Redistribute GTC to Individuals Who Could Not Claim Due to Error

Summary:

If this proposal passes, we plan to distribute 32,717.33 GTC using WhalerDAO’s Astro-Drop tool to the users below who were eligible for the GTC Airdrop in May 2021, tried to claim their GTC during the airdrop window, but were not able to claim due to an error in the system ingesting their transactions.

Abstract:

The GTC airdrop earlier this year was a great step towards the decentralization of the Gitcoin ecosystem. Unfortunately, there are several users who were eligible for the drop because they funded the project Force DAO before the cut-off date for the airdrop. However, due to an error in the transaction validator these users were unable to claim their tokens. Specifically, when these users went to claim their tokens within the 30-day airdrop window, they were not allocated a percent of GTC tokens for their donations to Force DAO. After speaking with users and investigating online, it seems that those transactions were incorrectly dropped before the airdrop period. After some of these users reported it, they eventually had their transactions re-added, but after the cut-off date. This proposal is looking to retroactively compensate those users who were not able to claim their GTC due to the error.

We will compensate the users linked below. All these users have demonstrated the necessary proof to be eligible for the airdrop and were responsive throughout the proposal process. We had two criteria in order to show eligible proof:

1. Proof of original donation which meets the original airdrop requirements
2. Proof of an attempted claim during the original airdrop period

If passed, we wish to distribute the specified amount (view linked pdf for exact amounts) through WhalerDAO’s Astro-Drop. The total amount of GTC to be distributed to these users is 32,717.33
