x================================+Ladies and Gentleman, the day we've all been snailing for has come ...
We have a winner and it's @south_korea_ln! They have won a staggering amount of 353,243 sats!
@south_korea_ln, to claim your prize, please reply with a BOLT11 invoice for the correct amount, a BOLT12 offer, or a lightning address. Alternatively, you can send the payment details via one of the messaging options in @ek's profile with some proof that I am talking to @south_korea_ln and not some impostor. If you choose to provide a BOLT11 invoice, please ensure it doesn't expire too quickly.
After payment, it would be nice if you could confirm the payment as a reply to this post.
To everyone else: Let me know if you're interested in doing this again for the next milestone, what that milestone should be and if we should change anything. This time, instead of regular posts, I'll probably set up a website (as I originally intended).

mhh, tried to pay with Phoenix but it's seems to be stuck at "payment pending"
Yes, bolt12 i generated with Phoenix. I got a warning that it'll require on-chain fees for some reason (even though I have enough inbound afaik). Warning disappeared at the moment i touched it... so not sure if it is pending or not.
It arrived. Thanks a lot!
No fees from your side?
Just the expected fees of 0.4% + 4 sat, so 1416.972 sats
I also noticed this sometimes so I think it's just a bug. I think it only happens when you just opened the app and it's still connecting and thus isn't aware of any channels yet.
Yeah, I had just opened it to get the bolt12. Thanks for organizing this :)
bolt12 paid!
Congrats @south_korea_ln.
Great job running this @ek.
And kudos to the unknown individual who came up with this brilliant idea. A true genius.
I see, you are not well-versed in the history of the snail. It was mentioned in the first post. No wonder you lost. 👀
@SwearyDoctor came up with the idea for the bet in #168452.
Yes very brilliant by @SwearyDoctor. And others.
lol I just realized he never participated by replying to the first post and paying up.
We will still give him due credit. I didn’t remember where the initial idea came from but I knew I suggested doing the pool/futures bet.
first off, thank you :) second, after seeing me mentioned, I had to go back and retrace what it was that I did or didn't do! I forgot. And my initial bet would have come out to May 30, 2024, so I was off by a good half year anyway. Congrats!
353k sats!! Huge!!
Congratulations @south_korea_ln 🎊
Congrats @south_korea_ln.
What now? Are we gonna do it again for $200k? @ek
Congratulations! Nice call
Congratulations @south_korea_ln 🎉
Thank you all! I'll put those sats to good use (payment of future ~science territory fees~~).
Thanks for paying it forward!
And stay safe!
Congrats 🎉 @south_korea_ln
Congrats to @south_korea_ln, and a big thanks to @ek for keeping this going.
