One thing to say is that the traditional airdrop model is collapsing It has to be said that the recent airdrops of several popular projects have been unsatisfactory. I have been deeply involved, and personally feel that it's not the case that we don't suffer from scarcity but from inequality. Essentially, the traditional airdrop model is collapsing. The contradiction between the airdrop farmers (me) and the project party is becoming increasingly prominent. It is difficult to reconcile the long-term construction and short-term interest game in the downward market. This is a great test of model design. Let's sneak in! ⬇️ If TGE is used as the dividing line, the traditional airdrop design is now focused on the first half, which inevitably leads to empty buildings and a mess after the airdrop. Many 'conscientious' projects grit their teeth and force themselves to airdrop, leaving TGE with no ability to take on a wave of market crashes. The worse the market and the smaller their chip control, the more difficult it becomes to proceed, resulting in many excellent projects failing. In the opposite direction, the 'Birth' project was smashed even harder than the farmers and was even paired with a mouse den, and the result can be imagined If, I say, a serious and long-term project wants to reward the community, how should it be designed? There is a simple idea: treat users as customers, not family members. Is it difficult to understand? It's actually simple, it's about incorporating users into one's own economic system and product logic, treating them as customers, and rewarding them for their contributions. When it comes to being a family, hypocritical family members end up loving and caring for each other at the beginning, only to be ostracized and turned into enemies later on. In fact, looking back, Bitcoin rewards long-term miners, while Ethereum rewards long-term verification nodes. Similarly, your project requires customers to do what they need in the long run and what kind of rewards they need to provide. @Billions_ntwk has taken this idea into consideration and recently launched a long-term incentive program for validators, which can also be understood as airdrops to users who help verify humans and AI. Verification → Contribution → Earn → Repeat This is a typical cycle in which Billions integrates users into the system as customers. According to this model, the roles that receive rewards in the system include: verification nodes, community loyal fans, testnet plans, on chain asset holders, as well as Kaito Yappers, ambassadors, etc. Note that the biggest difference is not the one-time gameplay of TGE, but the continuously enriched 10-year reward plan based on business stages! / I started paying attention to Billions very early, even before this project came out... One of the core founders, David, is the former founder of Hermes, and I was involved in this project very early. At that time, it was really advanced, but suddenly it was acquired by Polygon, and Hermez also merged into Polygon, but David still rewarded the community. Evin, the founder of Dai VD and Disco, and Sandeep, the CEO of Polygon, jointly created Billions, which is a very typical Polygon project. PolyChain, Coinbase, and Polygon participated in the investment and executive group. At the product level, Billion's core focuses on Zero Knowledge proofs, with applications in human and AI verification. Taking AI agents as an example, Billions uses ZK technology to verify the identity, behavior, and path of AI agents throughout the entire chain, making agents truly trusted services and collaborating with humans for symbiosis. Billions is very convenient to use, just register with your mobile browser [give it a try] http://signup.billions.network ]Don't worry about leaking privacy, ZK is still very strong in verifying privacy protection. Verification can be completed without sacrificing privacy, especially in terms of business uniqueness verification, allowing all data to be flexible, low-cost, and accessible across platforms and regions. In the plan, Billions has three important milestones: ∝ Phase 1: Humans and AI Networks, Verifying Machines and Humans Phase 2: Reputation layer, connecting humans and machines through verification Phase 3: Global Trust Economy, Enriching Identity Features for Economic Activities In this way, by combining the reward mode at the beginning, Billions aims to build a real demand flywheel driven by trust verification protocol, with more people participating → greater network value → more airdrop distribution. / In the short term, more than two months after Kaito's launch, TGE is approaching, and the first reward time node is coming. After TGE, there are various incentives such as ambassadors, staking, and leaderboards, and 32% of the tokens are allocated to this part. Suddenly, the incident occurred and Billions officially announced that they had joined Base. Once they joined Base, they naturally thought about whether they could get a CB. However, for the Base ecosystem, the greater significance lies in using Billions' small flywheel, which can connect many things, whether it is ecological level incentives or application level collaboration. The so-called adhesive means this. These days, the entire Base ecosystem has been building momentum, and there should be big news. A few days ago, I also participated in an AMA as a guest, and I roughly knew what direction it was, but I never expected it... I didn't mean to be a riddle solver, it was agreed not to say, but it was soon revealed that the direction was hidden in this article. In short, if you want to achieve great results in Billions, the core secret is deep and long-term engagement. / Author: Anymose | A Soft Core Science Popularization Writer This article is for educational purposes only and does not constitute any investment advice.
