Popcorn Airdrop to Yearn Users

Popcorn Proposal: https://forum.popcorn.network/t/pop-airdrop-to-strategic-partners/637

Summary:

This proposal aims to increase participation in PopcornDAO’s decentralized governance by airdropping to strategic partners in the crypto and DeFi ecosystem. The proposal seeks to invite active community members and contributors from other DAO’s of protocols that Popcorn is currently collaborating with or planning to collaborate with in the future. The goal of the airdrop is to convert users from other DAO’s that have historically staked their tokens and participated in governance, and by virtue of airdropping, generate awareness for Popcorn and the utility of the POP token.

WHAT IS POPCORN?

Popcorn is an audited, non-custodial DeFi wealth manager with liquid asset strategies that simultaneously funds nonprofits and social impact organizations.

Abstract:

DAO’s consist of token holders that are eligible and incentivized to participate in governance to help achieve its vision. Token issuance and distribution are required to create a DAO and airdrops serve as a vehicle for increasing the size of the community as well as furthering decentralization. Airdrops also serve as an integral component in marketing strategy as a recruiting tool to attract active members from other DAO’s to participate in Popcorn’s decentralized governance.

Motivation:

A larger and more engaged community that can help PopcornDAO create positive global impact via permissionless and non-custodial yield-generating products is the goal. Recipients are encouraged to stake their POP to participate in PopcornDAO governance.

POP is a governance token that aligns incentives across all stakeholders including users, POP token holders, non-profit beneficiaries, the core team, advisors, and partners.

Token holders participating in Popcorn governance such as beneficiary nominations and grant elections must stake and lock POP for vlPOP to receive non-transferable voice credits. The longer token holders lock their tokens, the more voice credits are earned and the greater their claim to POP rewards. In addition, participating in beneficiary governance also offers token holders a chance to earn even more POP tokens through “Vote Mining” incentives.

Concerning Popcorn’s DeFi products, vlPOP holders will be able to:

  • Vote on which products receive POP emissions
  • Vote on how much POP is directed towards products
  • Earn staking rewards (trading fees)
  • Earn boosted rewards on products depending on a user’s voting power
  • Receive Airdrops
