What is Retrodrop?

A retrodrop is a method to distribute tokens to actively engaged participants in a project, these typically tend to be early-stage testing projects. It operates as a form of incentive mechanism to encourage participation. Specific criteria for receiving tokens when the retrodrop eventually occurs is typically known only to the project team.

In this approach, the active participants are rewarded in the initial distribution of coins, which is often at the most advantageous pricing. It's worth noting, however, that participation in retrodrops carries inherent risks. Yet, in the event of success, the potential profits can be substantial.

The Fund's Operational Process

• 1. Project Analysis: We research hundreds of projects to identify the most relevant and promising, with the highest potential return on investment.
• 2. Script Development and Testing: We develop a script for executing activities and thoroughly test it using our own funds.
• 3. Fund Placement on Wallets: Investor funds are placed on wallets solely for commission payments.
• 4. Script Launch: We activate the script to carry out activities, regularly monitor its performance, and optimise it while adding new tasks as necessary.
• 5. Wallet Activity Maintenance: We regularly repeat activities and maintain the activity of wallets participating in the airdrop.
• 6. Reporting Management: We monitor reports on completed activities and team performance in real-time.
• 7. Project News Monitoring: We carefully track project announcements regarding upcoming token distributions and airdrops.
• 8. Token Acquisition and Sale: We claim tokens onto wallets, sell them at advantageous rates, and distribute profits to investors as dividends in dollars.

The Activity Fund Perform

To receive airdrops, it is necessary not only to set up a certain number of wallets but also to regularly maintain their activity and complete platform tasks. All our wallets are verified – we allocate additional funds for Proof of Humanity and Galxe Passport, but this allows us to obtain a larger number of wallets that have passed the platform's rigorous selection process.

Part of the funds also goes towards consumables. Consumables are tools that ensure the operation of accounts for 1 year and the automation of activities using scripts.

Consumables include:

• Software; 12-month proxy (encrypts IP address); 
• 12-month Adspower (encrypts hardware); 
• Purchase of Twitter, Gmail, Discord accounts.

The Best Time to Invest

The best time to invest in the fund is now, in the spring of 2024. Our assessments indicate that entering these projects in the summer will not be as profitable. Additionally, the fund size is limited, so the opportunity to purchase shares may disappear in the coming weeks.

Why? This is due to the fact that any platform expecting a drop locks the accounts that have met a set of conditions before the drop occurs. No one knows exactly when this will happen, so the earlier you invest in the project, the greater the chances of earning a profit.
