The NFT event design of SmartMall is quite interesting 🤔
On the surface: Airdrop of 100,000 NFTs (worth 100U), binding address + locking 100U SMT can be claimed in 24 hours
In reality: This is a product experience funnel
Identity verification layer (binding address) → Filter bots, establish a social graph
Economic incentive layer (purchase SMT) → Helps you understand the dual-token model (GUP governance + SMT value)
Time lock layer (24 hours) → Forces you to pay attention to the platform, observe how the DAO operates
Value return layer (SMT return + NFT) → Acquire assets at zero cost, experience "participation equals ownership"
From a product design perspective, this is much smarter than mindless airdrops.
SmartMall is using this event to achieve user education + community filtering + cold start.
