BUILD is more than a memecoin. It's an onchain builder economy, with a fair-launched token, a decentralized community and a powerful brand.
Visit build.top/airdrop1 to see your potential $BUILD token allocation. Claiming $BUILD tokens will open on June 12th, for most eligible users, and stay open until June 30th. No need to rush.
Let's push for a collective commitment of >50% on Airdrop 1 and keep building. We're just getting started. If we all commit, BUILD can really succeed!
All tokens committed go to the BUILD Summer Fund, and will be redistributed to builders during Onchain Summer, while we work on Airdrop 2.
Building is hard and should be nurtured. That's why BUILD exists, to help discover and reward onchain builders with both social and financial capital.
But what's a builder?
We believe that anyone can be a builder, but becoming one requires courage, creativity and commitment:
Courage: taking risks, accepting challenges and pushing boundaries.
Creativity: curiosity, optimism and creating value.
Commitment: effort, accountability and the resilience to keep building.
If your vibe is generosity, collaboration, and finding new builders to connect with, the BUILD community is for you. Builder is an attitude, not a skill or a role.
Don't forget to mint the Manifesto for Onchain Builders.
BUILD is more than a memecoin, it's an onchain builder economy, that includes a fair-launched token, a decentralized community and a powerful brand.
We believe all builders deserve some recognition, but most builders are still unknown, while popular builders get most of the credit. BUILD Airdrop 1 was our answer to this problem, and aimed at reaching as many builders as possible and setting a baseline reputation for the BUILD community. The airdrop was a successful first experiment, allowing us to reach 200K+ people.
BUILD Airdrop 2 will be about building a sustainable and decentralized builder economy. We plan to run experiments around UBI (Universal Builder Income), that can reward committed builders with both social and financial capital. Because even a small reward can motivate builders to keep building.
The BUILD economy runs on nominations to redistribute value, and is designed to power more builder activity onchain. Funds enter the economy from organizations and sponsors that want to appeal to builders, and also from individuals that want to give back to a new generation of builders.
Airdrop 1 was a successful first experiment, but BUILD is just getting started. Now the community has a choice: we either commit or quit.
We can commit to grow BUILD into a real onchain builder economy 🫡
Or we can all claim our $BUILD tokens and quit this experiment
A collective commitment of >50% from Airdrop 1 (75B $BUILD), will be a very strong signal for the team to keep building during Onchain Summer, and to start preparing Airdrop 2 for September.
BUILD is only sustainable if we continue to pay it forward.
All $BUILD committed goes to the BUILD Summer Fund (details below).
The more $BUILD you commit, the more reputation you are building
Visit build.top/airdrop1 to see your potential $BUILD token allocation for Airdrop 1. Claiming $BUILD tokens will open on June 12th, for most eligible users, and stay open until June 30th, so no need to rush.
In the claiming flow, you will be presented with 3 options:
Commit 100% of your token allocation to the BUILD Summer Fund.
Airdrop allocation multiplier applied to tokens committed.
Participate in BUILD governance (in the future).
BUILD Budget for future airdrops based on tokens committed.
Featured in new leaderboard, ranked by tokens committed.
Commit 50% of your token allocation to the BUILD Summer Fund.
Claim 50% of $BUILD tokens now, with allocation multiplier.
BUILD Budget for future airdrops based on tokens committed.
Featured in a new leaderboard, ranked by tokens committed.
Wait another week, and claim tokens only on June 18th.
Allocation multiplier is not considered.
Lower BUILD budget for the next airdrops.
Tokens committed from Airdrop 1 will be redistributed to builders during the summer, using new variations of the nominations game. This will give the team time to prepare a great Airdrop 2 experience. It's important to move fast, but also not to rush things.
Currently, our summer priorities are:
Make nominations more natural and intrinsic-driven, for example by tagging @buildbot on Farcaster to nominate.
Receive notifications via Farcaster Direct Casts and XMTP.
Promote more composability, by improving the BUILD API and creating more public bounties to integrate with BUILD.
Kick-off ecosystem grants, to reward builders that are actively contributint to make BUILD better.
Create fun ways to spend $BUILD tokens and points, for example merch or lotteries.
Organize or sponsor IRL meetups. There's 2 already events planned, one for Lisbon (June 29-30) and another for Brussels (July 12).
Will you quit or commit?

Gm! I need your feedback... Some of you have been asking about price stability. The things I can do to control it are limited, but one idea is to make the season rewards payouts slowly drip out over time rather than all at once. I think 30 days would suffice. Do you support this? Do you hate it? lmk below!
I LOVE THIS
I like what $build did, the offered incentive to people who didn’t cash out
Do you happen to have a link to an explanation of how that worked? I'm curious about the details.
I will try to find and send you dm
I sent you dm Also maybe ask @macedo
check here: https://paragraph.xyz/@macedo/build-announcement-4 happy to answer any questions you might have 🫡
see this more details here https://www.build.top/airdrop1
There is one major difference though. Many of us purchased farther to be eligible as opposed to build. So I would expect people to be willing to receive some amount of cash. But allowances might be boosted for who hold higher balances. Ham does it I think.
That’s is true, but of course it will be an option. Each can decide, same as with build.
About ham: I hold tn100x, nft, ham punks - and my allowance is ridiculous. It’s around $1.5 Not sure where it’s going, but I certainly don’t have much faith in it now
In recent weeks, all coins have fallen in price while Farther has continued to rise, due to people's interest in acquiring enough to distribute tips. I think that new measures should be designed to encourage people who are believing in the currency, and not to penalize them. Whatever is thought of should serve as a stimulus for more people to want to buy farther, while at the same time rewarding those who have it and hold.
Good feedback thank you!
Welcome ✨
I agree with this.
We love things to be announce beforehand not a surprise adjustment. I suggest you can apply it from next season or give people hold more got more allowance(this will help whale dumping to own just enough 100K for the tip) and make more sense
Do not support it
I do not support vesting. We should try other means like what $build did and/or what degen will be doing (the more you hold, the higher your allowance is) Or introduce a new paradigm in which a minimum of farther should be in your wallet in order to be eligible for season 1 airdrop. We should onboard more people to the ecosystem and decrease the farther needed to 50k instead of 100k and just reward big holders higher allowance. Thanks for listening to your community! This is a great step for the project 🙏 We love it! 🥰
Maybe give people an option, they can claim it all right away or vest for 30 days and get a multiplier so they’ll earn even more
This is an interesting idea. Like I've held my degen for almost 3 season, but haven't had any "reward" for doing that.
I think this is great idea @farther
Support anything that helps keep the token healthy ✨
Personally, I would just let them go out all at once. You may get less interest in tipping and buying enough farther to tip if you put too many constraints on receiving rewards. But I’m here for the long run regardless so wouldn’t directly affect me.
Agree with u
agree!!!
@macedo what are the plans for Season 2?
Check here: https://paragraph.xyz/@macedo/build-announcement-4?#h-build-summer-fund
Airdrop 1 is now fully unlocked for eligible users. If you don't want to commit any tokens, you can claim your $BUILD (without allocation multiplier) until June 30th. There's also news regarding governance and first payments to contributors. https://paragraph.xyz/@macedo/build-announcement-5
great update and loved reading inline from the feed!
@buildbot nom
@buildbot nominate
are there people like that?
beware of scam!
Is there any way to change the claiming wallet? Haven't claimed because of the error when not using the FC one
Hey @miguelgarest.eth For now, the only solution we have is using your FC custody address to claim. We will reassess the scale of this issue after June 30th and decide how to process from there.
@miguelgarest.eth please fill this form, so we can help you with the Farcaster custody address issue, after June 30th. We will need to create a airdrop new smart contract, with your new address whitelisted. Thanks! https://app.deform.cc/form/2d5c0428-f0e1-47d2-b352-30971dfb5cb7/
Is the wallet claiming issue fixed? Not the one where we need to enter seedphrase in different wallets to claim...
We don't have another solution at the moment. We will reassess the scale of this issue after June 30th and decide how to process from there.

I've been tryna commit all my rewards but I keep getting this metamask warning to proceed with transaction (like:higher fees may imply) proceeding to sign the txn...could take over $10 in Eth base Is that how it's meant to be ? @macedo
that means the nfts that we have for voting on the party.app have no value, right?
Bro, I want to commit 100% but a warning message always appears like in the bottom corner of the screenshot.
This week I built an Airdrop claiming mechanism for /build, that tried to persuade people to commit (aka donate) half or all of their token allocation. In less than 48h, 26k people already committed 67B $BUILD tokens, and claimed another 27B (from a total of 150B allocated to Airdrop 1). All tokens committed will be redistributed to builders during the summer, using new variations of the nominations game. Note: to claim all their tokens, participants need to wait until June 18th. https://paragraph.xyz/@macedo/build-announcement-4
happy to commit. Lets Build! 500 $degen
based
I am pumped by how you are running this Great stuff
Based on
now that we committed all our tokens back, will we be able to put in requests/proposals for allocation or is it all going to be nomination based?
it will be nomination based, but if you have ideas/proposals on how to better allocated these tokens to reward great builders, please let us know
Be interesting to think through normalizing the popularity vote by trickling down any over voted nominees to lower-ranked nominees. (ie: if the top 20 have X% over the average votes then the overage is redistributed but not affecting their rank) &/or categorize nominees into groups like Developer, Leader, Creator, and Viber to allow nominees to add another layer of builder identification. 🤔 🤷
let's collaborate → /herocast open-source Farcaster client for power users with active contributors https://github.com/hero-org/herocast/
200 $ degen
200 $degen
🥂🥂🥂
curious what % of the tokens for Airdrop 1 still need to be allocated (i.e., across split, commit, claim)?
The moment of truth is here! Airdrop 1 claiming is live 🫡 I committed 100% of my airdrop to the /build summer fund 🫡 Will you quit or commit? PS: it can take ~15-20 seconds to trigger your wallet and sign the transaction after.
Let's push for a collective commitment of >50% and keep building. All tokens committed will be redistributed to builders during the summer, using new variations of the nominations game. We call it the BUILD Summer Fund. Read more here: https://paragraph.xyz/@macedo/build-announcement-4?#h-build-summer-fund
Heroku application error 😅
working on it
site crash?:(
Let's go! Committing my 100% too.
*if the website ever loads up :) Seem like a lot of people are trying to claim
working on it
19000 $DEGEN for building something thoughtful and impactful. Excited to see where it goes 💛
All in! We do a little committing to the Summer fund ☀️
having issues with wallets... shows my allocation but then i click 100% and it says some random 0x is my wallet and throws an error.
The site is down for me...
working on it
Thank you, take the time you need!
It is fixed now! Thanks!
I can't access the website @macedo 👀
Same…
I missed season 1. but im committing to season 2!
hey i keep getting this error when i commit.. what should i do?
I've been highly impressed with what @macedo has done to create an onchain builder economy, and I will be committing 100% of my airdrop to the /build summer fund. 🫡 Will you quit or commit? (Read more 👇.) https://paragraph.xyz/@macedo/build-announcement-4?referrer=0x58a35cf59d5c630c057af008a78bc67cdc2ec094
Congrats and appreciate your support ser! 👏
Lfg! Looks amazing! 😻
Builders 🫡 An initial version of the Airdrop 1 claiming flow is live. Check your final $BUILD allocation. We still want to do another round of testing before enabling the claim button. Shipping at 2am is never a good option. Thanks for your patience and support! https://paragraph.xyz/@macedo/build-announcement-4
not sleeping until we'all get paid jk lmaooo congrats on the airdrop macedo
at least me and @leal.eth should get some hours of sleep. For your sake 😅 thanks for the support
greyed out for me so far. really like the multiplier, makes it so one has a multiplier if they commit back and don't if one just withdraws. changes the game for the withdraw/commit decision
Thanks for all of your work on this!
Awesome! Happy to wait till you’re ready.
Pretty awesome experience. Excited to see what comes next! 1000 $DEGEN
great job @macedo and the team! gonna be commit half of mine 🫡
Something is up. I should meet a couple of the criteria
Congrats, well executed!
Hi Filipe, I’m getting an error when trying to commit my claim! Any idea how to fix this? I have tried both laptop and mobile and both rainbow and metamask wallets.
Looks like the maths are not good, right? 🤔
yes, the 10 in “$BUILD Allocation” should be a 5 🤦♂️ but the allocation number is correct
And also 2M * 5 != 66M I don't understand where the 66M comes from 🤔
