So this turned out to be total bullshit.
When I ran a computer store we had a monthly draw for customers to win a laptop. Nothing extravagant but we got email submissions tallied up contestants and I would use a random number generator to figure out who won. Some months we would have maximum 40 contestants and sometimes just 10. One lady won twice.
It was simple. Then the customer was contacted and they came to the store and I gave them the laptop.
The attached link is a contest nostr:nprofile1qqsx2wyjt6lmvc05rrvv05r5hm3w3t7h0pcpmkyswrpd4ymd2u09tscpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3kamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu339e682mnwv4k8xct5wvhxxmmdqywhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttsw43zuam9d3kx7unyv4ezumn9wscn3xgh ran and I acted in good faith to win and I won with 2 other people. I was sent a DM to verify my fountain lightning address. I was told that on the 5th I would receive the prize.
Truth be known I spent double the prize on Fountain in 2024 -
I've reached reached out to Fountain here and the only responses were in the 4th of January.
So I'm cancelling my fountain subscription and I'll just use another V4V podcast app.
This is so dumb. I honestly can't be mad because I've been very similar in communication at one time or another. I still always felt though that customers were important. One thing I can do is not pay them anymore.
I don't know about the other contestants but I've seen way too much shady behavior in Bitcoin and it's no different than it was 4 years ago. Over worked and under paid, I get it.
Anyway, Good Night and Goodbye Fountain.
