How a round works

1. Goal wallet. Contributions are USDC transfers on Solana to a wallet owned by Mike, who runs this site. Wallet: HXeijhmHirGGp2G112QvwFsQCYEQKQTEExwijZXaCkyC (its USDC account: FdkUsavdzVKodGEDh6QBcGaCZiSV7eM7CTLNLPKWUSZP). The meter is the sum of the transfers the site has read from the chain for the current round; it is not a number anyone typed.
2. Contribute to enter. Send at least 1 USDC during an open round from a wallet you control, with the Phantom button above or from any wallet or exchange that withdraws USDC on Solana. Your wallet is your entry. Amount does not matter for the draw: a 1 USDC contributor and a 100 USDC contributor have exactly the same chance. One entry per wallet; sending twice does not add a second entry.
3. Freeze. When the round reaches $200 USDC, the site records the current slot and announces a draw slot 150 slots later (about a minute). Entries are fixed at that moment; anything that arrives afterwards counts for the next round.
4. Draw. The first finalized block at or after the draw slot decides. Winner index = blockhash mod contributors, with the 32-byte block hash read as one big integer and contributors ordered by their first contribution. The hash and the list are public, so anyone can recompute the result; nobody, including us, can influence a future block hash. This runs automatically from the site's cron.
5. Payout. Mike sends $200 USDC from the goal wallet to the winning wallet by hand (subscriptions cannot be transferred, so the money is paid out, not the account) and records the transaction signature here. The next round opens automatically.

Tipping never changes reset access or Anthropic usage limits. Winning here does not change anything about anyone's Claude account or Anthropic's limits; it pays for a plan.

What you are trusting

There is no smart contract holding the money. Contributions land in a dedicated treasury wallet controlled by Mike, and the payout is a manual transfer from that wallet. The site can read the chain but cannot move a cent. The draw itself needs no trust: the contributor list, the draw slot, the block hash and the winner index are all published, and the block hash is produced by the Solana network, not by us. If trusting one person with the pool is more than you are comfortable with, please do not contribute.

Rules

• An entry is a wallet whose USDC transfers to the goal wallet during an open round add up to at least 1 USDC. One entry per wallet regardless of amount or number of transfers.
• Contributions are final. They fund the payout of the round they land in; when a round is cancelled, they roll into the next one.
• The prize is $200 USDC sent to the winning wallet, intended for one month of Claude Max 20x.
• The goal wallet itself can never win. Any other wallet that contributes, including the operator's personal one, is an ordinary entry.
• Send from a wallet you control. If you contribute from an exchange account, the exchange's wallet is the entry and a payout to it may not reach you.
• This project is independent and not affiliated with or endorsed by Anthropic. Winning pays for a plan; it does not change any account or limit.
• Local law applies to you; if community pools of this kind are restricted where you live, do not participate.

Verify it yourself

• Every contribution and the wallet balance: the goal wallet on Solscan.
• Live status as JSON: /api/v1/goal; the contributor list in draw order: /api/v1/goal/contributors.
• Draw block hash: open the announced block on the explorer and compute hash mod contributors (decode the base58 hash to 32 bytes, read them as a big-endian integer).
• Source code: the public repository; the sync, freeze and draw logic lives in src/routes/goal.ts.

Roadmap

What is live, what is being switched on, and what comes after. Nothing here promises more than work.

1. Live

   The tracker

   September 2026
   • clauderesets.com live: every publicly announced Claude usage-limit reset, verified against the original post.
   • Sources directory, calendar and countdown, five languages, JSON API, RSS/JSON feeds, MCP server.
   • Open source under MIT; every event carries its source link and revision history.
2. Switching on

   Community goal

   September 2026
   • Readers pool USDC on Solana; one wallet is one entry, whatever the amount.
   • Contribute with Phantom in one tap, or send USDC to the published address from any wallet.
   • When the pool reaches the target the winner is drawn automatically by a finalized Solana block hash; the contributor list and the hash are public.
   • The winner is paid one month of Claude Max 20x in USDC, and the next round opens by itself.
3. Next

   Faster pings

   Q4 2026
   • Browser push and Telegram alerts the moment a reset is published.
   • More watched accounts and a public review log for every source check.
4. Later

   Growth

   2027
   • Community-proposed goals beyond Max 20x (API credits, Team seats) chosen by contributors.
   • Sponsor slots to cover hosting, so the tracker stays free.
   • The tracker stays independent and ad-free; no forecasts, no account access, ever.
