It is highly anticipated but disappointed?

Author: Alex Li, ForeSight News

EIGENLAYER announced last night to launch the token EIGEN and will conduct “StakeDrop” airdrops.EIGEN currently offers 9.94 USDT on AEVO, corresponding to nearly $ 16 billion in FDVs.Users who participated in the pledge through EIGENLAYER and the holders of LRT can now check the number of airdrops on the official application website, and participants of the DEFI protocols such as Pendle need to wait until the second stage.

Eigenlayer’s airdrop finally came, but it brought unexpected controversy.

Voting about who is worse in the community in the community

The project is highly noticed

If you ask what the most watched project this year is, Eigenlayer, which sets up the wave of “re -pledge” with its own power, is an indisputable answer in many people’s hearts.When the ALT L1 et al. Continued to be popular, when the golden dog Meme was flying, the LRTFI based on Eigenlayer stabilized the Ethereum ecology, absorbing a lot of TVL, so that users were looking forward to the excess returns in the future.Keep confidence in Ethereum.

According to Defillama, Eigenlayer has nearly $ 16 billion TVL, ranking second in the full chain

Many people believe that “Eigenlayer will be this year, even the largest airdrop in history.”

However, last night, the EIGEN FOUNDATON X account, domain name, airdrop application website domain name, EIGEN tokens white paper, airdrop qualification query function was successively revealed and launched, many people were getting disappointed and even angry.What happened?

Due to the continuous abuse of users who are dissatisfied with airdrops, Bankless, which is broadcast by the founder of Eigenlayer, closed the comment

The result is disappointing

Distribution: There are more VCs and teams, few users

From the opening of the deposit for the first time in June last year to the snapshot on March 15 this year, in the past year, all the re -pledged participants who have invested nearly $ 16 billion in EIGENLAYER will divide the “StakeDrop” reward with a total of 5% of the total amount of tokens.At the same time, the share of early contributors and investors (that is, VC and team) increased as high as 55%.

News that includes token distribution details

This tokenomics is given in the white paper with more than 40 pages. Among them, the first quarter of the airdrop share is not only lower than the expectations of some users, but also lower than the market pricing (after the announcement of the LRT related YT directly fell on the PENDLE).It does not seem to buy it -many users say that they only receive a minimum guarantee of 10 EIGEN, and at the same time, the number of tokens is small, and the majority of community members are lower than expected.

“Unswerving” tokens

That’s right, 90% of the tokens in the first season of “StakeDrop” can be applied to the pledgers and LRT holders of Eigenlayer directly on May 10.But it seems to be useless?Because the currency cannot be transferred at this time, it means that it cannot be sold.In the document, in order to ensure that full time is left for decentralization, the tokens will maintain an irreplaceable state.

These people seem to know the time of snapshot?

Whenever a project is carried out, whether someone has inside information, whether there is a so -called “mouse warehouse” will definitely become a hot topic.Because this is the two most critical standards for airdrops: fairness and transparency.And this time, it seems that there are some weird “coincidences.”

The first quarter of the airdrop fast photos is March 15th, and the “legendary trader” GSR who posted a post on a few days ago, just happened to be worth 7 million US dollars on March 16th after the snapshot one day.WBeth proposed.

Snapshot

GSR’s withdrawal record

This is not a special case. On January 2nd, the newly injected wallet from Binance deposited about 4,000 WBeth and about $ 13 million to Eigenlayer. In the next three months, nearly 3.5 million EIGEN points accumulated.On March 16, one day after the snapshot, it all withdrawn.

Capital record of the wallet

Are these people “Insider” with inside information?Some people in the community believed that they were angry.

Strict geographical blockade

The geographical location is limited, and the airdrop page cannot be opened

It is not uncommon to restrict the qualifications of airdrops in geographical location, but often stops from prohibiting the United States and the number of sanctions and a few sanctions.Eigenlayer’s list of restricted countries is definitely long. The restricted country written in the first one is China.

Long -term prohibited from receiving the national list of airdrops

The marked red area is a area banned by EIGEN

And in the past, geographical blockade is often surface -to -surface. Hanging VPNs in other countries can still apply to the tokens normally.Eigenlayer is different, and it moves “True”.The author has experienced it in person that the previously unfavorable agent was detected and blocked. This was its first failure.It was very tossing, and then bypassed the geographical blockade to query the share.(Tutorial at the end)

Another point of community disputes is: Since you have such a powerful geographical testing and blockade ability, why do n’t you need to use it when the previous agreement is opened, and it is only enabled when receiving the reward?Is it because I don’t like it?
