# Airdrop

The moment everyone is waiting for is upon us.

**One epoch corresponds to one week.  The airdrop will last until the full budget has been distributed. There are 2,625,000 tokens to be distributed.**&#x20;

At the end of each epoch (each Sunday, at 11:59 PM UTC), Nested will airdrop NST to our users according to the formulas explained below.&#x20;

Those tokens won't be claimable until the TGE happens. Airdropped tokens will be claimable at TGE.&#x20;

For our first users who used Nested before the official announcement of the airdrop, we have something for you!&#x20;

There are two different formulas, one used for [#genesis-epoch](#genesis-epoch "mention")and another one for the [#others-epochs](#others-epochs "mention")

**These rules count for original and copied portfolios.**&#x20;

**Rules can be changed at the sole discretion of the team, and according to our users' feedback.**

**Original and copied portfolios that are worth less than 20 USD at each snapshot won't be taken into account at all for any snapshot – at any point in time.**&#x20;

**No one is ever sheltered from a hick-up on the tech side. So, in case of an issue, just know that the Nested team will do everything that** **it can to resolve it in the shortest timeframe possible.**&#x20;

**If you are facing an issue, please** [**join our Discord** ](https://discord.gg/VW8ZZsACzd)**and ask your question.**&#x20;

## For higher rewards on the Airdrop:

**If you are too lazy to scroll down and look at the formula, here is what you need to know.**

**NO NEED FOR MATH HERE - JUST READ!!!**

Our algorithm takes into account two sets of parameters that are time-sensitive:

1. The parameters relative to snapshots
2. The parameters relative to epochs

#### Definition of key terms:

* 1 snapshot = 1 hour
* 1 epoch = 1 week
* 1 epoch = 168 snapshots

### Take it like a competition

Imagine the epoch is a competition with a scoreboard.

The competition is divided into 168 snapshots.

You want to score the highest score possible at every event/snapshot for the highest reward at the end of the competition/epoch.

### How to score the highest possible?

The formula that computes your score for every event/snapshot looks at the following factors:

1. The total value of all your portfolios.
2. The total number of copies and their total value.
3. The diversity of networks used to build your portfolios: Ethereum, BNB Chain, Optimism, Arbitrum, Avalanche, etc.
4. The volume of activities – create, manage, copy, deposit, edit allocations, etc. – on Nested.&#x20;

Each event/snapshot lasts 1 hour, at the end of which scores are written down AND reset to 0 for the next event/snapshot.

Once the 168 snapshots of the competition/epoch are over, the formula computes your average score to determine your reward.

So if you were active + used all networks + had a high number of copies, + a high total value of all portfolios over the whole competition/epoch – this means that you did well, and your reward should be HIGH.

Potential scenarios:

* If you did well at the 168 events/snapshots => HIGH REWARD
* If you did well at 75 events/snapshots but sucked at the rest => MEDIUM REWARD
* If you did well at 10 events/snapshots but sucked at most => LOW REWARD

The Airdrop is a marathon, not a sprint.

THE KEY TO THE AIRDROP IS CONSISTENCY!!

Now go and be consistent with your trades.
