Reducing barriers to entry
Free to claim - by making it free for all fans there was no exclusion and everyone could take part.
Web2 feel - although built on Web3 technology it was key for it to feel easy and normal for the majority of fans who were new to Web3.
Uncapped and Time Bound - allowed fans wherever they were in the world to collect over the race weekend without worrying about time zone or the drop ‘selling’ out.
