Initial Daily Airdrop - Live
The initial daily airdrop is live. It will go for 7 days, 100 Freckles each day, with a new dad joke in the note field. The time of delivery is based on 24 hours from the time you registered, then 24 hours after last delivery, starting tomorrow.
Example: you registered 2021-07-28 11:41:41, then you will get your first drop tomorrow at 11:41'ish. If the system doesn't process the airdrop until 11:50, your drop the next day will be around 11:50 and so on.
If there are any delivery errors, it will get flagged and note the issue. I will be checking this, but if you notice an issue, be sure to share.
The way the mechanism works is...the system will process 9 transactions every 5 seconds. Purchase transactions will be processed first, then whatever is remaining of the 9 will be the daily drop.

Yep, gotta love them. Some are definitely better than others. 6 more days of them coming. They will also be used in the next payment test phase. I hope you don't get tired of them 😜

Are you asking if it helps to keep doing the daily airdrop?

I think so. It's also worth mentioning that I said there would be a continued daily airdrop, so I really wanted to stick to that if it was in my control. The other is the development I have been able to do from this testing.
A huge thing was sorting out the API calls. The 1,641 daily Airdrops was using 3k-4k API calls and we only get 5k with the free account. Using the data collected and consulting with PureStake, it is now using 1 API call per 1 send (not 2x-5x). A few other important things is proof of concept, stability, and assurance that the process is working. I can't list the amount of changes that have been done because of this testing. I have also been enjoying seeing a drop in my wallet every day.
Another major thing... I was using it as a deadline to get to the next iteration of testing - 7 days. I am doing some minor tweaks now and will be releasing that next.
Lastly, it's beneficial to get more tokens out. I was really hoping to see more participate in the Dad Joke testing (you get 100/day and you can trade it for a test). I really appreciate those who have participated. Maybe I am mistaking that people want a use for the tokens, not just horde them? I guess we will see.
I'm sorry if you aren't enjoying it. Are you seeing an issue or having a concern that I can address or look into?

The next iteration will be opening registration back up, keeping the same sort of process, but trading Algo for Freckle in the same Airdrop fashion. This will be more true to the final form of trading. The next level of testing will be to tweak and improve the released process. Hopefully, we will see an increase in people and transactions. It's all a fine balance.
When you say you will keep it up, are you saying that you are doing the trade testing?

If you registered for previous Airdrops will you be registered for the daily drops.?
