Xian airdrop step by step tutorial

Xian is a Layer 1 blockchain whose smart contracts are written in native Python, with no transpiler needed. Its homepage aims it at Python developers, a group it puts at 13 million people, and says they can write contracts in a language they already use.

The network's native asset is XIAN, which pays gas and is used for governance. Developers are meant to earn from building: the project says they receive 68% of transaction fees on the contracts they deploy. The ecosystem the homepage describes includes a native wallet, a block explorer, automated governance and developer libraries such as xian-js and xian-py, plus a DEX where XIAN trades.

Contracts on Xian are plain Python files. The documentation's example contract marks its functions with @export and reaches the network's main token by importing currency. That example is a small vault in which each account can put in and take back out the main currency, with the contract remembering the balance for every account. Once written, a contract can be deployed to a testnet or mainnet with the Xian Wallet.

Fees are shared out rather than kept by the network: 111 million tokens were minted at genesis, 1% of gas is permanently burned, and contract developers receive 68% of fees.

The airdrop itself runs on a separate site. A developer connects a Xian wallet, connects GitHub and claims. That site gives no amount per developer, no eligibility rules beyond being a developer and no end date.

Separately, the homepage roadmap lists a Build anything bounty campaign as in progress, and its bounty section says no application is needed: build and get rewarded.
