to our prize pool.

and 2nd and 3rd place 25% each. :)


What are whaleshares?

Each token is worth 1% upvote so you can decide how much weight you want to give to the upvote. Your post will then be upvoted by that whale giving you a significant boost in your payout for that post. Thanks to the genorous @krazykrista from @whaleshares Whaleshares are basically tokens to buy votes from whales like @officialfuzzy 😁
