Stride Testnet Airdrop Timeline

🍉 Testnet Rewards Airdrop Checker will go live on Monday October 31st @ 9pm UTC

🍉 At the same time, Stride team will open a form so you can submit any questions about your tasks and points. It will remain open for two weeks. This should give the community enough time to submit any questions before the airdrop goes live, in case any calculations look wrong.

🍉 Airdrop claims will go live on November 15th. This gives contributors enough time to process all questions, and make sure everyone is receiving their expected amount.

Looks like the guy who posted an announcement have made mistake about gentx submission time arrangements 🤬

First 75 gentx submitted will be included in genesis. And currently there are already 89 PRs submitted. No need to submit new gentx anymore.

Just get ready for network launch on November 2. Guide will be updated when there will be more instruction from the team.

Validators do not need to be in the Active set nor in genesis to receive rewards

Stride have published the list of Incentivized Testnet rewards.

Check if your stride address is eligible for the rewards here: https://shorturl.at/fivw1

Points does not reflect token amount you will get. Currently if we take a fast look into the checker we can see all participants got 659425 points in total (this can change). So for the pool of 500k STRD it would be around 0.75 tokens per point.

Rewards will be vested linearly over 3 months (e.g. after 10 days, 10/90 of your airdrop will have vested). Portion of tokens will be unlocked each block.

If you performed tasks, and it's not accounted for, please fill out his form with evidence: https://forms.gle/KG9vKb5fknqGYQRu9
Testnet explorers: https://stride.munris.tech/

Here is the list of Incentivized Testnet tasks: https://github.com/Stride-Labs/testnet/tree/main/incentivized-testnet

We got 535 points for this testnet, what are your results?
