Analysis of Hyperlane and Initia AirdropAnalysis of Hyperlane and Initia Airdrop. How projects rewarded their community

Introduction

Airdrop campaigns have always been interesting to the community and encourage them to help develop the project. It's also common for people to help projects without thinking about Airdrops, and these people can be called ideological enthusiasts. In this article, we'll look at Airdrop from Hyperlane and Initia

Hyperlane

Hyperlane is an innovative interoperable protocol in the cryptocurrency world that allows blockchains to communicate with each other. Its main goal is to simplify the exchange of data and assets between different networks without relying on centralised bridges or complex interfaces

The project announced the $HYPER token a long time ago, and also planned an IDO on the Legion platform, but it was cancelled at the last minute

On 3 April, the project announced a checker (Airdrop verification) for $HYPER tokens (Below is my allocation that I will receive)

Also, to get the tokens, you had to register and choose the network in which you wanted to receive the tokens

Реєстрація на Airdrop проходила в кілька етапів:

• 3 April - opening of registration and selection of a network to receive tokens
• 15 April - end of registration
• 20 April - the token stamp on the wallet was supposed to open (but it did not)
• 6 May - end of the token stamp

Listing of $HYPER

On 22 April, the token is to be listed on all top 1 exchanges. And Binance will hold an IDO via Binance Web3 Wallet and Holder Airdrop with its own terms of participation

Criteria for receiving Airdrop

1. Spending on Hyperlane network fees
• Users who have spent at least ~$5.00 USD on fees on the network

2. Developers and users of the protocols
• Developers who have deployed smart contracts or applications using Hyperlane were also considered. This includes users who have interacted with applications and protocols that use the Hyperlane infrastructure.

3. Activity in specific ecosystems
• Special allocations have been given to users on networks where Hyperlane is the canonical interoperability solution, such as Eclipse, Injective EVM, Lumia, SOON, SonicSVM, and Form.

4. Holders of certain NFTs
• Holders of Celestine Sloth Society or Mammoths NFT collections at the time of the image are also eligible for the airdrop.

5. Liquidity providers for TIA
Addresses that provided liquidity for the TIA token on the Manta or Arbitrum platforms before 30 January 2024 were included in the list of qualified participants

Initia

Initia is a next-generation multi-layer blockchain infrastructure that combines Layer 1 (L1) and Layer 2 (L2) functionality, focused on creating network states, multi-chain ecosystems and maximum modularity for developers.

On 31 March, the project officially announces Airdrop and launches via $INIT token allocations

On 14 April, trading was launched on the ByBit Pre-Market

🚀The spot listing date is 24 April on all three exchanges

Criteria for receiving Airdrop:

1. Testnet participants (89.46% - 44.7 million INITs)
• The largest share of airdrops is for users who participated in Initia's testnet campaigns, including:
• Completing tasks within the Initia XP Campaign (e.g. staking, swaps, DEX interaction).
• Using Jennie NFT and achieving level 2+
• Participation in Kamigotchi, Civitia, and MilkyWay projects.
•Having roles in Discord other than "Initiates".

2. Ecosystem partners (4.5% - 2.25 million INITs)
This category includes active users of partner networks such as:
• LayerZero
• IBC
• MilkyWayCoin

3. Social contributors (6.04% - 3 million INIT)
Rewards for participants who actively interacted with Initia on social media:
• Discord: 1%
• Telegram: 0.0374%
• Twitter/X: 5%

It is important to note that the 3rd point (social cotributors) also includes a leaderboard on Kaito

The top 4k people in the leaderboard for 12 months were taken into account. This helped to identify the real community supporters who were with the project before the awards were announced🔥

Personally, I really like that we all have a connection with Kaito because it really helps to identify the real community and help the project reward its users. And this statistic was also taken into account by Mitosis and they will take into account the top 1k people in the leaderboard for 6 months

Conclusion

Projects that have good teams are really ready to reward their loyal users, who in turn help the projects grow. This can be in the form of counter-blogging on social media and the use of their products

P.s. This article was written on 21 April, in the article I indicated the listing dates of $HYPER and $INIT and did not enter the price of the tokens because they were not listed at the time. Perhaps when this article is published, you will already know the price of the tokens
