Project Positioning
KernelDAO is a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) focused on the blockchain re-staking field, optimizing the utilization efficiency of staked assets (such as ETH, BTC, BNB, etc.), enhancing network security and liquidity, and providing users with innovative yield mechanisms. Its core products include Kernel, Kelp, and Gain, covering shared security infrastructure, liquidity re-staking, and yield enhancement scenarios.

Core Products and Functions

  1. Kernel: The largest shared security infrastructure on the BNB chain, with a current total locked value (TVL) of $450 million, enhancing network security through distributed validator technology (DVT).

  2. Kelp: The second-largest liquidity re-staking protocol on Ethereum, allowing users to reallocate staked assets into liquidity pools for dual earnings.

  3. Gain: A yield enhancement tool that optimizes staking strategies and yield distribution to improve user capital returns.

Token Economic Model (KERNEL)

  • Total Supply: 1 billion tokens

  • Distribution Mechanism:

    • Community Rewards and Airdrops: 55% (20% for airdrops, 35% as future community rewards)

    • Ecosystem and Partners: 5% (supporting on-chain liquidity, market makers, etc.)

    • Team and Advisors: 20% (team tokens have a 30-month lock-up period, then released linearly over 24 months)

    • Strategic Reserve: 15% (for ecological incentives and long-term development)

    • Megadrop Rewards: 4% (40 million tokens for the Binance Megadrop event)

Technical Features and Advantages

  • Shared Security: Cross-chain verification technology expands security capabilities to a multi-chain ecosystem.

  • Slashing Insurance: Provides risk protection against validator slashing, lowering user participation thresholds.

  • Governance Participation: Token holders can participate in protocol parameter adjustments, ecological fund allocations, and other key decisions.

  • Liquidity Provision: Supports automated market maker (AMM) liquidity mining, earning additional rewards.

Ecological Cooperation and Market Performance

  • Strategic Cooperation: Collaborating with protocols such as Mira and YieldNest, committing 1-2% of token supply to KERNEL holders.

  • Funding and Fund: Completing $10 million in financing by 2024, establishing a $40 million ecological fund, supporting 45 new projects.

  • Launch Plan:

    • KERNEL token launch in March 2025.

    • Go live on Binance Megadrop on April 9, 2025, distributing 40 million rewards.

    • Spot trading opens on April 14, 2025 (KERNEL/USDT, KERNEL/BNB, etc.).

Core Issues Addressed

  • Enhancing Staking Efficiency: Maximizing the use of staked assets through re-staking technology, increasing user earnings.

  • Enhancing Network Security: Distributed validator technology reduces centralization risks.

  • Optimizing Yield Distribution: Mechanisms such as slashing insurance and liquidity mining ensure the stability of user earnings.

Focus: Token airdrop activities (the most direct acquisition method)

1. Community Airdrop Season (two rounds completed, third round TBD)

  • First Round Airdrop (ended):

    • Eligibility: Users who obtained 150+ Kernel Points or Kelp Grand Miles before December 31, 2024.

  • Third Round Airdrop: TBD, please pay attention to official announcements.

2. Binance Megadrop Airdrop (ongoing)

  • Participation Method:

    • Lock BNB: Lock BNB in Binance's Simple Earn; the locked amount and duration determine points (the longer and larger the lock-up, the higher the points).

    • Complete Web3 Tasks: Connect Binance Web3 wallet to designated projects to earn additional points and multipliers.

  • Reward Calculation: Final points = (Locked BNB points × Web3 task multiplier) + Web3 task points, tokens distributed according to points ratio.

II. Re-staking for Points (Long-term Participation Method)

  • Re-staked Assets: such as asBNB, BTC, BNB, etc., deposited in Kernel's re-staking pool.

    • Points Rules:

      • BNB: For every 1 BNB deposited, 2 Kernel Points can be earned per day.

      • BTC: For every 1 BTC deposited, 260 Kernel Points can be earned per day.

  • Usage: Points can be used to redeem airdrop qualifications, governance voting rights, or other future benefits.

III. Other Methods

  1. Community Contribution: Participate in KernelDAO governance, code contributions, proposal suggestions, etc., to earn community rewards (accounting for 35% of total supply).

  2. Private Placement Investment: Participation through private sale (ended, accounted for 20%), suitable for professional investors.

  3. Ecological Cooperation: Some partners (like Mira, YieldNest) commit to allocating 1-2% of token supply to KERNEL holders.

Key Tips

  • Airdrop Priority: Priority participation in Binance Megadrop (low threshold, transparent rewards), while accumulating Kernel Points for the third round of airdrops.
