Odaily News In response to community users questions about the logic and ideas behind proof of donation, LayerZero CEO Bryan Pellegrino said that LayerZero had no airdrop plans before, never mentioned it, never talked about it, and then one day in 2023, after several large airdrops, people suddenly started speculating wildly. The pressure after that became super crazy, and the expectations became huge. Every airdrop post said that LayerZero would be the largest airdrop ever, and everyone had these crazy expectations. The purpose of proof of donation is to make the community stop and think for 2 seconds. In reality, each donation is only a few cents, and these donations are donated to an amazing group that really needs support, and everyone benefits greatly from it. Stop and think, and commit to donating to an amazing cause.
