Join a squad, deposit in D2 platform, get EDA airdrop

TL;dr: https://www.edamame.fun/

Community Rewards: 50% of EDA, our Berachain native token, will be distributed as rewards, primarily to eBERA, our flagship vault on Berachain. Rewards will be distributed through multiple seasons and mechanisms.

Being an EARLY Bera: Before eBERA goes live, you can participate in EDA Points Season 1 by becoming a D2 Ranger, joining a D2 Ranger Squad, or joining a D2 Partner Squad (details below).

Ranger Squad NFT Airdrops: D2 Rangers will receive NFTs to distribute to their squad about one week before the Berachain mainnet launch.

Objective: If you help to increase the overall pie (D2 Strategy Vault deposits) you get a bigger slice of EDA rewards.

https://www.edamame.fun/ is live! Check out the high-level details on the homepage. The leaderboard will be gradually upgraded, and no wallet connection is required… for now.

Steps:

  1. Join the D2 Finance Discord: https://t.co/DmmiXJX9nM
  2. Find a D2 Ranger and join their squad, alternatively you can become a D2 Ranger by holding 50,400 xD2, or join a D2 Finance Berachain partner squad (list to be published when finalized).
  3. Ranger Squads will have a separate channel in discord to register and manage the team
  4. Deposit Funds into one of the D2 Finance Managed Strategy Vaults, stay tuned for deposit dates:
  • ETH++
  • ARB++
  • dgnETH
  • d2ETH, D2USDC

4. Up to 169 wallets will receive the airdrop (assuming 20 Ranger Squads)

  • 20 Rangers
  • 80 Ranger Team members
  • 69 Partner Squad wallets

6. Based on total xD2 holding and vault deposits, the top 10 squads will receive proportional airdrop.

  1. 1st Place: 24.75%
  2. 2nd Place: 17.82%
  3. 3rd Place: 14.85%
  4. 4th Place: 11.88%
  5. 5th Place: 9.90%

FAQ

  1. Benefits for a Ranger:

Boost your EDA allocation if squad members hold xD2 or deposit in D2 vaults (and you are in the top 10).

Example:

  • A Ranger has $50k in xD2
  • Squad Member 1: Acquires $10k in ARB++
  • Squad Member 2: Acquires $30k in xD2
  • Squad Member 3: Acquires $5k in dgnETH
  • Squad Member 4: Acquires $5k in dgnETH

The Ranger Squad has 100k USDC worth of eligible assets.

Say this is enough to be third on the ranking, the example squad will receive 14.85% and the Ranger would get half of it (7.425% of the airdrop destined to the squads)

2. Benefits for Ranger Squad:

Squad members receive EDA airdrops based on their squad Rank and their contribution to the team.

Assuming same example of 7.425% of the total airdrop:

  • Squad Member 1: 1.49%
  • Squad Member 2: 4.46%
  • Squad Member3: 0.74%
  • Squad Member4: 0.74%

That is, if you manage to join a well Ranked team, you have amplified upside.

3. Squad NFT eligibility:

Ideally the system allows new users to check out D2 Finance strategies, but Rangers can allocate squad NFTs to existing xD2 holders or vault holders to boost their EDA airdrop.

WEN:

Season one ends about one week before the Berachain mainnet launch. You will need to finalize your squad by then. As default D2 Rangers at that date will get 4 NFTs with their discord nickname as name of the squad.

5) Vaults Available During Quest:

ETH++, ARB++, dgnETH, d2ETH, D2USDC will be open for deposits and all have the same 1x multiplier.

That will change once eBERA will be Live.

6) Ranger strategies:

  • Rangers can choose to keep NFTs for future seasons if they don’t find suitable candidates for their squad.
  • Rangers can technically sell NFTs, but its squad would not increase their rank if the receiver doesn’t invest in D2 products.
  • If you do not form a squad your slice will likely get diluted, but the Pie is potentially bigger, so you could benefit in a completely passive approach

7) Joining Another Ranger Squad:

Rangers can choose to partner with another Ranger, but if the squad captain is no longer a Ranger, they will lose their points.

8) Becoming a Ranger from a Squad:

If you join a Ranger squad, as long as the Captain is still a Ranger by the end of Seasons 1, you can become a Ranger with the original requirement reduced by half (thus 25,200 xD2 requirement).

11) Finding a Team:

Rangers can connect with first-hand connections or check periodically published lists of potential team members based on on-chain positions.
