Here are some numbers and extra info about rallying:
Rallying is possible even on some VPNs. I use mullvad because it's paid in btc. Got a captcha once but it seems to remember I'm human and have rallied many times without captchas now. My internet speed is good though.
Rallying costs 200 gems. The *average* return is 858 gems. The catch is that only 70% of participants get the return. That's 600 return on average - a comfy 3x.
However holding sOLE gives you a 3x and holding a share of the space you rallied in gives you another 3x (for a total of 6x). I've received anywhere from 3k to 7k on the 6x boost.
Normally you can rally twice a day, but if you hold sOLE you can rally 4 times a day. The reset is 00:00 UTC. That is also when shareholders get their gems (25% of what the space made equally distributed per share). For the last 2 days I got 2000 gems for holding 1 share, however Pacmoon admin said it gives you 1000 gems. Could be outdated info, IDK.
00:00 UTC is also when the rallies start and there is a new one every 2 hours.
Each one lasts 15 min and you can rally at 2:14 and claim the reward at 2:15. However since many people join at that time you can have a chance to chat with the admins, receive gem airdrops (claimed like rallies) or gift (sent by the admin) and claim OLE when someone trades shares.
The Pacmoon space routinely gives airdrops. Also the admins seem to gift a few hundred to thousands gems to people that:
- Buy/hold a lot of PAC
- Stake PAC on wasabi
- Buy shares
It's not worth it to do any of this just for 2k or so gems but if you are planning to do it anyway make sure the admin sees you (send screenshot of wasabi stake).
Hey all- I attempted to bridge additional ETH from ETH Mainnet to Blast via https://blast.io/en/bridge. Rather than bridge the ETH, it transferred ETH from my Blast balance to the address below. Blast support on discord said "its not possible" and nothing can be done. Assuming I screwed something up--not sure how. Any ideas how this is possible?
Hey, let's see if DeFi team can help you get your money back.
First, 0x3a05E5d33d7Ab3864D53aaEc93c8301C1Fa49115 is the address of the official Blast deployer on Ethereum *Mainnet*. However, looking up this address on Blast reveals that 78 people have mistakenly sent a total of 10 ETH to that address.
Even more interestingly, these aren't simple transfers, someone is calling bridgeERC20 function, which is strange because this is an EOA, not a smart contract (i.e. it doesn't have any code to call). The Blast state isn't updated with these calls (except to debit gas).
This has me a bit foxed, so I reached out to our resident smart contract expert BowTiedPickle. He says that the Blast team should theoretically be able to deploy a contract with the deployer keys on the Blast L2 to recover the funds.
We're discussing internally how to best get this on the team's radar, sorry you've been fobbed off in the Discord. At the very least they should have a) noticed its the same contract address as their L1 contract and b) notice that there are other users affected, including not just simple transfers but function calls. Just can't get the staff these days...
My first hunch is that some of their frontend code is missing a check and this could occur when you try to bridge to blast while your wallet is connected to blast instead of Ethereum mainnet. Can you remember *exactly* what you did, walk us through each step of the transaction?
Hey thanks in advance for the help. To the best of what I remember, this is what happened: I had previously bridged some ETH the day prior, so I had an ETH balance on Blast. I am using a Trezor with Metamask and Firefox (on a windows laptop). I had already signed into the wallet and had been using it across some dapps. To do the additional bridge, I first went to https://blast.io/en/bridge. I *beleive* that the wallet was connected to Blast, so the "Submit" button in the Blast UI was defaulted to "Switch to Ethereum Mainnet." I clicked "Switch..." in the Blast UI and then confirmed the network switch in the Metamask popup. When I switched networks in the wallet, the button on the Blast UI switched back to "Submit," I entered the ETH amount, and then hit "Submit." From there, the Metamask modal popped asking to confirm, and I followed the normal signing process. I don't recall anything abnormal about the signing process (based on the very few times I have to compare it too). As soon as the signing was complete, I clicked onto the "Airdrop" tab in Blast.io and noticed that my Blast balance had been reduced by the amount I attempted to bridge. I then checked my ETH Maininet balance and saw that it was untouched. I then checked Metamask, but do not remember what network the wallet was connected to immediately after the bridge attempt. But eventually I realized that the attmpted transaction was recorded in the Blast network transaction history in Metamask, and showed a confirmed Send transaction to the address shared above.
I think your hypothesis is correct that it attempted the bridge while I was connect to Blast network somehow. But, not sure how or when I switched back to Blast from ETH during the process.
Can you persist with the support channels giving the extra information we surfaced for you? Right now we're reaching out through our network to get people interested in the problem and get a direct line to the Blast team but that's moving slowly.
I bought the share of the Pacmoon room, and did the 3x boost for the 0.05 ETH too. What is the best way to max out the room share ownership, just be in there and click on stuff from time to time? Is it just that simple?
HELP! When I click the sOLE button, it shows "LOCK LP INTO sOLE", and a balance of 5ETH, with a zapping cost of 0.05 ETH. I'm scared to click it because i don't want my whole 5 eth to get locked into this. Am I missing anything as a way to get sOLE or get the boost?
Was wondering what the daily checking in to click stuff is about. Believe it's this: "After all of this you should accrue fees/click a bunch of claims and be free rolling after about 2 weeks"
Is there a need to rush and click the Claims? Like is there an expiry time?
Good post Brain. I'm doing all of the things + rallying however this one goes over my head, could you elaborate please:
"When you see a new major chat open, sell your OLE ASAP, wait 60minutes and rebuy it on Thruster. The 15% move is net positive for you since the cost of everything is around 4%"
What's the quickest way to know when a new app get's released on BLAST? I've been trying to figure out how to get ahead of the masses on new app launches but just haven't been able to find a way. Thanks!

I guess we need to buy OLE to be able to trade back and forth, on top, how do we get more gems to join spaces? I only got 750 gems
Really? will try to figure it out now get back to you later
I only got 750 gems when joining yesterday…
I have the 1000 pacmoon but can’t figure out how to join the group, do I also need to have the 1000 gems?
Yeah, I got 1000 and had to buy a share and wait until the reset before I had 200 for rallies.
I joined on March 26 and got 890 gems (put in just over 100$).
Okay think we might start a small space and just gift out gems so we can get you guys in
Same <1k gems, thx Brain
I joined a rally but couldn't acquire more gems since I wasn't officially in the room due to <1k gems. How do I buy more gems to enter a chat room?
You can just vote in prime and get 3,000 gems a day
I got in after figuring out the rally’s. Definitely like the idea of a small space to help the jungle. Will save a lot of time.
Interesting! Just signed up with your link, Brain.
Is it okay if the Bowtied community daisychains referrals? My code is:

Yeah pretty much just click and write something once and a while. If you have twitter make a meme and get pacmoon as well.
If you were early you're already set probably if you're late not sure and you're now reliant on pacmoon marketing
HELP! When I click the sOLE button, it shows "LOCK LP INTO sOLE", and a balance of 5ETH, with a zapping cost of 0.05 ETH. I'm scared to click it because i don't want my whole 5 eth to get locked into this. Am I missing anything as a way to get sOLE or get the boost?
The cost is 5 OLE not ETH. its like $7-8 plus fees so maybe $10
Was wondering what the daily checking in to click stuff is about. Believe it's this: "After all of this you should accrue fees/click a bunch of claims and be free rolling after about 2 weeks"
Is there a need to rush and click the Claims? Like is there an expiry time?
Thx
For airdrops in general they expire in 1-2 weeks
For D1 not entirely sure they seem to vest over 2 weeks
Good post Brain. I'm doing all of the things + rallying however this one goes over my head, could you elaborate please:
"When you see a new major chat open, sell your OLE ASAP, wait 60minutes and rebuy it on Thruster. The 15% move is net positive for you since the cost of everything is around 4%"
When a new space launches, people have to buy tons of OLE to acquire the shares
This means OLE price goes up, so you sell your OLE and wait for the buying frenzy to stop, price goes down and rebuy it all
Probably too complicated to most but once you see it it'll be obvious esp when YOLO goes into D1
OK, so I’m not that retarded just took the “ASAP” too literally (thought you meanASAP even before the price pumps)
What's the best strategy here: focus just on one chat? Maybe two?
Also, is having more shares in a chat really cost effective or one is enough?
Already in the post ser, was just pacmoon which went up some 100%+
Great post Brain, have been enjoying DistrictOne tremendously so far
Low risk medium/high point/gold return so should be okay
What's the quickest way to know when a new app get's released on BLAST? I've been trying to figure out how to get ahead of the masses on new app launches but just haven't been able to find a way. Thanks!
Discord, twitter, in the chat rooms on district 1, everything is public
Hi, I did lock up some sOle three weeks back when Districtone was new on Blast, but I dont my points getting boosted. Any idea why?
They get boosted on the claims in the chat
Absolute madness. I love it.
I heard middle aged cooks at my local pizza shop talking about buying DOGE... Time to sell? Lol
No clue! Just trying to focus on items everyone got for free so there is no downside risk
If all our PAC and JCE are staked can we still enter chat rooms?
Won't let me even though I hold plenty of each but they are all staked. Anyone else with this issue?
You'd need about $40 and $50 of each
Done. I did a swap in Thruster and was able to join. An FYI for the community that staked/sold all their airdrops.
how much PAC and gems you had in order to be able to join?
1000 PAC and 1000 gems.
I've already earned the gems back + in the Rally's and airdrops.
How do I earn more gems?i think im stuck with 750gems without having access to any channel
Staking allows you to chat and participate in a Rally. Try camping a channel and pick off an airdrop. (not a rally)
I got some OLE this am surfing a channel I had not staked.
You can also buy a share using ETH in a channel. Shareholders earn gems daily.
I thought pac is just to join their chat room, and not for other Dapps
