Wilder World DAO Vote

📅 On April 3rd, we announced an important proposal to hold a Wilder World DAO vote on the best way to definitively conclude The Odyssey rewards program.

---

❓ Why is this important?

The Odyssey began as a three-part community rewards campaign to engage, create, and explore. While we initially had high hopes for the program, the spirit of The Odyssey changed as large-scale farming and bot activity took hold, making it harder to fairly reward real participants.

In addition to these challenges, broader market conditions also shifted, pushing us to reassess how we design a sustainable, community-aligned rewards system moving forward.

Crucially, the original rewards pool was set when the price of WILD was significantly higher. Distributing the full pool at today’s lower value would result in disproportionately inflated rewards, which could compromise the long-term sustainability of the Wilder economy. We take full responsibility for how The Odyssey unfolded and acknowledge the challenges that emerged throughout the campaign. However, to protect the integrity of the token and future initiatives, it’s essential that we scale back the rewards responsibly, while ensuring that only genuine participants are rewarded.

Given that there are many perspectives on how The Odyssey should be concluded, we feel it is important to hold a Wilder World DAO vote on the best way to definitively end the program.

📋 Final Participant List

🧹 We continuously monitored the platform and took decisive action to remove bots and bad actors from the system. Regular clearances were conducted throughout the program to protect the integrity of the Odyssey experience, without impacting genuine users. Measures were also implemented to detect and limit multi-account and sybil attack activity, including deactivating accounts that had not connected both X and Discord.

🎯 The Mission Pool (Shards)

🔍 A final review has now been conducted, during which all remaining Sybil accounts were removed. Additionally, referral accounts showing clear signs of manipulation or exploitative behaviour were excluded to ensure a fair and meaningful distribution.

✅ To ensure that rewards are fairly distributed to those who continuously participated in our missions, we’ve implemented a threshold requirement: only users who earned more than 8,000 Shards in the mission pool will be eligible for these rewards. This is a standard approach in airdrop campaigns to properly reward those who participated throughout the campaign.

📊 Given that participants could earn between 150–1,000 for social missions, and 500–1,500 Shards for the 200 events attendance that took place, we believe this threshold represents a fair cutoff, excluding accounts that made only minimal contributions, while ensuring that engaged community members are appropriately recognised.

🛡️ The Keepers Pool (wShards)

Unlike the Mission Pool, a threshold will not be applied for this pool, giving every Keeper their full wShards allocation.

As promised, stacked multipliers have been applied to eligible participants, as well as the 2.5x multiplier for Shards earned via the Mission Pool.

In addition, Wild Cards and Land points have been retroactively added for those who held these assets at the time of the snapshot taken, on March 10th, the day the Odyssey campaign was officially concluded.

• 🃏 Wild Cards: Eligible holders have been allocated a retroactive allocation of 175 wShards per day, per asset held, counted from the launch of the Odyssey until March 10th.
• 🌍 Land: Land holders were allocated 175 wShards per asset, calculated from the date the respective collection launched until the end of the Odyssey campaign.

These additions ensure all asset holders are fairly rewarded for their contributions and loyalty throughout the Odyssey experience.

📜 Final Wallet Lists: We’re currently reviewing the final numbers and will publish the final Shards and wShards lists on Wiki here.

📑 Proposal and Execution Details

🗣️ We’ve been listening to community feedback and have included three options for the community to vote on:

---

Option 1: Remove All Rewards from The Odyssey

• Rewards will not be distributed for the Odyssey Campaign.
• The full WILD allocation originally earmarked for this campaign will instead be redirected toward future reward programs that prioritise more sustainable, Sybil-resistant engagement systems.
• At the request of our community this option was added for those who believe it is better to close the campaign entirely and reallocate the WILD to initiatives that better serve the long-term health of the Wilder ecosystem.

---

Option 2: Reduce the Pool to 1.5 Million WILD

• We will distribute a total of 1.5 million WILD to eligible participants.
• The distribution will be split with 60% allocated to the Keepers Pool and 40% to the Mission Pool.
• WILD will be directly airdropped to participants on Z Chain or Ethereum, depending on L1 Gas fees.

---

Option 3: Reduce the Pool to 3 Million WILD

• We will distribute a total of 3 million WILD to eligible participants.
• The distribution will be split with 60% allocated to the Keepers Pool and 40% to the Mission Pool.
• WILD will be directly airdropped to participants on Z Chain or Ethereum, depending on L1 Gas fees.
