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

$aUSD is the decentralized stablecoin of @Polkadot powered by @AcalaNetwork.

BUT what is it, why is it exciting and how is it different from other stablecoins?

These 7 quick facts will give you a complete understanding 🧵.. 1. It's stable

$aUSD is pegged to one dollar. 1 aUSD = 1 USD.

Okay, I know.. this one tends to be obvious for most.
