on X$FK, every day
0 – 91 $FK
10 – 492 $FK
50 – 995 $FK
100 – 49910 $FK
500 – 99920 $FK
1,000 – 4,99930 $FK
5,000 – 9,99945 $FK
10,000 – 49,99960 $FK
50,000 – 99,99980 $FK
100,000+100 $FK

The draw

One winner, every single day, at 00:00 UTC.

Getting your money out

Winnings are yours. They sit in your balance until you ask for them.

Where the prize money comes from

From the cash people put on the day. Never from playing.

What adding cash gets you

One thing to buy, one price: a day.

Sharing $FK

The door

Nobody plays alone. Your handout, and the draw, are behind a door that only a real friend opens.

The rules we will enforce

The exact wording, for anyone who wants it
Free to play
fuckmoney.lol is free to play. You never pay to enter and you can never buy $FK. Every eligible account gets one free handout per UTC day, sized by the published follower ladder: the smallest accounts get the floor, the largest get the ceiling. $FK is not real money, cannot be withdrawn and cannot be bought.
Chance
Every 1 $FK you put in the pot is exactly 1 chance. Nothing else changes your odds.
The prize
The prize is the cash put on that day. There is one thing anybody can buy here — a day — and half of what a day costs is the prize drawn for on it; the rest runs the site. Cash on a day buys a name on the pot and nothing else: it is not an entry, it adds no weight to anybody's odds, and no part of it is an input to the draw. A day nobody has taken has no cash prize. Playing is always free.
The pot
The $FK entered into a draw is the odds and nothing else. Nobody wins it: it is spent, and it expires with everything else at 00:00 UTC. What the winner is paid is real cash.
Daily expiry
The daily $FK handout is a day pass, not a balance. Whatever is not entered into the draw before 00:00 UTC expires and does not carry over, so nobody can bank weeks of it for one enormous entry.
Cutoff
The raffle closes at 00:00:00 UTC. Entries are recorded the instant they are made; anything after the cutoff belongs to the next raffle.
Snapshot
At lock, eligible participants are sorted by immutable X user id (ascending, byte-wise) and assigned consecutive integer ranges [cumulative_start, cumulative_end] sized by their weight. The canonical JSON of [{x_user_id, weight}] is hashed with SHA-256.
Randomness
Randomness comes from the drand League of Entropy quicknet beacon. The round used is fixed and published before the raffle closes. The beacon's BLS signature is verified against the chain public key before use.
Winner
seed = SHA-256('outluckme-raffle-v1|' + raffle_id + '|' + snapshot_hash + '|' + randomness). A uniform integer in [0, total_weight - 1] is derived from the seed with rejection sampling (no modulo bias). The participant whose range contains that integer wins.
Payout
A prize is credited to the winner's cash balance the moment the draw settles, and that balance never expires. Withdraw it whenever you like, by PayPal, bank transfer or Bitcoin, above the published minimum. A win flagged for multi-accounting is reviewed before it is credited, and multi-accounting forfeits the prize.
Gifting
$FK may be sent between established accounts within published daily limits, and a gift expires with the recipient's day like any other $FK. Selling, buying or trading it for anything of value is prohibited and forfeits the account and any prize.
The door
Nobody plays alone. The daily handout, and with it the draw, is behind a door that only a real friend's arrival opens: every X account that signs up through your /r/<handle> link and clears the published minimums (account age and followers) hands you keys, and keys buy passes. One key opens the door for one UTC day and is spent doing it; five keys earned in all open it for thirty days; ten keys earned in all open it for life. An arrival hands over keys by its reach on the published key ladder. An account under the minimum age or follower floor hands over nothing and is not accepted as a plus-one; an arrival from the same connection its referrer claims from hands over nothing. Anyone who arrives on a link and clears the minimums receives one welcome key of their own. Keys carry no weight: your handout is still sized by your own reach on the follower ladder and still expires at 00:00 UTC. An account is bound to at most one referrer, at the moment it is created, and that binding cannot afterwards be changed. Bringing somebody in earns no $FK.

$FK is play money. It has no cash value, cannot be withdrawn, cannot be bought, and every balance resets at 00:00 UTC. The only real money here is the prize, paid for by whoever put cash on the day — and once you win it, it is cash in your balance to withdraw.
