To kickoff the launch of Mode Season 2, we wanted to create a simple guide to help participants understand everything being offered.

Dear Mode community,  Season 2 has officially started and is designed to reward users that continue to grow the Mode ecosystem. With $MODE launching on the 7th May (details here and check your Season 1 points here) and a number of leading DeFi applications deploying to Mode we couldn’t be more excited to scale with you all.

Dear Mode Community, Mode’s Airdrop 1 campaign will end on the 5th May. Thanks to the incredible community of users and developers, Airdrop 1 has achieved its mission to grow Mode from genesis into a leading L2 with:

We are thrilled to open registrations for the Mode Yield Accelerator. This accelerator is designed to further the growth of native projects within the Mode ecosystem, with a particular focus on projects building around Yield and DeFi primitives.

Today we are announcing the distribution amounts of Month One of our DevDrop.

Tl;dr Velodrome Finance, the MetaDEX that serves as a liquidity hub for the Optimism ecosystem, is joining Mode, the Modular DeFi L2. Velodrome combines some of DeFi’s most powerful primitives in a unified marketplace and its launch on Mode will boost liquidity across the growing ecosystem. Velodrome has started working on the integration which will go live in the coming weeks.

As Mode moves into the next phase of our growth journey by expanding support for yield bearing Liquid Staking and Restaking assets we are updating the airdrop campaign to encourage a more efficient ecosystem for these assets.

Today we launch both our Developer Dashboard and Sequencer Fee Sharing (SFS) on mainnet, marking a significant stride towards rewarding the builders who power our ecosystem. These launches embody our vision of creating an Onchain Cooperative where every contributor reaps the benefits of our collective growth.

Today, Mode unveils DevDrop 1, an innovative competition designed to empower developers to launch their Dapps and L3s on the Mode Network. This initiative aims to catalyze the growth of the Mode ecosystem by rewarding developers for their contributions with a share of up to 5% of the MODE token supply. Mode DevDrop 1 focuses on projects that drive real impact to the network.
