Intro (Long Live Points!)

TGE is coming 🔜 and to kick things off the Aperture INTENTional campaign is starting on March 25th alongside a full brand refresh (new logo who dis!). At ETH Denver we released our Litepaper detailing our plan for AI Powered Intents. But users don’t need to wait until the future to leverage Intents or AI — our INTENTional campaign will reward users for tapping solvers to manage their V3 liquidity and using our chatbot to explore Aperture’s docs and more.

This is Aperture’s first and most important airdrop epoch! In the past we have done liquidity mining for ApertureSwap and ran a private beta for Liquidity Intents. The total allocation across these campaigns was less than 2%.

The total supply of Aperture’s token that will be airdropped, fully vested, at TGE is 7%.

  • 4.2% is for the INTENTional campaign
  • 2.8% is for a snapshot based airdrop to LPs and $UNI delegates

Duration

We do not intend for this to be a long drawn out campaign. We will end the campaign as soon as TGE happens or once we cross 10 billion in Intents Volume. As of March 20th, 2024 we are just over 1.5 billion in Intents Volume.

Pyramid Scheme-onomics

Users will need a referral link to join the campaign. A select group of OGs will be seeding the initial links. Be on the lookout for one. But, SAFETY first! Official Referral Links will look like this:

https://app.aperture.finance/campaign?intentCode=123ABC

Referrals: points go up if you refer frens

20% for primary referrals (aka direct referral)

  • If you refer a user you get a bonus equal to 20% of their points

10% for secondary referrals (aka referrals on referrals)

  • If your referral refers another user you get a bonus equal to 10% of their points

If you have more than 100 primary referrals you will become an INTENT Master and will receive an additional 20% boost from all referrals.

  • for example — if by the end of the campaign you have 100 primary referrals and all your primary and secondary referrals earned you 100,000 points then you would receive an additional 20,000 points on top of the 100,000 existing points.

How to Earn?

  • Social media follows (+30), having an OG role (+1,000), or holding a Renew NFT from the Manta Renew campaign will get you a predetermined specified number of points.
  • Following on Twitter and joining our Discord are required before you can earn points from referrals or other actions.
  • Various actions and transactions across Aperture’s dapp will earn you an unspecified number of points.
  • Transactions like swapping, rebalancing, reinvesting will earn points.
  • Declaring intents with a gassless declaration like setting up a recurring rebalancor strategy or a limit order will also earn points.

Retroactive Points

  • If you deposited into one of our Avalanche PDN vault in 2023 you will receive +200 points
  • All previous activity on Aperture since July 2023 will also be counted! So existing users will have a healthy bootstrapped amount of points.

What about our Terra OGs?

The largest points drop is the 1,000 bonus for our certified Terra OGs. To become a Terra OG you must join our Discord and bind your old Terra wallet used on Aperture’s Terra vaults with the 0x address you wish to use for the INTENTional campaign. Once our mods verify your participation on Terra you will get the OG role and will receive an additional 1,000 points!

Manta Renew Campaign and NFTs

Actions performed on ApertureSwap on Manta L2 will receive more points.

NFTs from Manta’s Renew Campaign will also convert into points. This includes any of the following NFTs:

Common NFTs:

  • Solver Seeker
  • Intent Architect
  • Network Pioneer
  • Automation Vanguard

Legendary NFT:

  • Genesis Solver

Raffle-nomics (Points Boost)

Users can also get boosts by playing the raffle (raffle-nomics)

  1. Every user can get one free raffle draw after they share a pre-made tweet containing their referral link on Twitter
  2. For every 10,000 points a user earns, he or she can get an additional click of the raffle button.

The raffle has the following rewards ranked in order of rareness:

  • +500 points (50% chance)
  • +1,000 points (30% chance)
  • +2,000 points (12% chance)
  • +3,000 points (5% chance)
  • +5,000 points (2% chance)
  • +10,000 points (1% chance)
