Gibbr $500 USDC Giveaway — Official Rules

Last updated 27 August 2026

1. Who is running this

The sponsor is Gibbr, operated by Shawn Lippert, 95b Havasupai St, Grand Canyon, AZ 86023, United States. Questions go to support@gibbr.app, which is the only address we use for this giveaway.

This giveaway is a game of chance, not a contest of skill. Winners are drawn at random from all eligible entries. Nobody judges the quality of your post, your photo or your writing.

2. When it runs

Event	When
Entries open	27 August 2026, 12:00 am UTC
Entries close	30 September 2026, 11:59:59 pm Phoenix time (1 October 2026, 06:59:59 am UTC)
Random draw	1 October 2026
Winners notified	Within 24 hours of the draw, by email
Prizes sent	Within 7 days of a winner confirming their address

The clock that matters is the sponsor's entry system, not your device. An entry is counted when our server records it.

3. Who can enter

• You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of legal majority where you live, whichever is greater.
• Open worldwide, except where prohibited or restricted by law, and except residents of Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Russia, Belarus and Venezuela, and any region subject to comprehensive sanctions.
• You must be able to receive USDC on the Base network at an address you control.
• Not open to the sponsor, anyone who worked on Gibbr, or their immediate families and households.
• Entering means you accept these rules as they are written.

4. How to enter, free

Go to gibbr.app/contest, give an email address and a Base address, and press enter. That is the whole free entry route and it is worth one entry. No payment, no subscription, no card.

One person, one entry record. One email address and one Base address per person. Re-submitting the same email shows you the entry you already have; it never creates a second one. Using several emails, several wallets, disposable-mail services, or any tool that fakes separate people is grounds for disqualification of every entry involved.

5. Earning extra entries

Extra entries are optional. Each one is free to earn.

What you do	Entries	Limit
Enter the giveaway	1	Once
A friend enters using your share code	2 each	20 friends (40 entries)
Post publicly about Gibbr with a link to gibbr.app	3 each	2 posts
Post publicly about Gibbr in a language other than English, with a link to gibbr.app	5 each	3 posts, each in a different language
Show Gibbr doing real work — photo of a card in use, or a screenshot of a conversation	5 each	2 submissions
Introduce a hotel, clinic, shop or site that starts a Gibbr pilot	25 each	2 introductions

No single person may hold more than 100 entries, however they were earned.

Rules for extra entries:

• A referral counts only when your friend actually completes an entry. Referring yourself, or people who do not exist, counts for nothing.
• Posts must be public, must stay up until 15 October 2026, must be your own, and must not be paid promotion, engagement-farming, or spam in other people's replies and inboxes.
• A post in another language earns more because it reaches the people Gibbr is built for. Write it in a language you actually read and write, or have a speaker check it. Each of your three claims must be a different language, and it must be a genuine post to a real audience, not a copy pasted into an empty account.
• English posts earn the 3-entry bonus, not the 5-entry one. One post earns one bonus — the same link cannot be claimed twice.
• We publish ready-made wording in several languages on the giveaway page. Using it is fine, and writing your own is better. Machine-translated text that does not make sense to a speaker will be rejected.
• Photos and screenshots must be yours to share. Blur or crop anything private, and do not submit anyone's medical, legal or personal information. If people are recognisable, you confirm they agreed.
• A venue introduction counts when the venue starts a pilot or a paid plan and confirms you introduced them.
• Every extra entry is reviewed by a human before it is added. We may ask you one question about it. Approved entries show on your page at gibbr.app/contest.
• We may reject a claim, and the reason we give is final.

6. What you can win

Prize	Winners	Value
Grand prize	1	200 USDC
Runner-up	3	50 USDC each
Standard prize	15	10 USDC each
Total prize pool		500 USDC

Where the money comes from. Prizes are paid by the sponsor, from the sponsor's own funds, after the draw. Nothing is held in escrow or locked in a contract beforehand, no entrant is ever asked to deposit, stake or fund anything, and there is no token. The sponsor is responsible for paying every prize listed above, and each payment appears publicly on Base once sent.

All prizes are paid in USDC on the Base network (chain ID 8453) to the address on your entry. Prizes are not transferable and there is no cash, bank-transfer or other-currency alternative. One prize per person; the draw will not award two prizes to the same entrant.

If fewer than 19 eligible entries exist at the close, the sponsor awards prizes in the order listed above until entries run out, and the rest go unawarded.

7. How the draw works, and how you can check it

Every entry is one ticket in one pool. Someone with 10 entries has ten tickets; someone with 1 has one. Tickets are drawn without replacement, so nobody wins twice.

The draw is built so we cannot quietly pick our friends:

1. When entries close, we freeze the list and publish its SHA-256 fingerprint on this page. Any later edit to the list would change that fingerprint.
2. The randomness comes from the first Base block mined at or after 1 October 2026, 07:00:00 am UTC. Nobody, including us, can know that block hash in advance.
3. That block hash seeds a documented, deterministic draw. We publish the block number, the hash, the frozen list and the draw code.
4. Anyone can run the same code on the same inputs and land on the same 19 winners. If our published winners differ, we are caught.

Draw method in one line: keccak/SHA-256(block_hash + ":" + ticket_index) ranks the tickets, and the highest-ranked distinct entrants take the prizes in the order listed in section 6.

8. Winning, and getting paid

• We email winners within 24 hours of the draw, at the address on the entry, and we post the winners on this page.
• You have 14 days to reply and confirm your Base address. Miss that window and the prize is forfeited and redrawn.
• We send USDC on Base within 7 days of your confirmation, and we publish the transaction hash so the payment is public.
• Blockchain transfers cannot be reversed. Confirm your address character by character. A prize sent to an address you gave us is paid, even if the address turns out to be wrong or belongs to an exchange that does not credit it.
• Network fees are on us. Any tax on a prize is yours, and you are responsible for reporting it where you live. Individual prizes here are well below US 1099 reporting thresholds.
• We may ask a winner to confirm their identity, age and country before paying, and we may withhold a prize we cannot lawfully send.

9. Being announced

Winners agree that we may publish the name or handle on their entry, their country, and the payment transaction hash, which is public on Base regardless. Tell us if you would rather be announced by first name or handle only and we will respect that. We never publish your email address.

10. Behaviour we will disqualify for

• Bots, scripts, automated entry, or any attempt to game the entry system.
• Multiple identities, bought followers, fake accounts, or paid engagement.
• Spamming other people's mentions, replies, inboxes or groups with your link.
• Posts that mislead people about what Gibbr does, or that imply it is a financial product, an investment, or a token.
• Harassment, hate speech, or sexual content attached to a Gibbr link.
• Interfering with the site, the entry system, or other entrants.

Disqualification removes every entry connected to the person, including referral credit others earned from them.

11. Your information

We collect your email, Base address, chosen name or handle, country, and anything you submit for a bonus. We use it to run this giveaway, to pay winners, and to answer you. We do not sell it. See the privacy policy. Ask us at support@gibbr.app to delete your entry at any time — that also withdraws you from the draw.

12. Gibbr is not a financial product

USDC is used here only as a way to pay a prize. Entering is not an investment, there is no token, no yield, no expectation of profit, and nothing here is financial advice. Gibbr is translation software.

13. Things outside our control

If fraud, a technical failure, a network outage, or anything else beyond our reasonable control corrupts the fairness or the running of this giveaway, we may cancel, suspend or amend it. If we do, we will say so on this page and award prizes fairly among the eligible entries collected up to that point. Our liability to any entrant is limited to the value of the prize they could have won.

We may correct an obvious clerical error in these rules or in a published entry total. Substantive changes will be dated on this page and will not reduce entries you have already earned.

14. Not associated with these companies

This giveaway is not sponsored, endorsed, administered by, or associated with X (Twitter), Meta, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, Reddit, Google, Apple, Coinbase, Circle, the Base network, or any other platform. Do not direct questions about it to them.

15. Law

These rules are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, United States, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Entrants agree that any dispute is resolved individually, in the state or federal courts located in Arizona, and that class actions are waived. If any provision here is unenforceable, the rest still stands. Where local law conflicts with these rules, local law wins and the giveaway is void in that place if it must be.

16. Winners

The draw has not happened yet. Winners, the frozen entry-list fingerprint, the Base block number and hash, and the payment transaction hashes all appear here on 1 October 2026.
