It's been almost 3 months since Wormhole's airdrop
Will airdrops continue? How will they change?
It's worth highlighting the effort it takes to launch one at scale & share learnings from Wormhole's first round
- 1M+ wallets
- 70+ eco teams
- 26 chains
- 5 onchain communities
2/ What went well?..
- Vested airdrops are gud. We need more of these and are already starting to see this more with teams like the @FantomFDN's recently announced Sonic chain
-Separating the checker and claim should be a standard. People will always be mad about not getting free money. So if you combine the disappointment of those people with the protocol's claim/TGE, you almost guarantee an outcome of negative sentiment (I'm sure there are examples on both sides of this)
- Goes without saying, but prioritize the users of the product over everything else, no matter what new ideas you have
- Anti-sybil work over 5 months with @AlliumLabs was a success
- Meticulously prioritizing claim experience. Make it as cheap and fast as possible, simple as that. Thanks to @triton_one and @heliuslabs for the support here
