Ecosystem Early Adopter Program

Watr’s Mission is to make Watr Protocol the public blockchain home that connects commodity flows with a vibrant ecosystem of new and traditional participants.

The first priority is to encourage the deployment of commodity and asset flows on the blockchain and kickstart a self-sustaining ecosystem. To that end, the Watr Foundation is backing an incentive program to give early participants the chance to earn WATR tokens and non-token incentives commensurate with their willingness to drive growth.

Highlights

Token Table

100 million tokens estimated

being made available for early adopters and allocated to asset flow incentives.

  • A staggered token distribution skewed towards earliest adopters.
  • A number of specially curated non-token incentives managed by Watr Ecosystem developer: Neo Holdings.

Benefits

  • Ability to access collator rewards and governance benefits through token holding.
  • Opportunities to shape the requirements for the bilateral trade marketplace.
  • The d’apps and ecosystem will naturally favor the earliest participant flows and use cases deployed on the protocol.
  • Brand marketing value to be a pioneer in the first-ever executed buy/sells on blockchain.
  • Be a founding participant in the new home for commodities with purpose built, focused UX.
  • The Watr testnet environment is the perfect safe place for interested participants not yet familiar with the space to deploy code, test ideas and educate internally.
  • Participants will have the opportunity to contribute to the Watr community calls – raising core topics and subjects relevant to their use cases and requirements.
