Holders of Berachain ecosystem NFTs received 0.25% of the amount, while the Berachain Foundation allocated 6.9% BERA to Bong Bears NFT holders. Strategic partners have been given 0.4% BERA, while BNB holders are to receive 2% BERA.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the airdrop<a href=\"https:\/\/docs.berachain.com\/learn\/pol\/tokens\/tokenomics\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\"> makes up<\/a> 15.75% of Berachain\u2019s 500 million total supply. Although 107.48 million tokens are currently in circulation, the remaining will be released according to a linear vesting schedule over the next three years.<\/p>\n<h2>Mixed Reaction From Community<\/h2>\n<p>Berachain community members on X are complaining that the airdrop allocations are not fair. Some insist it is not right for testnet users, who have engaged with the network for years, to receive way fewer tokens than Bong Bears NFT holders. Some users <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/benmac_off\/status\/1887185692570062933\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">revealed<\/a> that they received substantial allocations, while others <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/0xkemosabe\/status\/1887224450057142588\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">said<\/a> they got none despite consistently interacting with the protocol over time.<\/p>\n<p>Although pseudonymous Berachain co-founder Smokey the Bera <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SmokeyTheBera\/status\/1887184390398099724\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">explained<\/a> that it is nearly impossible to target people perfectly during airdrops, community members are still voicing their grievances in the comment section. The pseudonymous crypto trader Jarzombek <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/jarzoombek\/status\/1887186452783493397\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">asserted<\/a> that Smokey and the Berachain team members \u201crugged the most loyal community\u201d by allocating 0.25% to holders of ecosystem NFTs.<\/p>\n<p>Amid this chaos, the price of BERA has corrected a bit after rallying 1,346% to $14.46 after launch. Data from CoinMarketCap <a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/currencies\/berachain\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">shows<\/a> the token changing hands at $7.36 at the time of writing.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Berachain ecosystem has three main tokens: BERA, BGT, and HONEY. BERA is the native gas and staking token of the network, BGT is for governance and economic incentives, while HONEY is the chain\u2019s native stablecoin.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/berachain-community-members-show-mix-reactions-following-bera-airdrop\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Berachain Community Members Show Mix Reactions Following BERA Airdrop<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Berachain team has finally released BERA airdrops to community members following the successful launch of the proof-of-liquidity layer-1 network.
