Heads up about the recent $100 promo email 👋

[lekeboshnjaku]

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to clear up some confusion around the recent $100 bonus email that a few of us received.

Stake has confirmed that the email itself was sent in error — not that the site was hacked or that anything shady was going on. The important part is that promo eligibility is enforced server-side, not by the promo page or mirror links.

That’s why:

The promo page and mirror sites still load

The links look valid

But the bonus doesn’t actually apply to accounts that weren’t meant to receive it

This is pretty normal for large platforms — promo pages are usually pre-deployed and reused, while actual eligibility is controlled by backend flags tied to each account.

Stake also added 10% to the next weekly bonus as an apology, which confirms it was a marketing email automation issue, not a real active promo for everyone.

TL;DR

The email was the mistake, not the mirrors

A live promo page ≠ guaranteed eligibility

No exploit, no scam, no missed “secret” bonus

Compensation was already applied

Hope this saves some people time and stress 🙏
Good luck and gamble responsibly 🍀
