HODLer Airdrop Major Update: Snapshot Mechanism Upgraded, Airdrop Earnings Fully Enhanced

HODLer Airdrop is an exclusive free airdrop event for users holding GT (GateToken). Users only need to hold no less than 1 GT to share the airdrop tokens based on their holding proportion. We have fully upgraded the airdrop snapshot mechanism to provide you with a fairer opportunity to participate, a more transparent method for calculating returns, and more generous airdrop rewards.

**Update Highlights:**
**1.Snapshot Mechanism Upgrade:** We will track users' GT holdings throughout the entire airdrop period, taking multiple random snapshots every hour and calculating the hourly average. This effectively prevents short-term speculative behavior, allowing users with long-term stable holdings to receive more fair and generous airdrop rewards.

Assuming the airdrop event runs from April 1st at 08:00 to April 3rd at 08:00 (UTC), if User A clicks to participate at April 1st at 14:00 (UTC), the system will:
* Retrieve the holding data from April 1st 08:00 to April 1st 14:00 (UTC).
* Continuously record the holding data from April 1st 14:00 to April 3rd 08:00 (UTC).
* Calculate the hourly average holdings for the entire duration of the activity.

The reward calculation formula is as follows: The number of tokens ultimately received by the user = (User's average hourly holdings during the entire airdrop period / Average hourly holdings of all participating users during the entire airdrop period) × Total airdrop amount.

**2.Real-Time Profit Visualization:** 
We have introduced a new display for “Earnings per GT,” which visually shows the estimated airdrop earnings for holding 1 GT in the current project. This data will automatically update every hour to help you better plan your holding strategy. 
"Earnings per GT" is a valuation metric representing the expected number of airdrop tokens if you join the HODLer Airdrop with 1 GT and hold it until the end of the airdrop. The data will dynamically adjust in accordance with changes in the GT holdings of all participating users.
