DOP’s mainnet is almost live — and with it we will launch an exciting campaign designed to encourage our community to use the protocol to its full potential.

A staggering 545,000 users were eligible for rewards after completing tasks during our testnet phase, and we’re expecting even more enthusiasm for the mainnet reward campaign.

As well as raising awareness about our selective transparency features — tools that’ll transform what it’s like to own and transact with crypto — DOP wants to thank early adopters of our ecosystem for their support and belief.

The mere fact you’re reading this blog post makes you one of our early adopters. Here, we’re going to reveal all of the rewards that are up for grabs, and how you can make a claim.

A grand total of 460,000,000 DOP tokens are being allocated to this mainnet campaign — that’s 2% of our total supply — and this will be shared equally between two phases.

Without any further ado, here’s what V1 has in store.

Use DOP, get DOP 

During the first campaign, you’ve got an irresistible opportunity to earn a share of 230,000,000 DOP tokens. 

The exact amount you’ll be eligible to receive will be based on how much you use the protocol — and points are available for a variety of activities. The more points, the bigger your airdrop.

As you’ll no doubt know by now, Data Ownership Protocol allows all ERC-20 tokens to be encrypted, meaning they are no longer visible on public block explorers. This offers huge advantages from a confidentiality and security perspective.

For every $1 worth of assets you encrypt, one point will be earned. Let’s imagine that you conceal 1,000 USDT using our infrastructure. This will mean you earn 1,000 points to put toward the mainnet reward campaign. Better still, the fee for encrypting assets comes in at just 0.1% — meaning that, for this initial transaction, it’ll cost just $1.

Now let’s talk about the rewards on offer for decrypting assets — meaning they are publicly visible once again. It’s a process that can be completed in a couple of clicks through our interface (which you are probably deeply familiar with if you took part in our testnet.) The points on offer are just as easy to understand. Here, you’ll get 0.5 points for every $1 decrypted. In an example transaction involving 1,000 USDC, you’d earn 500 points with a fee of just $1.

DOP also allows fellow users within the ecosystem to transfer funds to others — securely, confidentially, and safe in the knowledge they won’t come into contact with tainted crypto. Each transaction will earn 20 points for the sender.

Of course, DOP wants to spread the word about the unprecedented transparency, flexibility and control now on offer to crypto users everywhere, built on the world’s second-largest blockchain. To that end, bonuses are also available whenever you refer someone to see what our protocol is all about — meaning you’ll earn the equivalent of an extra 10% of the points your referrals earn. Your contacts will benefit too, with a 100-point bonus as soon as they encrypt their first asset.

That’s not all. The active users during our mainnet airdrop campaign will also receive special badges in recognition of their achievements. Following us on Telegram, X and Discord means you can unlock a Social Badge and add 300 points to your balance. Meanwhile, a new badge unlocks for every $10,000 you encrypt — with each delivering another 300 points. Put differently, encrypting $30,000 means you’ll amass a whopping 900 points. Finally, a new badge and an additional 300 points are available for every 50 send transactions completed. DOP’s campaign is designed to reward power users the most — and as you can see, points can add up quickly.

Last but not least, let’s talk about the rewards that will be on offer when staking is introduced. You can earn 0.05 points for each DOP that’s staked for 24 hours — with a 10% bonus on top of that if this crypto is continuously locked away for 30 days. This means someone who stakes 10,000 DOP would earn 500 points each day, or 15,000 over the course of a month. Once the bonus is factored in, that surges to 16,500 points. 

There’s another way of supercharging the points you receive even further: by getting your hands on one of the NFTs in our Road to Mainnet series. These Galxe NFTs are designed like the royalty in a card deck, and multiply the points earned during this campaign by up to 20%. They were earned by early adopters who completed a series of challenges during the testnet phase — but don’t worry if you missed out, as they can be purchased on secondary markets.

How to claim׳

All of this means there are 8 different ways to earn DOP during this mainnet campaign. And the more active you are, the bigger the reward at the end.

When it comes to the fees charged for encrypting and decrypting crypto assets and NFTs, 75% will be used to buy back and burn DOP tokens — reducing the number in circulation as demand continues to rise. The remaining 25% will be used to incentivize stakers.

Once the first phase of the campaign concludes at a later date — which is yet to be confirmed — you’ll be able to claim your hard-earned rewards by completing a proof-of-humanity process. Of course, we’ll be providing full details of how this will work on our blog and social pages.

Now’s the time to start benefiting from our selective transparency tools, and receive some free DOP for doing so. And with a whole second phase of our campaign in the pipeline — meaning another 230,000,000 tokens will be up for grabs — it pays to be involved.
