These resolve according to the results and release announcement of the second stage of the Pivot, aka whenever real money gets activated or when it's decided that real money won't be activated, plus a up to a week for any announcement to trickle in over the various avenues.

For options about what the release announcement includes, all of the following qualify additively:

  • an email newsletter blast, if it happens

  • an on-site announcement page, if it exists

  • the discord announcement/update (almost certainly happens)

  • any pre-release announcement(s)

The announcement doesn't include:

  • clarifying comments and responses by staff

  • anything a mod says

Close date is speculative and subject to change.

edited "James posts the announcement in Discord" to "James is the one to post the announcement in Discord". this was my intent and I believe traders so far understood that but I noticed there was ambiguity that might catch people off guard

"Twomba" or "SweepiesCoin" or "Sweepies" mentioned in announcement

@nikki like, the words? or what they represent?

bought Ṁ75 James is the one to ... YES

the actual word

I'm gonna put them in quotes

So most of these are about the announcement right? But some are separately about the future release?

I.e. if next week they say "finally our version of real money trading arrives Sept 25th" some of these resolve based on that announcement whereas "$10k mana bought" refers to when it's actually available?

(Ian mentioned an announcement likely next week and I doubt that will involve anything being launched)

yep! should I count a pre-release announcement as the announcement?
