Aptos Labs | Aptos Connect - Paylink Giveaway Official Rules

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN A PRIZE. A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING.

Overview: While supplies last, Participants will have a chance to claim 12.25 “🎁🎄” emojicoin tokens from Aptos Labs, the developer of the Aptos Connect wallet (“Aptos Connect”) by accessing an Aptos Connect Paylink URL posted on the social media platform X by Aptos Labs employees (the “Promotion”).

Promotion Period. The Promotion begins at 15:00 Pacific Time on December 18, 2024, and will continue until all the Prizes (as defined below) have been claimed (the “Promotion Period”).

Eligibility. Promotion is available only to those who are 18 or older (or of legal age of majority in their home jurisdiction) at the time of entry. Each recipient of a Prize must have or create an Aptos Connect Account to claim the Prize. “Restricted Persons” are ineligible to participate in the Promotion. Restricted Persons are those who are subject to sanctions administered or enforced by any country or government or otherwise designated on any list of prohibited or restricted parties (including but not limited to the lists maintained by the United Nations Security Council, the U.S. Government, the European Union or its Member States, or other applicable government authority) or a citizen or organization or resident in a country or territory that is the subject of country-wide or territory-wide sanctions (including, without limitation, Cuba, Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, the Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions, Iran, or Syria). For clarity, if you are a Restricted Person, you are prohibited from participating in the Promotion. Employees and their immediate family members (parents, children, siblings or spouse, regardless of where they live, and persons living in the same household, whether related or not) of Sponsor, its affiliates, and any other entities directly associated with the operation of this Promotion are not eligible to participate or win. Winning a prize is contingent upon compliance with these Official Rules and fulfilling all requirements set forth below. Void where prohibited by law.

How to Participate. In order to claim a Prize, each Participant must click on an active Paylink URL that is posted on X by an Aptos Labs employee and follow the directions to claim a Prize, which will include connecting their Aptos Connect Account or creating an Aptos Connect Account when prompted. If the Participant has native Aptos tokens in their Aptos Connect Account, like with all blockchain transactions, they will pay network gas fees to claim the Prize. If the Participant does not have native Aptos tokens in their Aptos Connect Account to pay for network gas fees then Aptos Labs will sponsor the network gas fees on behalf of the Participant. Participants who do not wish to pay network gas fees to claim a Prize can create a new Aptos Connect Account to claim a Prize.

Prizes. Participants who access an active Paylink distributed during the Promotion will be able to claim 12.25 “🎁🎄” emojicoin tokens on the Aptos blockchain (the “Prize”). As of December 18, 2024, the value of a Prize was $0.00083.

Drawing; Odds. The Promotion will consist of 100,000 Paylinks, each containing one Prize. Prizes will be claimed on a first come, first serve basis and Promotion will continue until all Prizes have been claimed. Participants are limited to claiming one Prize per Aptos Connect Account.
