3 min readSep 11, 2021

Synapse Network Gleam Contest has ended, and it has been a pleasure to host our community contest! We are pleased that so many people support our values and have joined the financial revolution. We believe that together we can change the world for the better.

After the overwhelming support shown by our users, we decided to give back some of that energy to everyone that has been with us until now, and thus the Synapse Gleam Competition was born.

$5000 (10x $500) worth of SNP were allocated to the contest, and we are very proud to say that this real and tangible reward got the feedback it deserves.

Distribution won’t be difficult at all, as we will airdrop your prize directly to the wallet you provided, and our distribution process will take place on 14/09/2021.

The sheer number of people that participated is mind boggling to us, and we were really looking forward to giving you a complete run-down of how the selection process looked like. We want to do everything with transparency, and this contest is no different.

The huge amount of entries has surprised us in the best way possible, and we are delighted by the continued support everyone is showing us.

We have a vision and we are happy to say that a lot of people share it with us, looking at the Financial Revolution that has already started with Synapse.

STEP 1 SPREADSHEET CREATION

We prepared the spreadsheet containing every person who registered using Gleam and passed the KYC process. The spreadsheet includes three columns:

  1. Assigned consecutive number
  2. ERC20WalletAddress
  3. Points (Total points)

You can find a CSV under the link below:

STEP 2 PUBLIC HASH

For the avoidance of any doubt, we are publishing the SHA256 online hash file checksum function. Anyone is able to check the hash value — this proves that the data has not been tampered with.

You can check it by yourself, for example using PowerShell, or any other SHA256 :

Get-FileHash .\fileName.csv -Algorithm SHA256 |Format-List

STEP 3 GITHUB.

We used a contest selection contract that is available to check on our Github repository under this link:

https://github.com/GemStarterIo/whitelist-selector/blob/main/contracts/ContestSelector.sol#L108-L138

The contract is verified and available to check under this link:

https://polygonscan.com/address/0x9ec9a9c86257dd5e6e1ad24b943adbefeb97ac2a

Contract is keeping links to the Google files with data included in the CSV file as well as containing a SHA256 hash of the CSV file.

STEP 4 HOW DOES THE SMART CONTRACT WORK?

The contract asked Chainlink for a randomValue

Based on randomValue, x unique numbers in the range from 0-to-n were generated

Where each new unique number was also a new randomValue for the function, and n was the number of participants who registered and passed the KYC process.

winnerSeed = uint256(keccak256(abi.encodePacked(previousWinnerSeed, i, nonce)));

winnerIndex = winnerSeed % kycCount;

STEP 5 SELECTION

Using the contract, we were able to select: 20 random numbers matching the numbers from the CSV file, where the winners were the first 10 unique ERC20 addresses.

Everything is verifiable on-chain, links to transactions are posted below.
