Where the other 153,145 golden tickets came from is a bit of a mystery, as they did not place in the top 10 during any of the other monthly contests. They either bought them, which makes no sense (why would you pay millions of dollars to win $200K?) or won them on the wheel of fortune, which seems highly unlikely (you would need millions of WOF spins to win that many tickets).
It is impossible to win such a huge number of golden tickets from the Wheel of Fortune because users average 1-2 golden tickets for 2-3 thousand spins. At least, I have this impression based on the results of some users who accumulated and spun a few thousand spins and then published their results in this thread.
As for the winner, he could wager much less than we assume because he may well have done it at a time when freebitcoin held a promotion similar to the one it is running now ("3 golden tickets for every 500k sats that you wager").
Most likely that should be the case because all other explanations do not make that much sense.I don't know if when your refs wager you get commission here,I believe it is 20% commission but whatever the amount still you need an insane amount of refs and many of them to be whales in order to get so many tickets.
Whatever the case congrats to the winner of this round Lambo which it looks is not from our forum this time.
