{% hint style="info" %}
Airdrop rates are calculated based on the following formula and sharply increases over time. The formula for the bonding curve is as follows.

* **Y** = Percentage
* **X** = Number of days
* **2** = Maximum Percentage
* **0.2** = Starting Percentage
* The exponential factor (-0.111) determines how quickly the curve increases
  {% endhint %}

$$
y = 2 - (2 - 0.2) \* e^{-0.111 \* (x - 1)}
$$
