Guys, either my math is bad or I don’t see something necessary. It’s as if the sum of the prizes is not $500,000, but $479,000. Can you check it? @Prince-Onscolo @Gordian @StevenTRON

Yes, you are correct the total prize distribution sum is 475k. However, the prizes are upto 500k. So, it means the prizepool may not be distributed completely if the projects fail to meet milestones. Also, there are some other prizes in form of giveaways that are done to promote the hackathon on twitter and other platform.
Your question is genuine, and I believe someone from Tron DAO should address this so we all can get some clarity on this.

Buena observación, consultaré a ver en que se basa el importe inicial y porque aparece el resultante menor.
Es importante saber ese diferencial a que es debido y donde se administra, en que funciones.
Gracias, por su información.

Thank you for the post @Jeager This is most likely due to our additional prizes such as Engagement Prizes and Contributor Prizes, but I would be happy to review

yeah you have to because all these prizes you mentioned have been added. I was thinking the remaining may be for promotional fees

The remainder are prizes for in-person hackathons being conducted on the builder TOUR in the USA. These aren’t awarded online but in-person at the events.
