The site prominently displays a ticking counter of visitors’ winnings since 1995, but viewing the site through a foreign proxy reveals that the number isn’t exchange-rate accurate, just arbitrarily set somewhere in the 33,000,000.00+ range, regardless of currency or region. This works in Dollars, Euros, Pounds, and Kroner.
