Airdrops

To drive mass adoption, encourage early participation, and reward contributions to the decentralized science (DeSci) ecosystem, Penverse will implement a multi-phase airdrop strategy. This initiative aims to distribute PENSO tokens to key participants who actively engage in research, governance, and platform activities, ensuring a fair and strategic token distribution.

Airdrop Objectives

  • User Onboarding – Bring in researchers, contributors, and community members to kickstart the ecosystem.

  • Engagement & Participation – Reward users for publishing, reviewing, and interacting with research data.

  • Governance & Staking Incentives – Distribute tokens to users who participate in governance and staking.

  • Partnership & Network Growth – Expand the Penverse network through strategic collaborations and partnerships.


Airdrop Allocation & Distribution

A total of 5% of the total token supply has been allocated from the Community & Partnership Rewards (15%) for Airdrops. This ensures a fair distribution to incentivize engagement and ecosystem growth.

Phase 1: TGE Airdrop (Genesis Boost)

Objective: Reward early adopters, researchers, and active community members to establish an initial user base.

  • Who Qualifies?

    • Early community members engaged before TGE (Telegram, Discord, Twitter/X, research discussions).

    • Researchers who submit pre-launch research proposals.

    • Developers contributing to Penverse’s open-source tools.

  • Activities Required:

    • Social media engagement (follows, retweets, discussions).

    • Submitting early research concepts.

    • Joining governance discussions.

  • Tokens Distributed: 5% of Airdrop Allocation


Phase 2: Early Research Contributor Airdrop

Objective: Incentivize researchers and knowledge contributors to bring valuable content to the platform.

  • Who Qualifies?

    • Researchers publishing high-quality research papers.

    • Peer reviewers who provide meaningful research feedback.

    • Contributors to the AI-assisted research database.

  • Activities Required:

    • Publishing at least one validated research paper.

    • Participating in peer reviews.

    • Engaging with AI-powered research discovery tools.

  • Tokens Distributed: 15% of Airdrop Allocation


Phase 3: Governance & Staking Incentive Airdrop

Objective: Encourage DAO participation and long-term staking.

  • Who Qualifies?

    • Users who stake PENSO tokens.

    • Active participants in Penverse DAO governance.

    • Proposal creators for funding and DeSci initiatives.

  • Activities Required:

    • Staking tokens for a minimum of 3 months.

    • Voting in at least two DAO proposals.

    • Submitting research funding proposals.

  • Tokens Distributed: 20% of Airdrop Allocation


Phase 4: Research Marketplace & Data Monetization Airdrop

Objective: Incentivize research data sharing and NFT-backed research monetization.

  • Who Qualifies?

    • Researchers selling datasets, AI models, and experimental tools.

    • Buyers of research-backed NFTs and tokenized knowledge.

  • Activities Required:

    • Listing research assets on Penverse’s Research Marketplace.

    • Purchasing at least one research-backed NFT.

  • Tokens Distributed: 25% of Airdrop Allocation


Phase 5: Expansion & Referral Growth Airdrop

Objective: Expand Penverse’s reach by encouraging community referrals and collaborations.

  • Who Qualifies?

    • Users who onboard new researchers, data scientists, or contributors.

    • Communities that drive mass adoption through partnerships.

  • Activities Required:

    • Referring verified new users to Penverse.

    • Organizing research collaboration events.

  • Tokens Distributed: 35% of Airdrop Allocation


Post-Airdrop Impact & Sustainability

To ensure long-term token sustainability, the airdrop allocation is strategically phased with clear objectives and engagement-driven distribution. Additionally:

  • Unused airdrop tokens will be reallocated for future research grants and platform incentives.

  • Post-airdrop engagement programs will be launched to retain users within the ecosystem.
