Greetings to all! Today I'm back with the results of the giveaway I organized last week to celebrate the first development anniversary of Rising Star Utils. So let's get right to the important stuff before I share with you some other news.
Before starting with the giveaway, I will leave a reminder of the rules that had to be fulfilled to participate in the giveaway. I have taken the trouble to verify one by one, that they are fulfilled:
- Have an account on Rising Star Game (I will verify it manually, to avoid multiple entries from the same person)
- Follow my account on X (ex Twitter) and mateodm03 in Hive
- Comment and upload the image that you follow me on X and tag two people in this publication.
Here is the table with the participants that will be competing for the following prizes:
🥇 First prize: 6.000.000 STARBITS
🥈 Second prize: 4.000.000 STARBITS
🥉 Third prize: 2.000.000 STARBITS

I will use a web tool called Wheel of Names to provide the winners of this sweepstakes through a roulette format. I have recorded a video where I do the three spins to get the three winners:
First place: @ydaiznfts
Second place: @rubillo15
Third place: @jeffqt
Congratulations to the winners! Below, I will leave a screenshot of the transaction history from when I sent the rewards.
Leaving the subject of the sweepstakes, the news is that Rising Star Utils will not have ads for the time being. Unfortunately, we have been rejected from two projects for “content of no value” as if it were a blog. It only remains to see what AdSense says, but most likely they will end up rejecting the site.
It's pretty bad, since the implementation of ads, would help a lot to maintain the site, plus get a little extra income for the dedicated work. I also don't want to create a site that displays ads and distributes sexual content, viruses, or anything harmful. So I'll be thinking about finding a new way to monetize the site.
As for the site, I made some changes that came up during the development of the new frontend, and so far everything has been fixed. Also, I migrated the server to a VPS I already had, with the goal of reducing maintenance costs and improving the speed a bit, since it is now on a more powerful machine. The survival of the project is guaranteed until December of this year. After that date, if the profits do not compensate the maintenance, I will have to discontinue the project.
That's all for today, see you next time!
