Introducing Our Second NFT Airdrop to reward Testnet users
November 13th, 2024

Today is the day we announce the list of wallets eligible for the Phase 2 NFT mint!

We are thrilled to see such strong engagement from the community. It's important to note that many of you have completed an impressive number of quests.

The maximum possible interactions during the entire testnet period was 813, and one dedicated individual managed to complete all 813 interactions over the 8 months of the testnet. That’s an incredible achievement!

Key Highlights of This Phase:

This phase placed a strong emphasis on Sybil resistance, ensuring that only genuine participants could qualify.

Analyzing the snapshot data and distributing NFTs fairly was no easy task. Our goal was to balance rewards for:

  • Those who have been with us since the beginning.

  • Those who joined in Phase 2 and demonstrated strong commitment.

  • Latecomers who, despite joining late, showed high levels of enthusiasm.

Additionally, our NFTs have a meaningful role beyond the airdrop, so we had to ensure a well-balanced collection.


Differences From Phase 1:

  1. Proof of Humanity:Participants who verified their humanity through BotBasher were the only eligible for this distribution.

  2. Long-Term Commitment:We highly value those who stayed with us for the full 8 months.

  3. On-Chain Task Carryover:On-chain interactions from Phase 1 were carried over to Phase 2 for everyone, as promised.


Thresholds for Phase 2:

  • Tier 1 NFT: Requires 485 total on-chain interactions (Phase 1 + Phase 2 combined).This ensures that early and consistent participants are properly rewarded.

  • Tier 2 NFT: Requires 95 on-chain interactions (Phase 1 + Phase 2 combined).This allows late joiners to still earn an NFT.


What This Means:

  • To earn a Tier 1 NFT, you needed to complete at least 35 on-chain tasks in Phase 1, and the remaining in Phase 2. This recognizes the dedication of those who participated consistently over the 4.5-month Phase 1 and the 3.5-month Phase 2. It was very important for us to make sure that, as well as rewarding community members, we also proved to OG users that they matter more than anything else.

  • To earn a Tier 2 NFT, you needed to complete at least 95 on-chain interactions, which equates to about 20 days of participation—20% of Phase 2.


Distribution Breakdown:

Phase 1 NFTs:

  • 6,555 Tier 1

  • 18,828 Tier 2

Phase 2 NFTs:

  • 6345 Tier 1 (Mintable)

  • 9006 Tier 2 (Mintable)

This means Tier 1 NFTs remain scarce, but Tier 2 NFTs are significantly rarer than before!

We've adjusted the criteria to make sure there's something for everyone: the OGs are rewarded for their enormous contribution over the entire testnet with Tier 1 NFTs, the Phase 2 testers who've been there from the start, with a reduced number of Tier 2 NFTs making this collection much rarer than the previous one, and finally the last-hour testers, giving them a chance to win something.

Including everyone while valuing everyone's investment is a way of proving that Elys Network is really for the people even if it wasn’t an easy task.

Total Possible NFTs for the Gold & Silver series to come:

  • 6,498 Gold NFTs

  • 9284 Silver NFTs

All this allows us to maintain an interesting structure for each NFT series, while making the most of everyone involved.

However, if you've been reading this article from the start and if you are still here, you're probably wondering:

  • But with 9,000+ Tier 2 Phase 1 NFTs left after the Silver mint, what are they going to be used for next?

We've got a gold collection, a silver collection, we're missing something aren't we?

It won't happen at launch, but whatever happens, keep those precious NFTs, they might come in handy later.

You may also be wondering when you'll be able to mint? And how long will the mint last?

You'll be able to mint this week, so stay tuned.

The mint will be live for a week and trading will be open as soon as the mint is launched.
