Scoring System & Prize Distribution

The scoring system is simple. For each solved problem, the participant can earn a maximum of 6 points:

• Successful solution of the problem = 5 points
• If the solution is solved with no gas spent = 1 extra point

Prizes:

1. 10,000 TON - The top 15% of participants
2. 10,000 TON - The middle 30% of participants
3. 10,000 TON - The bottom 55% of participants

The pool of 10,000 TON will be split equally between all participants in the corresponding cohorts. In total, we will award 30,000 TON.*
