If you want to stay on the good side of your favorite president, you should bet on my new lottery, TrumpMegaMillions.
How It Works
How to Enter
Buy Ṁ1 YES and sell it immediately.
How the Winner is Selected
After this market closes, I will ask @FairlyRandom to generate a random number N among 1 to 5000 in the comments. The Nth unique trader of this market wins 10000 mana and the loan (see below), if such a trader exists. Otherwise, no prize is awarded.
Resolution
This market will unconditionally resolve to 50%.
Prizes
Ṁ10,000
A 30-day Ṁ8,000 loan at 2.5% if desired.
Your risk.markets credit score must be above 200 to receive the loan.
This rule can have exceptions if the user is well-known or trusted.
Get Higher Chances of Winning
You can purchase additional entries in the lotto at the price of Ṁ5 each.
You will get an additional N number when the 5000-sided die is rolled.
You must purchase a minimum of 2 additional entries
To buy entries, managram the required mana to @realDonaldTrump with the message "TMM [Date] [# of entries]"
Changing Your Lotto Numbers
If you wish, you can purchase specific lotto numbers.
It costs Ṁ1 per lotto number you want to change.
Since you can only managram a minimum of Ṁ10, you can managram @realDonaldTrump Ṁ1 for the number of lotto numbers you'd like to change.
Comment on this market what you sent and what numbers you want.
For instance, you are unique trader 15 and have 9 additional tickets. You want your numbers to be 1234, 1235, [...], 1243. You can managram Ṁ10 and comment each number you want to change.
Automations and Bounties
I have also made a python script if you want to automate a buy-1-sell-1 every day: https://github.com/realDonaldTrump-Manifold/TrumpMegaMillions
For each month a Manifolder runs this script continuously, I will send the user Ṁ50.
Stats
Day: 2
All-Time Prizes: Ṁ0

Yesterday's "Gamblers": 28
If anyone has suggestions for more stats, LMK in the comments.
Disclaimers & Credits
Disclaimers:
I reserve the right to end TrumpMegaMillions at any time for any reason.
TrumpMegaMillions will resolve and will make a new daily market within 24 hours of close time. I am likely to resolve shortly after close, but I am not liable if I hold off for longer.
Although I don't think there are any, I am not responsible for any bugs in the automation that may cause losses.
I reserve the right to not pay out automation bounties if I do not believe the claimer was actually using the script.
Should @FairlyRandom fail to produce a response 24 hours after the close date, and after additional @FairlyRandom roll requests, I will manually resolve it according to a Google coinflip (outcome is final).
I can also add disclaimers at any moment.
