And results for RuCTFE 2020 competition:
— RuCTFE 2020 competition results
— RuCTFE 2020 rating on CTFTime
Great amended proposal. Clear value add. Full support.
So we have some updates since our last post.
We reformed the proposal and this time it’s going to be about the RuCTFE 2020 Competition only.
For now, we decided to focus on the competition-part itself. RuCTFE 2020 is a top-level information security event. A lot of highly qualified players participate in it so it is a great opportunity to promote FreeTON and engage the players in meeting the platform.
Here is the financial plan for this event. Also, an additional proposal for the RuCTFE Conference is coming soon.
| Stage | Dates | How much | For what | KPI description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RuCTFE Step 1 | Up front (26 December 2020) | 5,000 Free TON Crystal | Organizational costs (servers, cloud hosting, etc) | - We have successfully conducted the competition. - We were able to get over 100 active teams with results above zero points. This means that several hundred players learned about the Free TON system to get their reward. In addition to this, each team that had received the “Welcome bonus” would be involved in the Crystal distribution process. Some playing teams may include professional CTF players. - We have mentioned the Free TON project in our social media. The exact number of posts and information in them should be discussed with our PR department. |
| RuCTFE Step 2 | 27 December 2020 | 15,000 Free TON Crystal | The reward for successful contest hosting | RuCTFE organization team received its reward (minus a deduction toward contest’ organization) |
| RuCTFE Step 3 | 28 December 2020 – 1 April 2021 | 50,000 Free TON Crystal | CTF players’ reward | All playing teams have received their rewards. The rewarding process of all participants was completed by April 1, 2021 |
Total 70,000 Free TON Crystal
We plan to allocate 125 winning places. Here’s Free TON Crystal distribution plan among winning places:
1 place: 8192
2 place: 4096
3 place: 2048
4 place: 1024
5 place: 950
6 place: 900
7 place: 850
8 place: 800
9–82 places: 840 - (place * 10)
83 place and below: 10
47,780 Free TON Crystal total.
The remaining [50,000 - 47,780] = 2,220 Free TON Crystal is planned to be spent on Firstblood, Bugbounty or [by the jury’ decision] any other special bonuses achieved by the playing teams. Every team can only take one place.
This is much more reasonable. This works. Good job!
Hi everyone, it’s team HackerDom!
We’d like to present you a quick KPI report for Free TON Community members.
On December 26, we have successfully conducted the competition and got over 125 active teams with results above zero points. More information on results you can find on the scoreboard: https://ctftime.org/event/1178. We have made a few posts about Free TON on our social media
In the end of March we received Free TON Crystals and started the rewarded process. We also rewarded teams of developers and organizers - in sum, there were about 20 people who was working on the competition (https://ructfe.org/devteam/).
The rewarding process is almost completed so far, there are only few team left that haven’t sent us their wallet addresses or haven’t deployed their wallets. All the other teams received their rewards by 1st May 2021.
Once more, we’d like to thank Free TON for this partnership experience. We also hope, we would make more cool projects together in the future!
