It'd be interesting to see $BLAST holders vote on dapp and token gold allocations.
How it could work:
· Lock $BLAST for $veBLAST
· The longer you lock the more $veBLAST you receive
· Vote for which protocols or tokens receive Gold (your voting power is based on your $veBLAST holdings)
· Protocols bribe holders for votes with their own token incentives
· Blast provides staking rewards to $veBLAST holders
$veBLAST would give $BLAST arguably more utility than any other L2 token.
Holders would be rewarded much more than farmers who sell their tokens.
Holders would also become advocates for their favorite dapps/coins to try to get them more votes.
There's a risk this new side economy won't allocate rewards effectively, have corruption or protocols won't like it. But, Blast could always monitor and step in.
Ultimately, rewarding holders and locking supply is a promising way to increase token demand.
The mobile app can also make this process user friendly too.
Wdyt?
🚨🚨 QUICK HITS ON BLAST TOKENOMICS 🚨🚨
17% airdrop (14% Points/Gold - 3% Blur):
BULLISH AF for Blast early adopters. Feels a bit rekt for Blur farmers, but also they ate HEAVILY on S1/2 of Blur...so kinda makes sense
VESTING SCHEDULE:
25% per year. Substantially scaled back from the front-heavy vesting of Blur. Feels like a bet by Pacman and team on longevity rather than quick exit liq. h/t @punk9059 for this great note
COMMUNITY:
When was the last time you saw a major airdrop celebrate community heroes in the airdrop announcement?
Never - right? It's always about the money.
Recent airdrops - everything SOL, ZK, ZRO, etc the entire conversation revolved around sybils.
Blast PDF is LOADED with celebration of the community and culture we've worked hard to build over the past months.
In our humble opinion that may be the most bullish piece - sticky liquidity via native yield mixed with sticky community via the full backing of the Foundation....bros it's up only from here.

BLAST TOKENOMICS UNVEILED
➡️ $BLAST airdrops tomorrow at 10AM ET
➡️ Will be 17% of supply split three ways: 7% for Blast Points, 7% for Blast Gold, and 3% for ETH Blur stakers/farmers
➡️ (cont'd) The 3% to Blur will be for retroactive AND future rewards
➡️ Top 0.1% of users (~1000 wallets) will vest PART of their airdrop for 6 months. They'll have to keep-up points activity for the unlocks
➡️ (cont'd) They didn't say how much will be non-vested, but this isn't a surprise. Timeline's been speculating on this for the last week
➡️ Community will get 50% of all Blast tokens over the next 3 years! Rest is vested for team (25%), investors (16%), Blast Foundation (8%)
➡️ (cont'd) They said community tokens will come through INCENTIVE CAMPAIGNS. They're spelling out that there'll be a season 2 of farming
➡️ I recommend everyone read their pitch deck. It's pro and gives a great shout-out to the Blast community at the end. Linked below
Blast gold estimate: $7.71
Assumptions:
Total gold supply: 77,172,650 (all delivered + no more jackpots)
Blast FDV: $8.5bn
Percentage FDV given to gold: 7%
There are only two unknowns left:
1) Valuation of the token
2) Will there be any surprise gold drops or jackpots
70% of my followers expect a valuation below $8bn so this is clearly an out-of-consensus view.
PLEASE don't make any financial decisions on my estimates. Just wait 24 hours and see the real value.
Points estimate & thoughts coming soon.
IT’S TIME FOR $BLAST
The Blast Foundation will airdrop BLAST to the community tomorrow, June 26 at 10AM EST, 10PM HKT, 4PM CET.
Q2 highlights and tokenomics below 👇
Prediction for this week:
