Airdrop Mechanics by Season

Each Tharwa airdrop is tied to a Points Season — and each season is structured to reward participation that actually benefits the protocol.

We don’t do surprise retroactive giveaways or gamified point farming. Airdrops are structured, publicly tracked, and merit-based. If you’re using the system as intended, you’ll see that reflected in your points — and later, in your TRWA.

Season-Based Distribution

Each season ends with a public snapshot of all point-earning wallets. Once the snapshot is taken, a claim portal is activated where eligible users can convert points into TRWA.

While the mechanics may evolve over time, the current structure looks like this:

  1. Track engagement over a fixed season (3 months)

  2. Snapshot point balances at season close

  3. Convert points into TRWA based on the season’s emission cap

  4. Distribute TRWA via claim portal, with optional locking incentives

Airdrop events are not random. They’re announced in advance and tied to measurable activity.

Allocation Curve

TRWA from each season is distributed along a weighted curve — not 1:1 with points.

This avoids whales dominating the drop and ensures that smaller but consistent contributors are meaningfully rewarded.

Designs may include:

  • Weighted brackets that favor sustained engagement

  • Caps on maximum allocation per wallet

  • Bonus multipliers for early actions or multi-season participation

  • Optional boosts for locking or converting to sTRWA

Each season’s model will be disclosed ahead of time, including total emissions and distribution logic.

Airdrop Oversight

Airdrops in the early seasons — including Genesis — are coordinated by the Tharwa core contributors.

Future community governance via sTRWA may eventually guide:

  • Emission caps for each season

  • Conversion ratios

  • Eligibility criteria

  • Seasonal adjustments and exclusions

But for now, the focus is on delivering fair, transparent distributions that reward early alignment — while laying the groundwork for decentralization later.

Sybil Protection

Each season includes backend sybil resistance logic to protect against abuse, including:

  • Wallet clustering and behavioral heuristics

  • Anti-bounce LP score modifiers

  • Referral abuse detection

  • Potential disqualification for known exploit patterns

The intent is to make farming hard — and actual participation worthwhile.
