Powering the EXPerience: EXP Points

Why EXP + what are they for?

Users that participate in the AR.IO Experience are rewarded with EXP - onchain tokens that represent potential AR.IO mainnet IO token airdrops. EXP is an AO token - now that AR.IO is moving to AO, this should make it easier for users to understand where they stand in the AR.IO ecosystem.

Why do EXP points matter?

EXP rewards loyal community members in the AR.IO ecosystem and serve as an incentive for new users and ecosystems that would benefit from permanent data. EXP gained during this period are potential proxies from IO tokens when our mainnet launches later this year.
