# Trees Raffles

## Raffles&#x20;

Every week there will be an NFT prize and an $Avax prize.&#x20;

Two winners will be drawn - first place takes the NFT and 50% of the $Avax, and second place takes the other 50% of the $Avax.&#x20;

## Our intention

Our intention is to start with the first week being a prize of the NFT and 0.5 $Avax, Week 2 being an NFT and a prize of 1.0 $Avax, Week 3 being a prize of 1.5 $Avax, and will continue this for as long as the number of entrants/treasury build up continues.

Once the accumulation of $Avax levels out, the prize will stabilise. (But the Plant A Tree Team reserves the right to reduce the prize should the expected prize be lower than that currently in the raffle treasury).&#x20;

Tree NFT Holders will be able to enter raffles by using their $PAT tokens. The cost per entry for tree holders will be 300 $PAT + 0.05 $Avax. The $PAT submitted will be burnt, and the $Avax will be stored in the raffle wallet, accumulating each week for the NFT prizes and building the $Avax prize pot.

### So for example, the following would apply:

300 $PAT + 0.05 $Avax = 1 Raffle Ticket 🎟&#x20;

600 $PAT + 0.1 $Avax = 2 Raffle Tickets 🎟&#x20;

900 $PAT + 0.15 $Avax = 3 Raffle Tickets 🎟 <br>

Draws will be carried out in our Discord Server once a week, using a third party Raffle Bot to ensure random selection of winners. The first person drawn will always be considered “first place” (NFT + 50% of $Avax) and the second person drawn will get the “second place” (50% of $Avax) prize. The same person will not be able to win both first and second prizes in any one week.
