New announcement from 0xmgb in Discord:

The trading competition is officially over!

The final leaderboard update will be going up momentarily 👀

More info about how to claim prizes will come in the next message after the leaderboard update.
New announcement from 0xmgb in Discord:

**Final leaderboard update is done!**

The leaderboard in docs is **locked in and finalized** -- if you placed in the *top 5*, please DM either *@variational_io* or *@ 0xMGB* on Twitter to provide identification and claim your prize. You have *1 week* to get in touch before the prize is forfeited.

If you placed in the *top 100*, you'll be receiving a special commemorative NFT within the next few days. You don't need to do anything for this -- it will just appear in the wallet you competed with on the Arbitrum network. Don't lose it! 😉

We want to sincerely thank everyone for participating! This was the first real event we've done on the platform, and we think things went incredibly well. We'll definitely be doing more trading competitions soon -- let us know in <#1197568193313640509> what prizes you want to see for the next ones!

GM Variants!

Just wanted to jump in to share that I'm going to start hosting a **weekly Office Hour here in the Variational Discord** to answer questions and get to know everyone better! These will be super casual calls where anyone can join and ask questions or just vibe in the chat.

I tried to pick a time that's good for as many time zones as possible, but let me know if you have any other times you'd prefer, and I'll see what I can do.

First office hour will be *next Tuesday at 9am CST*. I hope to see a lot of y'all there! ❤️
