@loopify@Arcade_xyz@wabdoteth There are many opportunities to earn future airdrops in less time-sensitive ways by using the protocol. The Level 0 Airdrop (open since October) has a claim window of 6 months.
Those who won today now have a full day to set themselves up to claim within that short window
Beau, I respect the uncompromising focus on user safety; if users took that upon themselves we wouldnโt need this conversation, so you are being the change we need to see in the space and that should only be applauded. But Iโm having trouble with your logic here:
If we were to tell people, โgo use the protocol to get a future airdropโ, that would be fair game right? Been a standard part of the protocol growth playbook since the days of Yearn. However, using the protocol usually requires one to connect a wallet, approve some tokens, and then actually submit on-chain transactions. I donโt think one would argue that asking people to use their protocol would equate to leading them into the arms of scammers; the great thing is, weโre asking them do even less. No on-chain transactions, no token approvals, just connect a wallet, sign and qualify! Pretty cool. And we both know that wallet popups ๐ด๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ฆ๐น๐ข๐ค๐ต๐ญ๐บ ๐ธ๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ด๐ช๐จ๐ฏ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ. Letโs disabuse ourselves of the notion that signing anything could lead to losing your funds, because it discourages people from using their own eyes and thinking critically at the actual moment of time of signing. If it doesnโt look like structured data - and ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ค๐ข๐ด๐ฆ, ๐ช๐ต ๐ค๐ญ๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ๐ญ๐บ ๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต, ๐ช๐ตโ๐ด ๐ซ๐ถ๐ด๐ต ๐ข๐ฏ ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ด๐ด - itโs overwhelminglly likely to be safe. Safer than encouraging people to make token approvals and farm the protocol, which describes dozens of โpre-airdropโ campaigns open at this very moment.
Now one could say, well thatโs fair, but phishing sites could swap our harmless payloads with harmful ones, and the added time pressure might increase susceptibility for those who leap before they look. On your feedback, weโve addressed that; now thereโs a raffle, with pre-announced winners, and a pre-announced claim window. Boom, check on this day if you won, and if you did, just set a reminder on your phone. You've got time now. And again, in many of these other campaigns, time pressure ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ข๐ช๐ฏ๐ด an issue; how many times have you heard protocols use messaging like, โweโre raising the caps, get in before theyโre full!โ.
In conclusion, I posit to you that given our setup already, which involves low-touch qualification requirements and reduced time pressure - again, thanks to your feedback! - weโre ๐ด๐ข๐ง๐ฆ๐ณ than the large majority of airdrop campaigns that have run in history and are currently running. We think our setup is fair and balanced, weโre proud of it, and weโre excited to continue being leaders in security in the space; as weโve been over the past 2 years, with over six audits from best-in-class firms (all available on Github and in our docs), multiple completed crowd audit contests, and an open bug bounty program which has paid out over $50,000 to whitehats since our initial protocol launch, all without losing user funds.
I respect what youโre doing but given the points explained above your position is reaching the point of disingenuity. Weโre on the same team; letโs work together constructively to empower people to ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ถ๐ค๐ต ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ ๐ณ๐ช๐ด๐ฌ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ญ๐บ๐ด๐ช๐ด, explore the wild and wonderful space of on-chain NFT finance, and protect themselves all at the same time. Cheers fren ๐ค
That would mean there would need to be 4000 unique "bot" wallets all holding eligible NFTs. Given that organic distribution was one of the main criteria for qualifying communities I don't think that's the case
We do encourage every eligible holder to be ready to act fast, and automate contract interaction (i.e. "bot" it) if it's within their skill set. Can help avoid UI-based phishing attacks this way as well
@beausecurity@Arcade_xyz Yes, correct, users should check URLs as they always do - for those who think that they might lose focus due to being rushed, this claim might be too risky for them.
As for delegation, if a penguin is delegated at the time of snapshot then the delegated wallet will be eligible
@icebergy It makes it easier to rehypothecate tokens and provides a trusted slashing function that allows slashers to enforce honest operation (in any execution context) against the stakers
@rkmasiello Most confusing to me is mfs who thought this stuff would never happen. post-ftx, getting through this stage is a requirement for next bulla
