It has being a bearish market in the world of cryptocurrency with the giant of them all $BTC struggling in the 80k zone and other altcoins like $THETA and $FUN keep struggling.
Today I will be shedding light on a new innovative model which is set to reward project contributors for their efforts before token launch. Dive in with me
Let's be realistic, most crypto launches have not being favourable and fair to the public, it only favours the whales and early investors with deep pockets. But come to think of it, what if there's a system which encourages majority participation, contributions and fairness in rewarding cryptocurrency. That's where ILO (Initial Labour Offering) comes in play.
What's an ILO (Initial Labour Offering)
ILO is a launch system which rewards people (builders, creators and Social Miners) with token allocation based on the amount of skill and effort they contribute to the project’s whitelist.
Unlike traditional IDOs which investors have to stake thousands of dollars to reach the whitelist of a project, ILO model grant you access to earn your way in by just contributing to the project growth.
How Does It Work?
Let's take @DAO Labs and Autonomys collaboration which is a perfect example of this innovative model 
Recently, DAOLabs selected 240 social miners and KOLs to pledge work and submit deliverables for a month starting from March 24th to April 24th, 2025.
Throughout this period, selected miners assigned to various work pledge such as content creation, social media posts and visual creation are expected to perform this tasks before due date for evaluation.
This commitment and contribution made in the pace of one month grant them early access to earn Autonomys token model $AI3 based on quality, originality, and engagement.
This goes in support with what the CEO of #DAOLabs Malte Christensen said in his recent interview on DAOLabs Social miner of the hour. He quoted
"So Users will be able to compete through their work for a higher % of TGE and vesting unlock. In addition “You are responsible for your TGE unlock and subsequent vesting”
What are the benefits?
Enables Social Miners to earn money in new and innovative ways, such as monetizing their skills and expertise on decentralized platforms
Allows people from around the World to participate in work opportunities that were previously unavailable to them, regardless of location or qualifications.
Provides individuals with flexibility and control over their work, letting them choose the projects they work on and grow their own following by engaging with diverse communities
In conclusion, Initial Labour Offering (ILO) goes beyond getting early access to token launch, it's a new way to unite communities of creators, writers, translators and people who love to talk about Web3 together encouraging majority participation.
And with DAOLabs and Autonomys leading the charge, you’re not just watching innovation.
You’re a part of it.
