<aside> 💡 Details of the airdrop are still being drafted. Below are some thoughts.

FOXChain is a public good that can be used by anyone and everyone in the blockchain space. Because of that, there’s a strong desire to limit any insiders from receiving NT, and to maximize the amount delivered to airdrop recipients.

The main goals of the airdrop are

• To create widespread coin distribution
• Marketing/Awareness Campaign

Michael Perklin has stated that he prefers an airdrop that distributes tokens to as many DAOs and communities that depend on centralized blockchain data sources as possible. In addition, where many other airdrops carve out tranches for insiders such as early investors, development teams, and advisors, Michael has stated his preference for a simple airdrop with only two tranches: The Community Pool and Airdrop Recipients in a 50:50 split.

Community Pool

There are many things that can help FOXChain grow, and to fund these things, we need a strong community treasury.

Where other airdrops carved out allocations for things that need funding, it is possible to fund all of these things directly out of the Community Pool via early proposals.

Some examples of the very first proposals could be:

1. Issue back-pay to the developers, engineers, economists, architects, and team that built FOXChain from the ground up.
   • This first proposal would let all airdrop recipients have a say in who gets paid for building FOXChain, and how much. If you feel the team is asking for too much, another proposal can be submitted with a different pay scale.
2. Participate in a token-swap event with other DAOs (such as Osmosis)
   • If both communities swap tokens, their incentives are aligned towards helping each other
3. Deposit x funds from the Community Pool to establish a new pool on Osmosis
4. Provide y funds as incentives for LPing into a new pool on Osmosis
