JUP Airdrop Proposal for Season 2 - 2025

@Shrekt

Another reason for that is that maybe those who used the platform for a single month most likely will instantly sell their airdrop on day 1, while long term users and believers have higher chance to keep their airdrop, maybe stake etc.

These are just assumptions. Do you have any data to back up these claims? New users might just be as valuable or more valuable for Jupuary as existing users.

About your other arguments:

The point of the 2nd November 2023 - 2nd November 2024 snapshot timeframe (for example if the same as round #1 is used) is that users within that timeframe are eligible. It doesn’t make any sense then to add another time-based criterium.

The time between the November snapshot and the January airdrop already provides a similar 3-month time gap between snapshot and airdrop.

There are much better ways of doing deduplication and anti-Sybil, in addition to the weeding out of 11,361,557 low volume wallets with less than < $100 trading volume. That is using blockchain analysis. So you don’t need arbitrary and unfair methods which exclude legitimate users for no good reason.

@JUPWhale

It would be highly problematic to add a 3 month minimum usage requirement to any of the Jupiter features. The time between the November snapshot and the January airdrop already provides a similar time gap.

It would arbitrarily and unfairly exclude users who became active on Solana and/or Jupiter only recently.

There are much better ways of doing deduplication and anti-Sybil, in addition to the weeding out of 11,361,557 low volume wallets with less than < $100 trading volume.

• The main issue with this point is that it would arbitrarily and unfairly exclude users who became active on Solana and/or Jupiter only recently.
• Furthermore there are much better ways of doing deduplication and anti-Sybil, in addition to the weeding out of 11,361,557 low volume wallets with less than < $100 trading volume.

@Shrekt

it’s the end of 2024 when you acknowledge that there are 15+m active wallets having interacted with Jupiter.

If you include only $100.00+ volume wallets there’s just 3,885,443 out of 15,650,277 users, and if you include only $1,000.00+ users there’s just 2,302,243 out of 15,650,277 users. That already weeds out most low quality interactions. Further deduplication can be done with a blockchain data analysis tool. There is no need to use arbitrary and unreliable methods which filter out many legitimate users.
