Detailed explanation of the three-step PUA for community airdrops in the Mantra (token OM) project, which has been pulled 500 times Disclaimer: Please take antihypertensive medication before reading this article. The Mantra team is not responsible for any cases of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases caused by the user's breath; For any of your emotional reactions, the Mantra team adheres to the three no's principle of not being proactive, not refusing, and not being responsible. Please be aware!!! Step 1: Dream making pancakes MANTRA was very high-profile in its early days, claiming to distribute $50 million OM tokens during the GenDrop airdrop campaign and promising to unlock 20% of the tokens directly when online on the main network, which would be distributed within a month. Attention to keywords: 50 million tokens, unlocking 20% directly upon launch, to be delivered within one month. Does the resolute appearance make one's heart flutter? First, I'll give you a shot of high-intensity dopamine and ask if you're feeling good. Who wouldn't be tempted by it? Who doesn't feel confused when they smell it? The project team is just missing one sentence: Bao, come and play, I guarantee your satisfaction! Step 2: Delay to meet control requirements When you are just immersed in sweet fantasies, the project team immediately launches a killing move: Rule modification 1.0: Change from "20% immediate unlock" to "0.3% daily unlock after 1 month cliff period". Do you understand? Immediate means starting the countdown for one month immediately; The cliff period means: it is recommended that leeks jump off the cliff together after one month. Gao, this is really his mother tall! Rule modification 2.0: Further upgraded to "10% application by March 2025, with attribution period extended until 2027". That means it will take you a full 1000 days to collect everything. If you taste it all at once, 1000 days is almost equivalent to the construction time of the project party's yacht entertainment club and sea view villa in Maldives. Do you understand? Use your delayed gratification to meet the immediate gratification of the project party. In addition, the MANTRA team's rule changes include but are not limited to: adjusting token economics, adjusting roadmaps, adjusting unlocking schedules, adjusting allocation ratios, and emphasizing the principle that "the faster the rule changes, the more handsome the yacht will be Step 3: Second Harvest+Emotional Cold Violence After experiencing the series of deception and manipulation mentioned above, you may have become extremely angry. But the Mantra team's operation is not over yet, they have played PUA to the extreme. Don't you want fairness? Then initiate a vote. If you want to be eligible to vote, it's not too much for you to pledge, and by the way, it's not too much for me to harvest gas. Voting is based on the token ratio, which is fair. Just a reminder, I have an 80% voting ratio. What is this, this is the essence of PUA economics. First, it makes you angry, then shifts your conflict through seemingly fair voting, and finally completes a second harvest. The cruelest part is that MANTRA not only cuts you, but also makes you bring your own sickle. MANTRA redefined fairness and democracy, and General Kim couldn't help but shed tears upon seeing it, which is even more impressive than North Korea's system. Translate the true voice of the MANTRA project team as follows: Community joint decision-making=I make decisions for you Building a Beautiful Ecology Together=Building My Maldives Villa Together The voice of the community is important=your gas fee is important So the community became angry, and when doubts flooded the project team, the final blow to PUA's crackdown came - resolute and thorough cold violence! The project team attributed everything to the "Sybil attack" and claimed that it was a "malicious user" who caused the plan to be blocked, but never disclosed the specific data or identification standards of the Sybil wallet. All of the above is a template style blame throwing process: community questioning - initiating cold handling (Sybil attack) - intensifying and transferring anger (caused by malicious users) - direct witch. The current situation of community users on Mantra's DC channel can be described as tragic, with only individual investors who have been treated unfairly. Despite their hard work in participating in the event, they have not even seen the shadow of airdrops. Faced with the crackdown from retail investors, Mantra's official chatbot has only one cold and automated chatbot repeatedly responding: the Sybil recognition process has been completed, the updated checker is now online for review, and this process is final with no appeal process. Please do not open a ticket for this. What's even more outrageous is that early test website users, loyal supporters who pledged for two years, and active participants in Galxe activities were all excluded from the airdrop list. "Previously, they were eligible for the search, but later disappeared" - this has almost become a collective accusation from the community. What's worse, those users who bridged tokens and spent real money according to the project requirements were all turned into witches in the end! How to put it, perhaps these users have bad feng shui in their wallets, accidentally breathing Sybil's air one day, otherwise it really cannot be explained by science. To be honest, this is even more inhumane than buying lottery tickets. At least you won't make it, and there's one more thing: thank you for participating; But Mantra is too lazy to even give "thank you" and just tells you: it's gone, go away! After these three processes, I think everyone should understand that this is a PUA with a purity of up to 99.9%. Assuming that this PUA not only deceives emotions but also money, is it considered fraud?
