16-Year-Old Wins 10 Bitcoins in Blockchain.info Giveaway

Popular bitcoin wallet provider Blockchain.info revealed via Twitter that Travis Wright, a 16-year-old and bitcoin entrepreneur from Duluth, Minnesota, has been named the grand prize winner of a contest to commemorate its 1 millionth user.
Blockchain.info announced the milestone on 7th January via its official blog, just two months after the wallet service passed 500,000 downloads. The service has seen more than 800% growth year-over-year: it had just over 110,000 registered users as of January 2013.
The company told CoinDesk it received 13,192 entries to the contest, which was open to anyone who liked the Blockchain.info Facebook page. It then used Rafflecopter to generate a winner using a Random.org number generator.
“We wanted to do it differently this time, so that all users could participate through Facebook or with an email address,” a spokesperson for Blockchain.info said.
