I am also very disappointed with the Airdrop decision which does not look broadly at uniswap users as a whole, shouldn’t every uniswap user have the same opportunity in the Airdrop? I have used Uniswap on 1/9/2020, is it also not eligible to get UNI Airdrop claims? Please respond.  
the following details

Exactly. The distribution _did not_ reward all the users who had used Uniswap before it was announced. It rewarded a majority, but not all. Users who used Uniswap in early September, before the announcement, were left out.

“The distribution was meant to reward all the users who had used Uniswap before it was announced, this automatically makes the community more loyal to the system to a degree.”

However, the distribution did not reward all users prior the date of official announcement and some people were left out because a random date has been decided as the deadline solely by the Uniswap management. Since this decision has been taken without any sort of democratic process or referendum, it just led this group of people to question the trustworthiness and fairness of the platform.

As I’ve managed communities for tech companies/start-up’s and executed massive give-aways previously in my professional work-life, I’ve figured out there’s only one rule you never should break and that’s staying fair to each and every member of your community.

Especially if you are trying to be a cutting-edge decentralized platform you shouldn’t leave anyone behind because of a random decision that hasn’t been taken by the community itself.

I’m really surprised they haven’t already anticipated all these consequences while staying completely fair was as easy as setting the “official date of announcement” as the deadline. Very unprofessional approach tbh.

THIS WAS THE BEST UNEXPECTED EVENT THAT MADE SO MANY PEOPLE HAPPY!!  
YOU COULDN’T BEAT THIS!

Imagine you live in a poor country and used uniswap once and now got a year salary for free!!  
MAN THIS IS THE BEST PR EVER!!

I really do not get the attitude of people like you. Are you scared that the price might do down? That can happen anyway, it is happening right now.

What is the problem in making more users happy? yes users, people that used the platform exactly like you without have idea about the airdrop. I do not read the same bad things against people with multiple accounts.

Taking a position against September users is just selfish, that’s it

tough? Do you realise how many people would be missing out? It’s not socialism, you didn’t have to be rich to use uniswap. You only had to pay a gas price.

If anything, the sushiswap saga, has greatly helped uniswap.  
Just compare the numbers before and after the sushi event.

On chain data confirms that use spiked after the announcement, and the average transaction was a single transfer. The locked asset amount forms a near perfect bell curve from September 1st to September 13th.

That distribution of locked assets indicates a deliberate attempt to get free money. Particularly when looking at the amount of BTC locked up following the announcement.

I’ll run an analysis in the morning with exact numbers for all of the above requested data, in the meantime, filter the Uniswap contract on etherscan to accounts 1st-15th receiving wBTC.

Another simple metric to look at is the average nonce of the transactions between 1st-15 vs all-time.

The play by play of deposits shows a high number of even amounts (1, 3, 5 BTC) deposited from multiple addresses at regular intervals. This is a whale move, breaking a large amount of BTC up to maximize number of ETH wallets tied to Uniswap.

You can’t base a decision solely on making more users happy. A change to please bandwagon lowers the integrity of a community.

Remember the Eternal September of 1993?

Look at the volume per accounts from the 1st to the 15th, compared to before and after, we are discussing a resolution to give governance to whales, not “making more users happy”.

I’m pleased for myself and can’t see why the love can’t be spread a bit more from any unclaimed amounts. Even if those who were trading the first two weeks of September received 50% it would be a wonderful gesture.

Why September 15th? I mean now that people know that we’re looking at moving the date forward from what the original team that bootstrapped this amazing system intended… Why not give every uniswap owner until the end of 2020 UNI?

There’s a fixed number of tokens and allocations to groups were made with a specific date in mind. Have you given consideration that the date was chosen for a reason?

I have yet to see data or hear a sufficient argument as to why the 1st was chosen and/or why the the deadline of the announcement can’t be added.

Maybe a KYC for those wallets could help to isolate the whale wallets from other ones?  
One user - one wallet.

It’s really hard for the honest users who tried Uniswap for the first time in the early September and get kicked out from The Airdrop.

I personally wouldn’t have a problem with a KYC.
