Users had to spend 10 minutes and $30 to get a potential OP token drop of the equivalent of $3000-$5000. The project rewarded early adopters (almost 250,000 users) for interacting with the blockchain (transactions, votes, proposals).

During the first drop from the project, a token was valued at $0.5-$1.2. At the peak, a token was valued at $3.

In total, the project distributed almost 215,000,000 tokens.

The largest drop received on the wallets was valued at 32,432 OP tokens which was worth almost $40,000 at listing.

The risk-reward was excellent, but there was also no huge hype and Optimism revived the airdrop strategy, which was adopted by top projects.
