The biggest concern for Web3 interactors is the witch 😭. Recently, the hot topic is aPriori (⚠️ it is the largest project in the MONAD ecosystem, aPriori has successfully completed $30 million in financing, and YZI LABS also participated). Many people are discussing the $APR airdrop witch issue.
Currently, in the testnet interactions, it is very difficult for any popular project to be completely free of witches, especially for projects like $APR that became an instant hit upon launch. But what really catches my attention is not the controversy itself, but the solution provided by the team.
aPriori did not choose to confront users head-on but instead offered a more pragmatic and community-friendly solution:
Greatly reduce the airdrop unlocking requirements on the Monad mainnet, making it easier for real users who have participated and patiently waited for the mainnet to claim their allocations. This is much better than a one-size-fits-all approach.
The team announced significant news:
On the day of the Monad mainnet launch, there will be an additional round of airdrops for the Monad community, with no lock-up and no cliffs, distributed based on social contributions and community participation rather than just interactions. This is considered a very clear incentive direction in the current environment where air interactions are rampant.
⚠️ All unclaimed, returned, or abandoned $APR will be reused for TVL incentives and ecosystem building, reserving for long-term growth after the mainnet.
Combining the recent project popularity, the team's continuous update rhythm, and the strong attention on $APR, I actually think this controversy has become a hot topic 🔥 allowing real users to gain greater advantages, with ecological incentives more focused on long-term value.
This wave of aPriori's brilliant operation is likely to satisfy users, so everyone should keep an eye on it.
