Nexus airdrop (retrodrop): guideline activities

We also farmed points during Phase 3 of the testnet, took part in the "Node Runners 1" and "Node Runners 2" campaigns, and ran nodes.

Now, the project has distributed tiny $NEX drop amounts directly to accounts on the Nexus network. However, you can’t withdraw them yet because there’s no working bridge from Nexus to any other network.

Unfortunately, the drop has been a huge disappointment everyone received pennies. The sudden listing gave the project no time to prepare for the token distribution, which is why the bridge from Nexus to BSC or Ethereum is currently non-functional.

We previously farmed points in Phase 3 of the Nexus testnet and took part in the Node Runners 1 campaign, followed later by Node Runners 2.

Now the project has officially announced the end of the testnet and shared the final results

✅Testnet Highlights:

• The network grew to 1.5M nodes in just 5 days
• Up to 100,000 nodes were running simultaneously
• Total computing power reached 6 quadrillion FLOPS
• Over 2.5 trillion computations were executed
• 2.6M users participated in the testnet
• 96 partners joined the ecosystem
• The tech stack was upgraded to zkVM 3.0

Nexus is now preparing for the mainnet launch and will share more details soon
