- I feel that recently, there have been many different ways of distributing airdrops, but it has been revealed that the airdrop calculation will be: LXP x GAS. If we look back at how LXP is earned from Linea, we can see that the method doesn’t involve making many transactions or increasing volume. Therefore, the gas cost will be significantly reduced. During times when gas fees are high, no one cares about making transactions or increasing volume if there are no rewards in Linea’s tasks. This results in users not having a significant amount of gas.

If we continue using the LXP x GAS method, it shows that the process isn’t clear or transparent when compared to Linea’s tasks.

The LXP x GAS calculation becomes even more unfair when two people have 7k LXP but their gas points differ. For example, one person spends $100 on gas, and another person spends $300 on gas → this shows that I earned LXP and held NFTs to get 7k LXP with just $100, while my friend earned 7k LXP with $300. That’s their choice or business, but we both have the same amount of LXP.

The LXP x GAS calculation is also unfair between those who hold many NFTs and those who use gas. For example, I have 3k LXP, but I’ve bought 2 Tier 1 NFTs, 2 Tier 2 NFTs, and 3 Tier 3 NFTs. All of these NFTs cost me $1,500 at the average price at the time. Altogether, I have 7k LXP with an investment cost of $1,700. Meanwhile, my friend only spent $300 on gas to get 7k LXP. But if the project calculates LXP x GAS, it’s unfair to me because the value I hold is in the NFTs, not in the gas.

Therefore, I think the fairest way to distribute airdrops would be by tier, based on token and segment, with those who have NFTs in the same segment. That way, it’s the most fair and aligns with Linea’s LXP earning model. It stays true to the project’s intentions, and it’s clear and transparent. Thank you.
