[Aabis @aabisanaytulla]

I have spent the last 7 months living and breathing @aztecnetwork
not casually but day and night

Running nodes
paying for vps after vps
troubleshooting every possible error
helping strangers fix their setups
answering Dms at 3 AM
creating content when nobody else was even mentioning @aztecnetwork
showing up consistently because i believed in the technology the mission and the people behind it.

And i am not alone there are countless contributors doing the same
people who believed early
people who put in real time real money, real energy

Yet somehow many of us still get labelled as just “farmers”

But here is the truth

Setting up and maintaining nodes isn't a one click task
helping users takes hours
troubleshooting takes patience
being part of a community creating content, teaching others it all takes real effort and real passion.

These contributions shouldn't be dismissed or overlooked
because the community isn't an afterthought it is the backbone of every successful network.

In crypto we love to say “community first” but actions matter more than slogans
and honestly we are all farmers in this market anyway even founders
we are all building, planting, hoping what we are creating will grow into something meaningful

We are in the same boat
but respect has to go both ways.

@Cryptowithkhan - Greedy Teams

[Burak (prev. Rahil) @RahilBuilds]

> ~15% of supply
> at $350M FDV
> locked for 3 months after TGE
> a governance vote will be held after that period and if it fails the vote, it will remain locked for 1 year

How can I know that the team won't vote against it lol

I love @clairekart but I won't participate

[jesse.base.eth @jessepollak]

Basepost and you will be rewarded.

[Amin @0xAminMAD]

If we consider avg $700m fdv for public auction, they'll raise another $100m funds
(1.5B tokens × $0.066)

How greedy they are..

And only 1.93% of supply for community phase (I'd call it public phase 1)
fr how did they gather 300k wallets..

[jesse.base.eth @jessepollak]

you: hate farmers

we: appreciate farmers as people all around the world trying to earn in the new global economy who deserve our respect and help growing the skills they need to meaningfully contribute

[Anon Vee @AnonVee_]

testnets are now for fun and fun only.

take note!

[bigray0x.eth ⚡️ @bigray0x]

ICOs are worse than airdrops - but we’re not ready for this conversation.

There’s a reason OG investors let it die before.

It’s only about time again.

[CryptoTelugu @CryptoTeluguO]

[ℕOLIMIT🪼 @LIMITLESSDAMI]

Aztec be like

$119M isn’t enough

Let’s collect $300M more from the community

And lock their audio tokens for 12 month

[pg @pgreyy]

90 days lock up.

12 months lock if no vote passes.

community first.

no airdrop. 15% up for sale.

$350m starting price.

well, not surprised since everyone suddenly became a contributor.

definitely, not a good ico... thanks.

[Anon Vee @AnonVee_]

you allocate %2-3 supply to community and %90+ supply to insiders

yet you wonder why no one is bidding your token

[LARIK @Lary_Bo]

We are a small home-office team of crypto-punk enthusiasts who have been supporting Aztec not for profit, not for salary, but purely for the love of the technology and the mission of private, decentralized infrastructure.

For more than 6 months, we have been:

• renting our own servers (dozens of machines, paid personally)
• running nodes 24/7
• updating clients and patches on every release
• managing crashes, rollbacks, and instability
• reporting bugs
• monitoring uptime
• providing real-world load and stress conditions
• helping keep the testnet alive when it broke
• doing operational work that is expensive and time-consuming

All of this was done:
• with zero salary,
• with zero guaranteed rewards,
• using our own money,
• and purely for fun and for the vision.

Meanwhile, the core team receives both salaries AND tokens.

And this raises a very simple and very fair question:

**Why are employees compensated twice (salary + token allocation),

while contributors who kept the network running receive nothing at all?**

This is not about an airdrop.
This is about fairness.

The whole narrative of Aztec is about decentralization, community, and shared ownership — yet the current distribution looks like:
team → salary + tokens
investors → tokens
community contributors → nothing

This is not the spirit of decentralization.
This is not aligned with crypto values.
This is simply not fair.

We are not asking for handouts.
We are not demanding allocations.
But we are asking for fairness and recognition.

Because right now, the people who spent their own money, their own time, and their own energy…
get 0.

And the people who already receive salaries
get salaries + tokens.

This is not balanced.
This is not fair.

We are here because we believe in Aztec.
We invested our time and our money because we care.
But we also believe that fair distribution is the foundation of any healthy network.

We stand for fairness.
We stand for the community.
We stand for recognition of real work.

[m0h @exploraX_]

imagine burning money through many months of node running only to get “Sorry, No airdrops”

lol, running nodes is net -ve.

[LARIK @Lary_Bo]

@NovaXBTiq what are you toking about - that project just SCAMED all community, running node for nothing

[Crypto Preacher @preachercalls]

$AZTEC $119M raised and still no airdrop.
Aztec are pathetic losers selling what should’ve been given to the community.
Don’t fall for it. Don’t buy. Share and RT — let everyone see. #scam #crypro #airdrop #aztec #eth

[The Bipolar Degen @bipolardegen]

Members who run nodes for months now 😂.What a scam
