There’s a $1m crypto jackpot up for grabs this week, as Lucky Block launches new prize draws.
A further $1m will also be dished out in a separate NFT draw, for owners of Lucky Block NFTs.
Ticket sales for the $1m crypto jackpot prize draw will begin on Monday 30 May, with the winner both announced and paid at 8pm on Tuesday.
The winner of the NFT draw will receive their prize at the same time, offering what Lucky Block says is ‘probably the best chance on offer anywhere of becoming a millionaire’.
Around 2500 NFTs have been sold for 3.75 WBNB apiece, each offering free entry for life into the daily NFT draw.

Following the huge main draw, a daily main prize draw will begin on 6 June.
Terence Ribaudo, Lucky Block’s head of product, said: “We are focused on creating cutting edge Web3 experiences, and bringing the best of the gaming and entertainment world to attract and reward new users into the space through multi-channel marketing.

“By utilising the best of blockchain technologies, and delivering experiences that people with no crypto experience can enjoy, we will build a new ecosystem that will benefit not just us, but the entire Web3 community.”
A live-streamed launch party with American rap star Swae Lee will take place on Lucky Block’s social media pages from 7pm on Tuesday 31 May, ahead of the announcement of the first draw winners.

Lucky Block says there’s been a ‘frenzy’ of interest across both the crypto space and among ordinary consumers about the prize draws, which total $2m in LBLOCK tokens.

In part, that’s down to the free entry ticket option for the main prize draw.
For the first draw, anyone who holds more than $500 worth of LBLOCK tokens when a snapshot of the blockchain is taken in the 24-hour period before the draw, will be entitled to one free ticket.
Consumers will also gain a free entry by sending in a postcard.
There’s no upper limit on the number of tickets that can be bought for the jackpot prize draw.
The price of LBLOCK tokens – which can now be purchased with ordinary money – has risen nearly 100% in the past seven days in anticipation of the prize draws, to $0.00279.
Since last week visitors to the website have been able to buy LBLOCK using their credit or debit card.
Lucky Block has now launched its web app as the third leg of its consumer adoption strategy.
The web app is available to anyone with an internet-enabled device.

Daisy Jackson
JD are celebrating the return of the Nike Air Max 95 ‘OG Neon’ with a major giveaway, hiding pairs of the limited trainers inside InPost lockers at the Trafford Centre.
There’ll be a chance for Mancs to unlock exclusive prizes, including those iconic shoes, plus Air Max 95 jackets, pants, and t-shirts.
JD started teasing the drop of the Neons last week, with a video of a stock room filled with Air Max boxes and a crew packing.
Then details started dropping too, with Liverpool grime star Kasst 8 revealing himself as the sender.
In the campaign, the unapologetically Northern artist appears stationed on JD x Nike Air Max branded lockers, firing off texts reading ‘I’ll be there soon’, ‘SHIPPED OUT’, and ‘Check your InPost’.
And now JD has revealed its major competition with Nike, giving you the chance to bag a pair of Air Max 95 OG Neons.
Special Air Max branded InPost lockers will be stationed in-store at JD at the Trafford Centre (and at Liverpool One), each one stuffed with Air Max shoes and apparel.
To be in with a chance of unlocking a locker, you just need to submit your details HERE.
Then select winners will be chosen from a random draw and sent a unique code, which you can take to your chosen locker and reveal what you’ve won.
The Air Max 95 OG Neons are an iconic shoe designed by Sergio Lozano, with a human anatomy-inspired design that includes ribcage laces and vibrant neon accents against grey gradients.
JD have been teasing the launch of this campaign, with the Air Max 90 and 95 Neons dropping in-store and online on Thursday 5 March.
If you missed last year’s Air Max OG Neon drop, JD’s throwing you a lifeline.
Enter before 9am on Tuesday 3 March HERE for your chance to unlock – winners will be picked at random and contacted this week to collect at JD Manchester Trafford Centre.
Manchester’s new aesthetics clinic with a budget-friendly tiered pricing model
The Manc
There’s a new medically–led aesthetics clinic in the heart of Manchester, which offers a tiered pricing model that will get you the right treatment at a price that suits your budget.
The Academy Clinic has opened up on Quay Street, specialising in natural, balanced results with a massive range of injectable and cosmetic dermatology treatments
The clinic was founded by Dr Tristan Mehta, Dr Emily Mehta, and Dr Marcus Mehta, who want to raise the standards of injectable and cosmetic dermatology treatments across the UK.
It’s part of Harley Academy, the UK’s leading provider of postgraduate training in aesthetic medicine.
And that’s what sets it apart from a lot of other clinics in the UK, and makes it a stand-out in an industry that is largely unregulated – at The Academy Clinic you won’t ever be treated by non-medics or anyone without formal medical training.
It means that you are always in the hands of a registered medical professional – whether it be practitioner or trainee, and doctor, nurse, dentist or clinical pharmacist – who would be able to manage complications, so you can feel confident you’re in the best hands.

And the tiered treatment model really does suit every patient’s budget and preferences – you can take a more affordable treatment option, where qualified medical professionals are learning and being upskilled with expert supervision during your treatment; or you can opt for a fully private experience with a senior practitioner and no training elements involved.
There’s a wide range of treatments available, including popular injectable skin treatments such as Profhilo® and Profhilo Structura®, polynucleotides, dermal fillers, microneedling, HydraFacial and more, all designed to deliver natural-looking, confidence-boosting results.
Beyond patient care, The Academy Clinic’s clinical team also trains and mentors medical professionals through its GMC-registered aesthetics training academy, Harley Academy.
Dr Tristan Mehta, Founder & CEO of The Academy Clinic and Harley Academy, said: “Our mission has always been to raise standards in aesthetics. By combining education with patient care, we can ensure treatments are delivered safely, ethically, and with natural results.
Treatments include HydraFacials
“Bringing The Academy Clinic to Manchester means more people can access medically-led aesthetics with confidence.”
The Academy Clinic is now open at St John’s Court on Quay Street in Manchester, having acquired SkinViva last October.
To keep up to date with the latest news and promotions, you can follow The Academy Clinic on Instagram @theacademyclinic. For bookings or enquiries, call 0161 865 1141, visit theacademyclinic.co.uk or email [email protected].
Exclusive offer for The Manc readers: Use code MANC25 at the time of booking or when in clinic for 25% off any treatments excluding wrinkle reduction treatments.
