Published on HivePostify by @stayoutoftherz · Wed Jul 15 2026
Dear chessfans!
The prizes from [Season 22](https://peakd.com/hive-157286/@stayoutoftherz/hivechess-season-22-finally-arrived) were in the mean time sent to the players, the final standings of which you can find [here](https://peakd.com/hive-157286/@stayoutoftherz/hivechess-season-22-final-results-maestroask-and-odic3o1-are-the-champions). In total the record-sum of 2637 Hive (last season it was 2350) have accumulated in the @badge-646464 account and were distributed among the 19 qualified participants. Plus 10000 MEDALS - thankfully sponsored by @blanchy - were (evenly) distributed. As a reminder, only players who had played at least 5 out of the 10 rounds were qualified for rewards.
Thanks a lot to all the countless upvoters and supporters of this season!
Here is the snapshot of the final prizepool of S22:
