“Snapshot has been taken, but where is my airdrop?”

Does this sound familiar?

Don't worry, #LUNAtics.

By the end of this thread, you’ll know everything to avoid being in this baffling situation.

But first, you must understand what a snapshot is & how it works. 👇 Image
A snapshot is a record of all the details of a block.

This includes wallet addresses, token balances, transaction details, etc.

Your staked $LUNA would be eligible for airdrops only if your wallet & balance appear on the snapshot.

So, how do you ensure you don't miss it?
Step 1: Go to terra.smartstake.io.

Look for the menu on the right top side.

Click the following option: Image
Step 2: Click on any token.

A drop-down will appear with all the details of the snapshot & the airdrop.

For example, let’s click on Anchor: Image
Looks a little confusing, is it?

Let's break down the three essential items that you need to pay close attention to...

So that you don't ever miss an airdrop.

Here’s the first thing you need to look at:
"Next Snapshot Local Time":

This shows the time, in your timezone, of the snapshot of the upcoming airdrop. Image
Our next stop is, Next Snapshot in:

This option shows the countdown before the upcoming snapshot.

After the snapshot, the app would release airdrops for you to claim.

See those 34 minutes to go? Image
Finally, we have Snapshots Remaining:

This is the remaining number of scheduled airdrops for this token.

Here, the snapshots remaining are 77.

That means one snapshot would be taken before each of the 77 upcoming airdrops. Image
Now that you know what a snapshot is and what it looks like…

You can probably guess how some #LUNAtics don't see airdrops in their wallets after the snapshot.

You see, everyone who has staked $LUNA before a snapshot, gets airdrops after that snapshot.

But here's the twist:
You must have staked $LUNA before the snapshot is taken.

Remember, the date & time of the snapshot is mentioned in "Next Snapshot Local Time".

Till this time, you shouldn’t touch your staked $LUNA.

(unless you are ok with missing the airdrop opportunity)

But...
After the snapshot, you may consider moving your $LUNA if you have decided to.

It won't affect the number of your eligible airdrops.

The airdrops are released based on the record of wallets & balances shown in the snapshot.

Here's another mistake you must avoid at all cost:
Airdrops are released a FEW HOURS after the snapshot.

Some of us make the mistake of staking before the actual release of airdrops, yet after the snapshot.

You might think you’ll receive the airdrops since they haven't been released yet.

But it’s not the case:
While some people are wondering why they didn't receive airdrops even after staking $LUNA before the release of airdrops...

The important thing to remember is...

Stake $LUNA before the SNAPSHOT.

The time of the snapshot is most critical here, not the release of airdrops.
Yet, if you have staked $LUNA after a snapshot, don't fret.

You participate in the next airdrop as long as there are more "Scheduled Snapshots" lined up.

Just don't forget to keep your eyes glued to "Next Snapshot Local Time" & "Next Snapshot In".

Finally...
At Stader, all of this will be done automatically for you.

Forget about snapshot time, countdown & claiming airdrops from different apps one by one.

At Stader, you can claim all the airdrops from different apps with just ONE click.

Do validator claim logs impact your staking rewards?

Here’s what you need to know: 👇 Image
Did you know?

Claim logs are records that show when a validator has claimed its rewards & commissions.

The problem?

Different validators claim rewards & commissions at different times.

Some claim every 5 days...

While others claim every 10 days.

Should you be worried?
First, let's understand this claim timings contrast.

Rewards are revenues...

Not profits.

Therefore, claiming rewards cost fees.

Claiming rewards more frequently = More fees.

Plus, there's another significant cost:

Have you ever wondered how staking rewards really work?

Where do they come from and what hidden function does your staked $LUNA carry out?

The answer may surprise you:
First, it’s important to understand WHY you get rewarded for staking $LUNA.

You see, #LUNAtics get to collect staking yield for helping secure the @terra_money network.

The higher the amount you pledge, the more returns you get.

These rewards come from 4 major sources:
#1: Gas Fees
#2: Tax Fees
#3: Swap Fees (thanks to Col-5 Migration)
#4: Airdrops

Here's what you need to know about each:

Are you ready for up to 3x increase in staking rewards?

Yes, you heard that right, #LUNAtics!

That’s the effect on staking rewards after Col-5.

Wondering how this is going to happen?

Read on: Image
Although not yet official, @terra_money is about to make a huge jump in staking rewards.

The exact figures are being calculated and will show on TerraStation soon.

Wonder why this is happening?

You see, with Columbus-4, all swap fees were burnt...

But here's what changed:
With the coming of Columbus-5, all swap fees now go to $LUNA stakers.

Therefore, so when you swap UST-MINE, UST-ANC, etc....

…all the swap fees will now go to $LUNA stakers, and not burnt!

Tired of too many confusing validator metrics?

Here's the 6 secret metrics of staking (and what they really mean in practice): 👇 Image
Metric #1: Uptime.

Uptime is the percentage each validator has signed blocks for.

A block is basically a list of records.

Each record contains a tx hash...

Time and date...

And all kinds of details of the transaction data.

Here's the most important part:
Uptime is measured by the last 10k blocks.

Each of them roughly done every 6.77 seconds.

In other words:

When you see this metric, it tells you the effectiveness of a validator in the last ~19 hours.

Remember: general bad uptime means slashing risks.
