Billions TGE Comes Closer ... After An Eternity Of Waiting
After an absolute eternity of waiting the snapshot #1 for Billions Rewards has officially been taken today! Here’s where things stand so far and what you need to know before the big day!
The eligibility criteria for top contributors has been shaped by a mix of community feedback and the team’s direction like a well oiled mechanism created after a layered evaluation.
The next snapshot is expected to land sometime before TGE which means there’s still room for last-minute positioning. Eligibility comes down to the overall combination of multiple variables.
Billions Power Points earned through verified referrals and daily check-ins are part of that equation, and I’m sitting at a solid Level 6 there. Not sure what will be the ratio!
Creators are also in line for rewards, although that’s not really the lane I’ve focused on. Discord participation is another factor, especially for users with roles and activity.
When it comes to X activity, I’ve definitely put in the time with plenty of posting, engaging, and a fair bit of “yapping”. If we’re being honest, the reward pool allocated there was relatively small.
Where I feel most confident is onchain activity and loyalty. I’m holding a Genesis NFT, I’ve built up a strong position with Supermasks NFTs, and I’m heavily staked in $POOL.
That’s where my conviction has been, and where most of my exposure sits. All in all it’s a bit of a mixed picture. Some areas feel solid, others feel uncertain.
It really comes down to how all these variables are weighted when the rewards distributed. Guess we’ll find out soon enough... but let's not ignore the elephant in the room!
But let's talk about the Billions capital launchpad on Kaito and how investors money where locked there since August 2025! This was the project’s first major public sale phase.
It ran for a while, giving participants a limited window to secure allocations! The system that wasn’t purely first-come-first-served but based on a mix of reputation, activity, and capital.
Unlike traditional IDOs, this launchpad leaned heavily into a hybrid model. Users had to connect their accounts, complete KYC, and commit USDC on Base to take part!
I added $1000 in the mix and waited for the final allocations to be determined by eligibility scores. Got a 100% allocation and waited since there for news about TGE!
The initial raise targeted just over $5 million at a valuation around $200 million, though that was later adjusted down to $100 million as conditions shifted. Another fiasco?
