I have just read this article about Ambassador Program. I really surprised how seriously Interlay team refer to their community. It's interesting to see how this program will be running, and what rewards will be given there.

Community Update:
What’s happening with the Ambassador Program?
"With so many talented people in the Program, it’s only fair we provide all of you an opportunity to show your skills, knowledge and creativity. To do so, we focus on three thematic work areas, that we believe are of great importance for the community at this very moment.
The three work areas are:
Education
Usability & Tech
Engagement & Growth"

As for KINT tokens. Team said that they would run Kintsugi parachain before Christmas. I think distribution of KINT will be started around the same time. So we should wait a little more.

Interlay Parachain пpиxoдит в Polkadot

"The Interlay Network parachain will bid for a Polkadot parachain slot in batch 2 of the upcoming auctions (slot 6–11), starting 23 December 2021. If Interlay wins a parachain slot, it will go live on 11 March 2022

(see Polkadot roadmap here).

Why don’t you join the 1st batch?
…you may ask. The answer is simple: there is no reason to rush!

We have just won a Kusama slot for Kintsugi. Before we do anything on Polkadot, Kintsugi will go live with all features.
Interlay’s interBTC lives from XCM. As long as other parachains and XCM is not 100% ready, interBTC cannot unfold it’s full potential.
Kusama is still not 100% stable. Before Polkadot will enable all features, incl. XCM, this will happen on Kusama — where we will be testing with Kintsugi and kBTC."

The Future of Interoperability
https://medium.com/interlay/the-future-of-bridging-assets-837998115f6b
"Existing BTC (and most other) bridge are all centralized and custodial. Just like USDT / USDC.
$17 billion worth of BTC is at risk — and could crash the entire DeFi market.
interBTC revolutionizes how BTC is used in DeFi — trustless and decentralized. It’s like DAI, but better (you can redeem for physical BTC!).
interBTC is just the start. More assets on more chains. Cross-chain DEX and OG NFTs. Smart contracts and moonshot projects.
1st moonshot project WIP: non-custodial BTC DeFi. Keep BTC in your wallet, earn yield with 1 click.

Our flagship product is interBTC — Bitcoin on any blockchain. A 1:1 Bitcoin-backed asset, fully collateralized, interoperable, and censorship-resistant, realizing the true free nature of BTC and decentralized finance. Kintsugi is our canary network on Kusama — the innovation hub of the Interlay network.

Kintsugi Launch Roadmap: The Path to Bitcoin on Kusama
https://medium.com/interlay/kintsugi-launch-roadmap-the-path-to-bitcoin-on-kusama-c2c6aa528f7

"Finally, we have been working on two features that will make Kintsugi even more useful to Kusama:
The first true Bitcoin decentralized exchange, allowing anyone to swap BTC against KSM, kBTC, kUSD and any other asset on Kusama. This DEX will also support Bitcoin’s OG NFTs, such as PepeCash (Counterparty coloured coins).
EVM-Support which will allow anyone to write smart contracts on top of Kintsugi, while getting access to Bitcoin-specific functions (pre-compiled contracts)."

"Kintsugi is interBTC’s canary network, developed by Interlay under the supervision of Kintsugi Labs, a non-profit oriented organization responsible for Kintsugi’s launch and the support of the decentralized network and ecosystem.
Kintsugi’s kBTC brings radically open Bitcoin to Kusama to kickstart liquidity for parachains like Karura, Shiden and Moonriver. kBTC is a 1:1 Bitcoin-backed asset on Kusama, maintained by a decentralized network of collateralized Vaults. Users must only ever trust that Bitcoin and the DeFi platform they use are secure."

"5/5 Why "Kintsugi"?

Inspired by the ancient Japanese tradition of embracing the flawed and imperfect, Kintsugi accepts the nascent DeFi ecosystem on Kusama as chaotic while constantly being perfected by golden streaks of its community."
