# Hipo Gang Season 1: Airdrop Distribution
### Overview Hipo Gang has an Airdrop Pool that will be distributed among players based on three key factors: 1. **League Level** – Higher leagues receive a larger share. 2. **Shells Spent** – Players who spend more shells get a higher multiplier. 3. **Earned Coins** – More earned in-game coins result in a higher share. ### Airdrop Pool Amount HPO holders will vote to decide the total amount of HPO allocated for the airdrop. ### Step 1: League-Based Allocation The allocated rewards will be distributed among different leagues as follows: * **20%** for all players in any league (0-8). * **10%** for all players in leagues 1-8. * **10%** for all players in leagues 2-8. * **10%** for all players in leagues 3-8. * **10%** for all players in leagues 4-8. * **10%** for all players in leagues 5-8. * **10%** for all players in leagues 6-8. * **10%** for all players in leagues 7-8. ### Step 2: Adjusting Final Coins with Shells Spent We use **Shells Spent** as a multiplier to adjust a player’s total earned coins. #### Calculation Example: * If a player has **1,000,000 earned coins** and spends **10 shells**. * Total shells spent by all players = **100 shells**. * Formula: **Final Coins = Earned Coins + (Earned Coins \* (Shells Spent / Total Shells))**. * **Final Coins = 1,000,000 + (1,000,000 \* (10/100)) = 1,100,000**. ### Step 3: Final Airdrop Distribution 1. **Players are sorted based on their final coins.** 2. **Players are categorized by their league.** 3. **Airdrop rewards are distributed proportionally based on league and final coins.** This ensures that players who are more active and engage with the game receive a fair share of the airdrop while rewarding high-performing players appropriately.

# Why is the Hipo Gang airdrop the last part of Season One? Airdropping Hipo Gang rewards later doesn’t mean it’s less valuable—in fact, it’s **quite the opposite**! Our team’s **primary focus is on Hipo Gang** because we see its huge potential. The main feature of Hipo Gang hasn’t launched yet, and we plan to **release it after the TGE**. This update will be a game-changer, allowing players to earn more coins and enabling us to design a smart and transparent $HPO airdrop specifically for Hipo Gang participants. We’re also exploring the idea of launching $GANG, a dedicated token for Hipo Gang, with a large portion reserved for players. # Why are the airdrops happening after the TGE? As an independent team without pre-sale investors, our goal is to build a **long-term sustainable project with our community**. Airdrops are a way to reward those who bring value to the project. By timing the airdrops after the TGE, we can ensure that $HPO is distributed transparently and strategically, maximizing its potential for growth. # Does an increase in $HPO’s price affect the community’s allocation? Not at all—in fact, we aim to increase it! We’ve committed 30% of $HPO to the community and are considering adding even more from marketing and treasury resources to reward contributors further. Our priority is to **release tokens responsibly** to support $HPO’s **price stability** while working on vesting plans to deliver $HPO and $GANG tokens earlier to the community when possible. # How Can I Join the Hipo Gang?
