21 Hours of Horror! Sign Turning Fortune into Fortune, What Does It Mean
Metaphysics shows that@ Ethsign says, 'When encountering good fortune, it brings good fortune; when encountering misfortune, it brings bad fortune. Only by being cautious can one turn misfortune into good fortune.'.
Reviewing the PROMPT airdrop robbery incident, Sign was indeed able to turn bad luck into good, pacifying the community and fulfilling compensation in the shortest possible time, with a total of only 21 hours. It can be regarded as a template for crisis public relations and turning danger into safety.
Statement: I have no interest relationship with Sign. Just because they are awesome in this wave of operation, I take the initiative to record and hope that other projects will truly focus on the community when encountering similar emergencies.
Let's first review what exactly happened?
last night, PROMPT airdrops are open for application, with short and fast rules, which can be considered as a good return rate in recent times, especially for some Yappers who easily obtained thousands of pieces.
However, just as Yappers were happily receiving airdrops, the community revealed that MEV Frontrunner was stealing PROMPT redeemed on the KAITO event page and exchanging it for ETH.
For a while, stolen users flooded the social media platform Fud, targeting the token distribution platform @ tokentable under Sign, as well as the "grass platform team" and other comments.
After the incident, the Sign team, led by @ realyanxin, quickly responded and joined forces with Kaito to suspend token applications to avoid greater losses. At the same time, they reassured users through community, Twitter, and other channels, promising compensation, and the entire process took less than an hour.
At this time, the art style on social media has improved, and some bloggers have posted official responses, hoping that the authorities can handle this incident properly.
At 6:16 pm this afternoon, the 21st hour of the incident, the official restarted the airdrop application and compensation channel, not only compensating for the original number of tokens, but also according to the
The price of 0.22296 is used to compensate for the price difference. In fact, many people find it difficult to sell at this price if they sell it themselves.
According to official data, a total of 1781 users were affected this time, and the official ultimately paid an additional compensation of $155576.0. Undoubtedly, this money was advanced by the Sign team, and this responsibility deserves praise.
So, you will see various testimonials quickly flooding Twitter, with keywords such as "big picture" and "responsible" becoming the main theme.
After this crisis, Sign's reputation has reached N levels again. Here are some signals I have read. If there are any bugs, please feel free to correct them:
① The team has a structure
Many target lists value the community, but when faced with critical issues, they often prioritize self-protection and prioritize their own interests. Compared to Sign, they can only be considered as younger brothers.
In this incident, Sign did not shirk responsibility from beginning to end, and promised compensation in the first place to minimize the negative impact. This is not only their ability, but also their attitude and pattern.
② Community has a sense of ownership
Sharing two small details: one is that after the incident occurred, community members took the initiative to appease the stolen users and conveyed the team's attitude and commitment to everyone. The other is that after turning the tide today, community members took the initiative to like and interact with those testimonial tweets.
To be honest, I have been involved in several hundred projects, not just a few thousand. When the project team encounters difficulties, community members take the initiative to share the burden, which is negligible.
③ Sign airdrop available
To be honest, I participated in the signing activity in the early days and didn't pay much attention to Sign afterwards. Until the beginning of the year, many people were on Milk Sign, but there were quite a few things to do and I didn't calm down to study, which was quite a pity.
After this incident, the market's expectations for Sign have increased, and there will be more rumors about Sign in the future. Congratulations to the OGs who have already landed, it's done now.
Finally, criticize Tyler classmate @ tailai99 by name. We actually have a lot of personal relationships, but it wasn't until yesterday that I found out that this guy manages the Sign Genesis group, but he didn't even invite me. If I sign empty, he should bear full responsibility.
