Is there also an official press release when we hit the 1.000.000.000 euro?

[De-Ker]

just passed that 1.000.000.000 mark!

[suntzu]

Is it possible to know who did it?

Whee

I'll have a look to see who is the lucky winner.. there's a surprise coming up..

Congratulations to KBC Eernegem for entering this note which made EBT pass the 1 000 000 000 euro milestone

As a surprise prize, that user will receive 1 000 000 000 dollars! Yeah, no kidding.

The only catch is that those dollars will be Zimbabwean dollars, thus the monetary value of the prize is approximately only a few eurocents. Have a look at the two 500 million ZWD bearer cheques that will be sent to the winner. I'll try to contact the winner to get his/her postal address.

Again, congratulations to everyone, keep up the good work

Avij, you do know that the ZIM. DOLLAR is devaluated since 1.august. 10 billion dollars became 1 dollar. So your price of 1.000.000.000 Zimbabwean dollers will actually quite some money still...

Or just wait a year with the deposit

I agree with this.

Yes, I've been keeping an eye on their economy for some time now.. If KBC Eernegem can convince some bank that these two 500 million ZWD bearer's cheques are worth, say, 76 million euro, then this will indeed be a rather handsome prize. Good luck with that, though

Or just wait a year with the deposit

That won't work, the cheques expire on 31st December 2008 (see the pics I posted above)
