May 2026 MESSY Raffle: Final Prize Distribution
Published for transparency ahead of the June 15, 2026 snapshot and community payout.
This post documents how 2,000,000 $MESSY from the May 2026 raffle is distributed across eligible community wallets — eligibility rules, exclusions, and the final prize table.
Eligibility rules applied
The May 2026 campaign required wallets to:
- Buy $MESSY on a DEX on Base during May 1–31, 2026
- Stay net buyers through the month (buys ≥ sells + transfers out)
- Hold at least 80% of peak May balance at the June 15 snapshot
Tickets per qualifying buy: tickets = buy_usd − 100 (minimum $100 per transaction).
We reviewed 44 qualifying buy transactions across 13 unique wallet patterns using on-chain MESSY Transfer logs on Base (0x09f87f948c88848363b124c9099cbb58e4cc7cb6). A wallet entered the community prize pool only if it passed both checks:
| Rule | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Net buyer | May DEX buys ≥ May DEX sells + transfers out |
| 80% hold | June 15 balance ≥ 80% of peak May balance |
Allocation vs. original draw format
The published terms described 25 tiered winners drawn at random, weighted by tickets (1st: 1,000,000 MESSY; 2nd–5th: 250,000 each; 6th–25th: 50,000 each).
After the May audit, fewer than 25 community-eligible wallets qualified (team wallets excluded per terms). The DAO is distributing prizes as one award per eligible wallet, ranked by raffle tickets (highest to lowest): rank 1 receives 1,000,000 MESSY; ranks 2–5 each receive 250,000 MESSY. Positions 6–25 have no eligible winners.
Per the terms' Changes and Termination section, the campaign could have been cancelled if fewer than 10 eligible wallets qualified at snapshot; the DAO chose this tiered rank allocation instead and publishes it here as the material change, effective upon publication.
Prize pool: 3,000,000 MESSY originally allocated; 2,000,000 MESSY distributed across 5 eligible community wallets (9,529.29 community tickets total).

Excluded wallets
The following addresses are not in the community prize pool:
| Label | Address |
|---|---|
| Team member wallet | 0x584b03538c1c34cf58604964f7165300814c0e42 |
| Team member and fund manager | 0x1b69c4a788ad8f940e624341ab45c731d01190de |
| Protocol controller | 0x91041d881ed55a225e3497ea298026465ce65fe8 |
| Qualifying swap tx.from (holds no $MESSY) | 0x00000000de6a614f1ad2c4553ff7508671788da6 |
| Qualifying swap tx.from (holds no $MESSY) | 0x025a9c987abc1d04f15335e0d2f8dde3e246a7ae |
| Qualifying swap tx.from (holds no $MESSY) | 0xf0523316cf23ef167d874fa030b2214280e38ee6 |
| Qualifying swap tx.from (holds no $MESSY) | 0xef896ef08ff145bc4b457174edece658ea902df7 |
Team-associated wallets are excluded per the official raffle terms. The four tx.from addresses generated tickets from qualifying May swaps but hold no $MESSY at those addresses — tokens settled elsewhere — so they are excluded from payouts.
