Hey everyone!
Last year I organized a Seed Phrase Hunt for the community, and the response was incredible. The puzzles, the collaboration, the thrill of the chase – it was everything I hoped it would be.
So I’m doing it again. But this time, I’m playing the long game.
The vision
This hunt is designed to be hard. Not “solved in a weekend” hard – more like “this might take months” hard. The idea is simple: with ANT at its current price, we have a unique opportunity to build a prize pool now that could become something truly remarkable as the network grows. Imagine the reach we could generate with a prize pot that’s grown 10x or more by the time someone finally cracks it.
Timeline
The hunt won’t start until the network is stable enough for permanent data storage and accessible to a broader audience. Expect all puzzle pieces to be released Q2 2025 at the earliest. This gives everyone plenty of time to contribute – whether that’s a one-time donation or slowly converting your node rewards into the prize pool for a steady build-up.
Collaboration with Autonomi
I’ve been in touch with Jim, and he’s enthusiastic about helping out. We’re planning to hide some puzzle pieces in upcoming Autonomi social content – turning this into a proper marketing event that boosts engagement across the board.
Contribute to the prize pool
I’ve already seeded the wallet with 1,500 ANT + ETH for gas. If you want to help make this hunt legendary, you can send contributions to:
0x4F207491e537e78D6CD3e75a368b2B1728148df8
Every bit helps – and who knows what that ANT will be worth by the time someone finally solves it.
Stay tuned
More details on puzzle format and mechanics will follow as we get closer to launch. For now, consider this your invitation to be part of something big.
Let’s build a prize pool worth hunting for.
