🎁 And a bonus for the ones who were so close - $50 worth of WAL each

We were so impressed with everything you have been building that we added a bonus prize for people who came really close to winning in App, Promo, Bug or Article. You will get a little something:
@ga8471 @ksschkw @gunroarcannon @raffny @dauniz @elfarizi02 @veevee_89 @choviy @bgstr @jeielsantos @OlympusXVN @ar1ma @eazitech

Something I want you all to consider, it is not always about building the most technical thing. A simple product with a great use case is just as valuable and a reason why portable memory makes sense. Also, try to build something you want to use, worst case you have 1 user

Reviewing all of the projects was an amazing job and deciding the winners was a really tough one!

We are also considering a community choice: a top list where the community votes for a winner, like we had before. We cannot expect you all to test 70+ projects, so it would be a shortlist. Let us know what you think!

Thank you all. Keep building and good luck with #channel !
