Strategy and Precautions
The fastest route for those short on time has two steps.
- If already selected, prioritize joining Discord and completing vault creation plus deposit first.
- Check Discord regularly for judging criteria or rule changes.
On cost-effectiveness, since the deposit amount is not announced, keep it within an amount you can afford to risk. From what I've seen, putting funds into a vault can carry management risk, so avoid depositing more than necessary.
On sybil prevention (detection of multiple accounts), the form is presumably limited to one account per person. Duplicate applications across multiple accounts are unlikely to be accepted.
Precautions near the deadline are as follows. Right before August 13, 16:00 GMT, vault creation and deposits may spike, potentially pushing gas fees higher. Completing tasks early is advisable.
I'll also be honest about cases where you shouldn't join. Anyone who didn't submit the form or wasn't selected is likely ineligible this time. Those uncomfortable locking up funds, or unsatisfied with the unclear prize and judging criteria, should consider sitting this one out.
Summary
There's just one next step. If you've already submitted the form, join the vault-manager-challenge Discord channel first. Then create your vault and complete your deposit before August 13, 16:00 GMT.
