We've just processed refunds to all 22 wallets affected by failed ponder votes. Every user whose onchain vote didn't complete but who spent USDC has been refunded. Data transparency: - 22 wallets affected (accounting for 1.6% of 3,324 total votes since May 17) - All affected USDC has been returned to wallets - Notifications sent to all affected users We've also implemented major technical improvements behind the scenes that should reduce these issues significantly going forward, official announcement coming later today We'll continue monitoring throughout the week to catch and refund any additional failed votes If you received a refund notification, check your wallet. If you believe you're still missing funds, please DC us with transaction details.

I don’t think it’s an impression. It’s likely a cognitive dissonance you’re experiencing between what we’re told we should’ve seeing and what you’re perceiving. Regardless, EU is a scam. And we’re paying for it.

@ponder just had the biggest payout of all times. 30X. You may be wondering how. Our anti collusion algo identified a pool of users who have voted together a statistically extremely unlikely portion of the time. Their votes were diminished in weight while they attempted to vote with large entries. TL;DR - algo working as intended. Big payouts for those who got it right.

🛠️ QOL Improvement The @ponder voting confirmation screen now shows the amount that you would win if you were to select the right answer given current conditions. This number changes as more people enter the pool, but should feel less complicated than the percentages we showed previously.

this might be hard then. i'd probably try having a separate ambient noise device and alarm (Lumie comes ot mind, or maybe a smart speaker?), and then you can start shedding your morning smartphone issue

I don’t know how helpful this will be to you, but what helped me was to leave my phone in another room on the charger for the night, every night. I don’t get phone cravings any more. I don’t even think about the phone when I start the day anymore. Can’t recommend this enough.

the same way the market responded to everyone saying Maldives will go under water: by building a few more high-throughput airports on the archipelago
