Friendly Reminder: RUNCOIN Distribution - Post Your Proof of Run and Get $1 Worth Of Tokens πŸƒπŸ»

in running β€’Β  7 years agoΒ 


This is a friendly reminder about the ninth distribution round of RUNCOIN, my experimental coin for runners. By distribution round I understand something very similar to a faucet, in crypto lingo, only I'm doing it manually.

RUNCOIN is already trading on OpenLedger, so if you want to get it in other ways than just running, you can simply buy some.

For each running activity you get $1 worth of RUNCOIN (between 27 and 50 tokens at the current price). I will also need your OpenLedger account so I'll know where to send it.

Here are the detailed rules:

  • $1 worth of RUNCOIN per activity (running activity, that is)
  • proof of run must be submitted, in the comments: screenshot + link + proof of identity
  • proofs of run must be newer than the date of the announcement post for this round
  • OpenLedger account so I know where to transfer the tokens
  • all transactions will be published here, on Steemit
  • time window for this distribution is September 30th (everything posted after that will not be eligible for rewards)

This round will expire on September 30th, please refer to the distribution roadmap below.

RUNCOIN has a limited supply of 8,888,888 tokens (out of which 88,000 are reserved for network maintenance).

Distribution Roadmap

  • 1st Round: July 1st - July 10th - closed
  • 2nd Round: July 10th - July 20th - closed
  • 3rd Round: July 20th - July 30th - closed
  • 4th Round: July 30th - August 10th - closed
  • 5th Round: August 10th - August 20th - closed
  • 6th Round: August 20th - August 30th - closed
  • 7th Round: August 30th - September 10th - closed
  • 8th Round: September 10th - September 20th - closed
  • 9th Round: September 20th - September 30th - current
  • 10th Round: September 30th - October 10th

You may want to save these dates. In each distribution window, I will distribute $1 worth of RUNCOIN to every runner who will follow the conditions above. The rule is that there is only one slot per distribution window, but you can participate in as many distribution windows as you want. So you can't get more RUNCOIN if you post many races during a distribution window, only one slot, but you can participate in all the distribution windows (getting $1 worth of RUNCOIN in each of them).

I'm curious how this will play out, how many people will find RUNCOIN useful and, why not, how the price will evolve.

Let's run and play :)

hmm interesting project, I will give it a look, what a shame that Im not a runner :c haha

I was thinking the same thing. I walk miles almost every day, but joint pain prevents me from running. This project is an excellent idea though. Hope it gets a lot of interest.

Get movin'!

Anychance this will be automated in the near future with an app of some sort? I think this would be more encouragement for me to run, but I'm pretty lazy/unorganized at remembering to come here and post my runs.

Yeap, that's the whole idea: I'm gauging interest with these distribution rounds and then put together an app. That's the plan, at least :)

Hi @dragosroua,
