Blast Gold: Distribution 3

Blast Gold: Distribution 3

15 million Gold will be distributed to Dapps in the third distribution. In this distribution a new category (RWA) and a new Dapp weight (Platinum) have been introduced.

Methodology

Dapps live on Mainnet were weighted based on the following formula: Category Weight x Blast-native Weight x Dapp Weight x Incentive Weight.

Dapps will receive a pro-rata portion of the 15 million Gold based on their final weights.

SocialFi 5

GambleFi 2
Misc 2
NFT Infra 1
RWA 1

Some categories were not allocated Gold this round, but still contained promising Dapps. We allocated an amount of either 2,000 or 10,000 Gold to those Dapps.

Blast-native Weight
Dapps were assigned weights of 1, 1.5, or 2 based on their exclusivity to Blast:

- 2 for Dapps exclusive to Blast
- 1.5 for Dapps primarily on Blast but available elsewhere
- 1 for Dapps available on multiple chains

Non-native Dapps that shift their focus to Blast can increase their Blast-native Weight over time. 

Dapp Weight
Dapps were assigned weights of 0 (Unranked), 1 (Bronze), 5 (Silver), 10 (Gold) or 15 (Platinum) based on:

- On-chain traction
- Use of Blast-native yield
- Use of Blast-native gas fee sharing
- Use of Blast Points API
- General execution (clear communication, lack of security incidents, etc)

Dapps that had significant security incidents or negative community incidents received a weight of 0 this round. However, Dapps that learn and improve over time have the chance to earn Gold in future rounds.

Some Dapps did not have enough traction to be weighted this round, but still seemed promising. We allocated an amount of either 2,000 or 10,000 Gold to those Dapps.

Incentive Weight
The Incentive Weight assesses Dapps' effectiveness in distributing gold to users, rated from 0 to 1. Common issues can be found here. As a community member, you can report any suspicious Dapp gold distributions and provide general feedback here.
