Here are the $HOWL public beta challenges!

All challenges start after claim begins. This is targeted for Wednesday 7th September (2022-09-08) at 0900UTC.

All challenges end on Wednesday 14th September (2022-09-12) at 1300UTC.

For challenge 1.1. YOU NEED TO ALREADY BE IN THE AIRDROP TO BE ELIGIBLE. To check this, go to the airdrop claim site. You should be able to see <your-address> can claim X HOWL after connecting your wallet. If you are not eligible, you will see <your-address> was not eligible for the Howl airdrop.

Some challenges will require the team to calculate who won, so winners may not be announced for several days afterward.

Check eligibility and claim

Use the Airdrop claim tool to check your eligibility and claim.

The challenges are:

  1. Posting Challenge for Howl Genesis users:

Notes on challenges:

  • [0] once again - this is only open to users already eligible for the airdrop. If you’re not eligible, you will earn nothing by posting, though you’re welcome to try the app and help us test :)
  • [1] note that a bounty will only be paid on an accepted pull-request. For now we’re looking for guides in English, and there may be future bounties for translations of those, once we have high-quality guides. ONLY ONE BOUNTY WILL BE PAID FOR EACH GUIDE.

Bug Bounties

As in the Public Alpha, the Howl team reserve the right to offer discretionary bounties for:

  • Bugs (~2k HOWL available for serious bugs)
  • Exploits (~4k HOWL available for an exploit)
  • Social engineering of the DAO

To report a bug or an exploit you’ve found, use the public-beta-bugs channel on Discord.
