### User airdrop eligibility details

A points system was used to determine the number of tokens that airdrop recipients can claim. Points criteria was focused primarily on Arbitrum One; however, there was a small subset of criteria applied to activity on Arbitrum Nova. Points earned on Arbitrum Nova could either bring a user up to 4 points total, or give them one additional point if they had already scored 4 points or more on Arbitrum One. You earn maximum one point per qualifying action performed before the snapshot date. Point scores were capped at 15.

To prevent bots from taking advantage of the airdrop, a number of anti-Sybil rules were established:

- If an airdrop recipient's wallet transactions have all occurred within a 48-hour period, **one point is subtracted**.
- If an airdrop recipient's wallet balance is less than .005 ETH, **and** if the wallet hasn't interacted with more than one smart contract, **one point is subtracted**.

### Vesting and lockup details

While the user and DAO airdrops were available at the start of token distribution ([3/23/2023](https://etherscan.io/block/16890400)), all investor and team tokens are subject to 4 year lockups, with the first unlocks happening one year after the [token generation event (3/16/2023)](https://arbiscan.io/tx/0x9cdbb4672b549c26d97cac29f9cd73c1951656e0622ba4b9ed0abff2ee58698d) and then monthly unlocks for the remaining three years. The Arbitrum Foundation's allocation is subject to a lockup that began on 4/17/2023 and linearly unlocks over the course of four years; this is enforced by the [Arbitrum Foundation Vesting Budget Smart Contract Wallet](https://arbiscan.io/address/0x15533b77981cDa0F85c4F9a485237DF4285D6844).
