Wyze is hosting a treasure hunt and has been posting another mysterious clue each day.
A YouTube live stream points at the treasure's location.
Following the YouTube chat (when I can find time) is fascinating. Many of the participants work together in trying to figure out the clues and freely share what was figured out so far. I find that so nice to see, as I would have instead expected people to be trying to figure it out on their own or in small private groups, so as to be able to claim one of the two prizes for themselves.
The people in the chat figured out the first clue has something to do with "friends", which makes sense now when I re-read the clue. I definitely didn't figure that out when I was puzzling over the clue yesterday.
They've narrowed the treasure location down to Vashon island in Washington state (though someone else mentioned Tacoma, which is nearby). The livestream cam has the sound of airplanes. They mentioned checking the flight paths of airplanes to figure out the location.

The livestream has showed rain in the location yesterday and today, which matches up with what I've seen on the Ventusky weather map.
Only the northwest U.S. had rain yesterday, which agrees with the location being in Washington state.
