# XR Airdrop for Node Holders

The Hero Node Decentralization Event initiates Phase 1 of XR One's broader decentralization strategy, centering around key partners and their communities, collectively known as the Hero Node Alliance. Holding a Hero Node is a notable contribution, providing access to governance, rewards, and games within the XR ecosystem. Early adopters in the Alliance are granted lower entry prices and additional rewards through an exclusive airdrop allocation. Each node license holder gains participation in the XR One governance and reward structure, including treasury access, grants, and revenue-sharing benefits. This role is transferable within the network and contributes to an individual's Proof of Contribution (POC) score, which recognizes active support for network decentralization.



**Airdrop pools:**&#x20;

* Aethir community: 1% of XR supply
* Carv community: 1% of XR supply
* Alliance communities: 1% of XR supply
* XR Hero Drop community: 1% of XR supply\


Alliance partners, including notable communities like Rivalz, KAP, ETH Lizards, and MON, are offered exclusive access to a 1% allocation of the XR token supply. Community members who hold a Hero Node NFT or appear on a whitelist provided by their community leaders will be eligible for these dedicated rewards. As more Hero Nodes are acquired across a community, participants can unlock additional token rewards up to the 1% allocation, fostering growth through compounded participation. With invite-only access to the Public Whitelist Hero Node sale, partners can seamlessly onboard their communities, with rewards distributed shortly after the token generation event (TGE) and with no vesting restrictions, aligning incentives with early support for XR One’s ecosystem.&#x20;

The airdrop allocation for a particular community is divided amongst all members of that community who own Hero Nodes by scale. So if a community member bought more nodes, they seek to gain a greater share of this total 1% airdrop allocated to the community.&#x20;
