# Community Airdrop

The Ocelex community airdrop is designed to reward early adopters and aligned community members, ensuring long-term ecosystem stability and active participation. This document outlines the eligibility criteria, token distribution process, and the key benefits of participating in the airdrop program.

***

### Airdrop Allocation Overview

To promote long-term protocol alignment, 50% of Ocelex’s initial token supply has been allocated for strategic airdrops. This ensures the protocol’s early supporters are rewarded while fostering a committed user base.

**Allocation Breakdown:**

* 45% – $veLYNX Holders (subject to eligibility criteria, of locks must be >1 year)
* 5% – Engaged users from partner communities, including: Thena on BNB, Aerodrome on Base, Velodrome on Optimism and Fenix on Blast.&#x20;

Additionally, 2.5% from the ‘Partner Activations’ token supply will be distributed through Zircuit’s Launchpool.

### Eligibility Criteria for $veLYNX Holders

To ensure fair and meaningful participation, only $veLYNX holders who meet specific criteria are eligible for the airdrop.

**Eligibility Requirements:**

1. Minimum Lock Period:

* Holders must have locked $veLYNX for at least one year prior to the snapshot on the 30th of November.

2. Voting Power-Based Rewards:

* Airdrop amounts will be proportional to voting power, not simply the number of tokens held. Longer locks result in higher voting power, leading to larger rewards.
