congrats on building something dope @tsiz! awesome to see your vision come to life. feels like one of those rare moments of instant product-market fit tbh. 🧵 @relayer just served me an ad in a farcaster frame that was tailored to me based on my wallet history. i was offered a $5 incentive to try out @insrt... 1/

So i took the bait, dove down the rabbit hole, and here's what I found: @insrt is a provably fair casino w/ clean UI where you spin the wheel to win a prize. Odds are actually pretty decent, and if you don’t win the top prize, you still win $MINT, @insrt's token which accrues more value each time users spin. 2/

3/ I did some quick napkin math on the odds, and was pleased to see that many of the collections had reasonable odds of 1:1 to 1:2, basically a 50% - 100% probability of positive ROI, 1-2 orders of magnitude better than lottery tickets. And that’s before factoring in the MINT earned from each spin 👀

I even found 1 with positive ROI, an mfer worth .76 ETH, with .01 ETH spin price and 1 in 75 odds of winning.

..insrt lets you mint multiple spins in a single tx. Once I had spent .1 ETH, I was committed to spinning until I won. Fortunately it did not take 75 spins, and after about 20 or so spins (I lost count 😅), that mfer was MINE 🏆 🎉 5/

So to recap, I more than tripled my principal, earned 17.5K $MINT that I will def be holding, and most importantly, had a lot of fun and got to learn about and play with 2 cool dapps. Not bad for monday morn! If anyone is reading this, you’ll recall this cast started with a h/t to @tsiz for building @relayer... 6/

This W would not have happened if @relayer hadn’t presented @insrt to me let alone offered me a small, but motivating $5 incentive. I first heard about @relayer about 7 months ago when @jacksanyoda introduced me to the @tsiz to explore integration with @undefined. 7/

I was immediately a believer in the concept because I loved the idea of giving ShapeShift users cool “missions” where they could earn rewards for exploring the decentralized universe in a way that generates revenue for the DAO without costing the user anything (we had just done this with 20k users & 300k OP) 8/
