The Wednesday Challenge

Every Wednesday a new round of QWERTY Words goes live, with the bounty announced up front. Everyone gets the exact same tiles. You get 10 turns to build the highest score you can. Top score when the round closes takes the bounty.

Why Wednesday?

We held a vote among the six keys. Q has no day. E, R and Y don’t either, and they’re still upset about it. T has Tuesday and Thursday, couldn’t pick one, and was disqualified for greed. That left W, the only key in QWERTY with a whole day to itself.

W gets Wednesday. The rest of the keys get to watch. (Also, Wednesday has a silent D, and we respect anything that holds quietly.)

How scoring works

Keys are worth points by their row on the keyboard: top row (Q to P) 1 point, home row (A to L) 2 points, bottom row (Z to M) 3 points. Shift doubles a letter, Caps Lock doubles a word, Enter triples a word, but only on the turn you cover them.

The six QWERTY letters are gold keys. Play a word with 3 or more gold keys in it for a +10 Golden Keys bonus. Use all 7 of your keys in one turn for a +20 Full Keyboard bonus.

Words go left to right or top to bottom, must connect to keys already on the board, and every word you make has to be a real English word. Swapping all your keys uses up a turn.

  • A new round opens every Wednesday and closes the following Tuesday at 11:59 PM ET.
  • The highest verified score wins that week’s bounty. If scores tie, the earliest entry wins.
  • Practise as much as you like. You enter by signing in with your wallet, and only your first run per wallet each round counts.
  • The bounty is announced before each round opens and is fixed for that week. It may change from week to week as the price of $QWERTY moves.
  • Every run is replayed on our server before it reaches the leaderboard. A run code copied from another player doesn’t count.
  • The challenge is open to everyone. Holder tiers show as badges and don’t change scores.
  • The winner and their score are posted here when the round closes, and the bounty is sent to the wallet that submitted the winning run, on Robinhood Chain.

⚠️ Read before you sign in

Your wallet will show a plain-text message that starts with “qwertytoken.com wants you to sign in”. Signing it only proves you own the wallet. It doesn’t send a transaction, approve tokens or cost gas.

Check the website name. Only sign if the message names the site in your address bar. If a sign-in names any other site, or your wallet asks you to approve tokens, confirm a transaction or pay gas, stop: it isn’t us.

Prizes go to the wallet you sign in with, on Robinhood Chain. Use a wallet you control, not an exchange account.

We will never ask for your recovery phrase or private key, ask you to approve tokens or send a transaction, or DM you about a prize. Anyone who does, including someone pretending to be us, is a scammer.

The lore

In the 1870s, Christopher Latham Sholes rearranged the typewriter keys to stop the metal arms from jamming. He put six letters in the top-left corner and walked away. He had no idea what he’d started.

For 150 years, QWERTY sat there in plain sight. Every essay, every password, every angry email to customer service, every “asdfghjkl” typed in frustration. It powered the internet and it never asked for a thing.

You learned it before you could spell. You’ve pressed these keys more times than you’ve blinked at a chart. Technically, you’ve been accumulating QWERTY your entire life. You were early. You were always early.

Fun fact: “TYPEWRITER” can be typed using only the top row of letters. Sholes left that in as an easter egg, or as a sign. We choose sign.

Questions people keep typing

Why QWERTY?

It’s the most-pressed brand in human history and it has zero marketing budget. Huge untapped potential.

Is Dvorak a threat?

We don’t talk about Dvorak. Twelve people use it and they’ll tell you about it within five minutes of meeting you.

What about AZERTY?

Our French cousins. Same energy, different croissant. We respect them from a distance.

What’s the utility?

You can type with it. That’s more than most meme coins can say.

Wen moon?

When enough people press the right six keys at the same time.

Is this financial advice?

No. This is a website about the top-left corner of a keyboard. Do your own research.
