Hello @AirLyft
The Unstoppable Community Grant period for AirLyft has come to an end, and itâs time to move on to the evaluation phase.
You can share a final report here, then the Astar community and ecosystem agents will ask you questions.
We will evaluate :
- If the the team was transparent, communicative and engaging throughout the 3-month period.
- If the team provided all request information, including answers to any questions, in a timely manner.
- The final outcome of the grant and if we would recommend the team for another grant if they applied again.
You can find out more about the evaluation phase and the possible follow-up to the program in the UCG deck .

Hello @Gaius_sama, core team & the awesome Astar community,
We would like to take a moment to express our gratitude for the overwhelming responses to our Unstoppable proposal in the begning, dedicated to building and fortifying our presence on the Astar Network. The journey thus far has been incredible, and we are eager to continue and strengthen our relationship with the community.
Following the guidance of @Gaius_sama, we would like to provide a brief overview of our accomplishments from the previous proposal:
-
We introduced a Shop functionality, streamlining the reward configuration process for projects by allowing them to set up a shop to lock both Web 2 and Web 3 rewards in a unified location & mentioned it here AirLyft Dapp Staking Proposal - #37 by AirLyft
-
Our next release focused on constant engagement and loyalty redemption on Astar EVM Networks. Participants engage in ongoing events, collect fuels, and use fuel burning mechanisms to redeem rewards from the Astar shop.
-
We designed and developed an architecture in the AirLyft quest section supporting data fetching from APIs as well & not just indexers. This versatile integration allows projects on the Astar Network to create deeper product-related tasks.
-
Responding to user feedback, we implemented a gasless mechanism on AirLyft, enhancing the user onboarding experience by allowing new users to claim rewards without the hindrance of gas fees.
-
With the major release of zkEVM, we are planning to integrate the Astar zkEVM version into AirLyft, making it a comprehensive solution to track ZK Chain activities.
-
We addressed various user experience feedback, including leaderboard data fetching, Twitter rate limit handling through the use of the paid Twitter Pro API Version, multiple pool claims under a single page, mobile view responsiveness, and integration with Talisman and Subwallet.
-
Taking a step ahead, we have also introduced a faucet functionality under the AirLyft quest section. This provides Astar and its ecosystem the flexibility to distribute small native tokens for participation and reduce bounce rates on the platform.
As we enter the upcoming quarter, we are excited to reapply for the Unstoppable Grant & build two major modules:
- ASTAR ZK EVM INTEGRATION
- AIRLYFT SEASONS
We are eager to participate once again in Unstoppable grants, aiming to catalyze our growth within the Astar Ecosystem, including targeting ZK users. We seek approval from the esteemed core team and ambassadors to present a detailed breakdown of the developments and deliveries planned for our next proposal. We look forward to contributing more to the community.

I find these new improvements implemented in your system totally incredible, without a doubt, I believe that the model you propose is very supportive of our community, and with these new advantages we are talking about possibly substantially increasing our audience.
Thanks for the update.

I support the new implementation in UCG. There isnât a tool with the same characteristics that provides as much support to Astar Network projects as AIrlyft does at the moment.
I hope that the innovations keep coming, and that the relationship between Airlyft and Astar has a long life, and may Airlyft continue to assist in developing both the community and projects within the ecosystem.

I like Airlyft and I hope we can boost it for the better times to join larger campaign projects as Astar native one!

Hi @AirLyft,
Thank you for your report and I am glad to see that you are applying to extend your UCG period.
Before we proceed to a new discussion period followed by a vote, we need you to create a new proposal similar to your original proposals with your new plans, milestones and goals for this new period.
Please post your proposal in this discussion before Wednesday, December 20. Until then, community members can always ask you further questions.

Quick recap of AirLyft
In light of the overwhelmingly positive response of AirLyftâs initial proposal, we are excited to enhance the value proposition further within the Astar Ecosystem. To provide an overview of our core vision, AirLyft stands as the foremost decentralized, loyalty, onboarding and engagement platformâa solution designed to facilitate the establishment, expansion, engagement of communities for diverse projects. Distinguished by its feature-rich architecture, AirLyft serves as a comprehensive platform, incentivizing a spectrum of on-chain and off-chain community actions. Notably, AirLyft introduces efficiency by automating processes such as validation, reward creation, and distribution, resulting in substantial time and resource savings in the realms of marketing and development.
Grant Extension Overview
With unwavering dedication to the Astar Network, our small team of six collaborates with Astar & Astarâs projects through AirLyft for growth initiatives. This underscores our commitment to enhancing the Astar ecosystemâs vitality and technological prowess.
We have understood the importance of a campaign-based leaderboard for the Astar community and as per our discussions with @0xRamz, we would like to introduce a couple of features in AirLyft that will allow different kinds of leaderboards to be built instead of just the all-time & weekly one.
Along with that, with the recent announcement of Astar zkEVM launch, we want to drive our product to now support the Astar ZK Testnet for running incentivization campaigns on the testnet itself.
Milestone 1: Campaign specific leaderboards
- We would be building the ability to view a leaderboard for each campaign, providing more transparency & excitement to the participants.
- With this feature, every campaign will individually have the ability to track participants & see whoâs leading.
- This would further increase the gamification and competitiveness of campaigns on AirLyft.
Milestone 2: Seasons
- Seasons will create the ability to club one or more campaigns into a single leaderboard and then calculate the rankings of the participants according to the campaigns in a particular season.
- Just like we had the âVoyage to Supernovaâ that combined 4 different campaigns, with the seasons feature in case we want to build a second independent campaign with itâs own leaderboard but within the same community, we will be able to combine those campaigns in a single seasons
- Instead of just an âAll timeâ and âWeeklyâ leaderboard, we will add the facility to view Season-specific leaderboards that will rank users based on multiple campaigns together.
Milestone 3: Ability to incentivize the Astar zkEVM Testnet
Using this feature, dApps on Astar zkEVM Testnet can run incentivization campaigns for actions on the testnet.
- Deploy Air Token Controller Smart Contract and associated UI on AirLyft for NFT creation on Astar zkEVM Testnet.
- Extend the claim feature to support Astar zkEVM Testnetâs digital assets and integrate winner selection mechanisms for on-chain NFT distribution based on various winner selection strategies.
- Introduce an option for on-chain soul-bound tokens corresponding to custom-created NFTs.
Milestone 4: Deploying AirPool, Multi-Reward system, & AirLyft Loyalty Shop on Astar zkEVM Testnet,
- Develop and deploy âAir Poolâ smart contracts for Astar zkEVM Testnet assets. With this, projects can create reward pools, lock their tokens, and utilise this reward pool to execute on-chain reward distribution of these assets directly on the Astar zkEVM Testnet.
- Extend support for the reusability of these reward pools. This would help projects lock Astar zkEVM Testnet assets once in a reward pool and reuse portions of the pool across multiple campaigns.
- Extend refund support of leftover rewards directly to the source wallet by signing a transaction on the Astar zkEVM Testnet. In case there are rewards in a pool which were not utilised for a campaign, projects would have the ability to withdraw these assets using the source wallet.
- Develop a feature for creating multiple reward distributions in the same event. For instance, projects can giveaway multiple tokens including NFTs in the same giveaway campaign.
- REST and Block Explorer API Integration support for the Astar zkEVM Testnet for projects to create further engaging campaigns.
- Provide support for the in-house indexing protocols supported by Astar zkEVM to create engaging on-chain actions.
- Provide Leaderboard and SHOP functionalities to redeem rewards in the form of merchandise, tokens, and many more using our fuel burn mechanisms over Astar zkEVM Testnet.
Dapp Staking Delegation Amount
We are requesting for a delegation of 2 Million ASTR to the AirLyft dapp staking pool. This will further our mission and aim to grow on the Astar Network and help each and every dapp available and incoming in the ecosystem.

I really see a significant improvement over your initial proposal, which excites me and tells me a lot about your desire to provide more value.
Reading the document carefully, I see that you cover several vital points and the loyalty model you show is quite solid.
Without further ado, I wish you luck team, I support the proposal!

First of all, I think we absolutely need such a thing. My primary suggestion would be to use Galxe-style places instead of Airflyt. This will attract more users to us.
However, I am in favour of this vote as I was satisfied with the last campaign and I think it would be a good mechanism to get the word out about Astar zkEVM and to reward the participants. Because for our Layer-2 there is no hint of an Airdrop yet and this is the biggest obstacle to attracting the masses here, but with airflyt, at least the users who participate in the campaign will be rewarded to some extent.
