The "Lightning Spin" wheel - August/September 2021

Available to Fold Cardholders August 25th - September 29th, 2021

September 9 - 29, 2021 update:
Looks like Lightning strikes twice...

We are still so amped up about our LN integration announcement, and the Lightning Spin design was so 🔥, that we decided to extend it through the end of September.

However, after hearing a lot of this:

...we knew that we had to make some adjustments to the odds.

So while we’re keeping the ⚡ design, here’s what will change:

• Raised caps from $5 to $20 on all % prizes
• Lowered minimum spend of both over/under prizes to $250, and lowered prize caps from $50 to $20
• Lowered floor to 0.25%
• Increased duration of wheel from 2 weeks to 3

Lightning the way

We believe that Lightning will mediate the future of all retail and consumer bitcoin experiences. We're already seeing this in motion with network capacity growing at a parabolic clip and the announcement earlier this week that Substack subscribers will now be able to pay via LN.

We also have some upcoming Lightning-related developments 🤫, but we won't spoil the news just yet. So, to kick us off, we bring you – The Lightning Spin. With this purchase wheel, we hope to build another layer (SWIDT?) on top of the behavior that previous two wheels rewarded: using the Fold card for everyday purchases.

We saw some epic wins on the "If it ain't broke..." Spinwheel...

...including a 1 BTC winner 🤑

Which brings the total to 12 whole coin wins.

And, with that, we bring you the updated epic prizes that will be available on the post-purchase wheel now through September 8th.

Why spend on the Lightning wheel

• Added 4% spending match prize; reduced clutter of too many 1.x% prizes
• Spiked Over/Under reward chances to 6%
• Replaced low odds of hitting 1M sats prize with higher odds of hitting 100k sats prize
• The trade-offs: we halved maximum $ of sats back for Over/Under % and 100% Spending Match, and reduced $ caps on $ Spending Match rewards.

💡Reminder: you can also stack spins when you save & spend. Earn extra spins every single day your balance is greater than $1,000, and every time you make a purchase over $250.

Enter the Metaverse

Last week we also announced that we are releasing an AR game in a few weeks. Get ready to stack sats in the Metaverse (and have another tool to 🍊💊 your no coiner friends).

The "give $25, get $25" referral program lives on!

The limited-time referral program was such a smash hit that we decided it should stay. Check out how you give and get $25 when you orange pill your friends and family.

How would you rate this week's spinwheel? Great 🎉 • Meh 😑 • No Good 👎
