220 participator. I don't understand, however. If the airdrop participant don't receive any mining rewards for their cluster award, then why do they need them? I am so confused here. Had to pay the gas fee twice because the first transaction returned an error....don't know why....but I thinks it's because I accidentally sent some eth the first time....What are the airdrop cluster used for if they are not real participants?
I already ask the same question in the ANN, here's what the Dev said:
Asking about the purpose of mined vs bought tokens is like with any other token:
You can buy ETH on exchanges, but that doesn't make you mine it for life and your amount is limited strictly to what you bought.
Or, you can buy GPU's instead and mine for longer period of time, that will generate more tokens overtime.
It's the same principle. Plus, we keep on developing more projects/concepts and CLRT will always be accepted on those projects as well.

also this quote is quite interessting:
Quote
Heads up that with the new contract, users who purchased CLRT on exchanges will also participate in the mining cycles, but at different rates to encourage buying from the contract and maintaining the reward level.
We'll also add support for other currencies for users who don't have Ethereum.

hat means with the new contract these airdrop coins also participate on mining?
But, the analogy between ether and GPUs above doesn't make sense because they are two different things. In our example, we have CLRT that participate in the minting and CLRT that don't participate ---> not fungible at all, right? How are we supposed to know which CLRT we are receiving at any given time? If I sell my CLRT to myself, will they then become equitable with the other CLRT, or if I trade them on an exchange or buy from an exchange....how do we know which CLRT we're getting? It's easy to tell the difference between an "ether" and a "GPU" when we purchase them.....how do we tell the difference between a "minting CLRT" and a "non-minting CLRT" when we purchase them?
I guess more light needs to be shed on this issue. I feel a better way would be to have a maturity period for the CLRT from exchange, similar to POS.. some coins require as much as 15 days for maturity to stake, and others as little as 6 hours. This will help avoid confusion of which CLRT does what. Because If I buy from the contract, and move it to an exchange and back to my wallet, it would be deemed as a bought CLRT. It's all too confusing. I hope Dev can look into 'prolonging time to automine by CLRT (ex, start mining after 100 segments, etc) from exchange as compared to CLRT bought directly from contract.
