Points, snapshots and claims

When a project moves from points to a token, three important things happen: the snapshot, the launch and the claim. Here is how to handle them.

Points are not tokens

Many projects give points for activity. Points are an internal count: they may become tokens, but only if and how the project decides. Nobody can guarantee the exchange.

The snapshot

The snapshot is a picture of who did what at a precise date and time, often in UTC. What you did before it counts. Check the date given on the official site and on DROPiT.

Launch and claim

  1. The project announces the token launch (TGE) and usually a tool to check your allocation.
  2. Open the claim site only from the project's official link.
  3. Connect the same wallet you used for the activity.
  4. Keep a little of the network's coin to pay the claim fees.
  5. Check carefully what you sign before you confirm.

Deadlines

Some claims have a cut-off date. When we know it, we show it on the page and in the Updates section so you don't miss it.

Warning: After an announcement, fake claims circulate. Use only the project's official links, never ones received in a private message.
