The block in which the above post is included has a merkle root of 18daba938646a5ee0d217e5facce23717b407649.
The last two digits of this root are used to determine if there is a winner. Ending in 0 gives an upvote and ending in 00 means the jackpot was cracked. The remaining digits determine which ticket wins. To do this we compute the residual after dividing the root by the number of virtual tickets. In this case this would be:
18daba938646a5ee0d217e5facce23717b4076 = 554271851711822058138702668353115019728863350 in base 10. The residual after dividing by the number of shares (455) is 430. Therefore ticket number 430 would win.

This time the root does not end in 0 and thus there is no winner in this drawing. The post will be upvoted to increase the jackpot
