On November 3, 2021, Ex Populus named the first Populus Cup winner and showed how verification reduced that entrant's invitation count from 383 to 213. It then set terms for the next champion announcement on November 10: 1 ETH if the community reached 5,000 verified members, or 0.05 ETH if it did not. Three runners-up were each offered 0.05 ETH in either case. The updated rules counted validated invitations rather than simple joins and warned against repeated cheating.
