Official rules

  1. Who can enter: anyone 18 or older, except where giveaways like this are prohibited or restricted by law. Void where prohibited.
  2. Free: no purchase or payment needed. No follows, likes or reposts on any platform are needed.
  3. Entry period: from the announcement on X (@sebuzdugan) until November 29, 2026 at 23:59 CET.
  4. How to enter: subscribe to The Top K with your email and Discord username, join the Discord server, and post your idea in #build-fund. One entry per person, whatever the number of accounts or emails.
  5. Every entry is checked before the draw: the Discord account posted an idea in #build-fund before the deadline, and that Discord username is on an active newsletter subscription. Spam, empty or copied ideas are removed.
  6. The draw: on November 30, 2026, 5 winners are drawn at random from all valid entries using random.org's Third-Party Draw Service. The draw record is linked in the winners announcement, and every entrant can check their own Discord username on it.
  7. Prizes: 5 prizes of $100 (USD) each, sent by PayPal or Wise. The prize can't be swapped for anything else. Winners are responsible for any taxes in their country.
  8. Winners are announced on December 1, 2026 in the newsletter, on Discord and on X, and are contacted by Discord DM. A winner who doesn't reply within 7 days, or can't receive PayPal or Wise, is replaced by a new random draw.
  9. Entering subscribes you to The Top K. You can unsubscribe at any time with one click; winners must still be subscribed on December 1. Your email is used only for the newsletter and this giveaway.
  10. Run by Sebastian Buzdugan. Not sponsored, endorsed or run by X, Discord, beehiiv, Anthropic, OpenAI or any other company.
