### 🌟 I. Highlights and Innovations
1. **Multi-layered reward mechanism, covering a wide range of users**
- **Low threshold for participation**: Users only need to trade ≥ $8 (spot or instant swap) to obtain a 'GR-8 boarding pass,' unlocking eligibility for subsequent activities.
- **Diverse forms of rewards**: Including:
- **Meteor Shower Lottery**: Opens every 8 hours, randomly distributing token coupons, BNB, etc., with a single round reward pool of $50,000 and a total pool of about $2 million.
- **Task System**: Complete tasks such as tutorial learning, trading, and sharing to collect 'meteorites,' with 28 needed to share in an $888,000 BNB coupon pool.
- **Constellation Collection**: Users who collect 8 specific constellation symbols (e.g., ranks 88, 888, etc.) can receive additional BNB rewards.
2. **Social fission and community interaction**
- Encourage users to create videos/photos featuring the number '8' or Binance elements and share them on social media for a chance to win limited edition merchandise.
- Inviting friends to participate can accelerate constellation symbol collection, enhancing user-driven sharing.
3. **Ecosystem project linkage, expanding influence**
- Nine project parties, including Neo, Celo, and Baby Doge Coin, jointly launched a warm-up event, providing a $400,000 independent reward pool. Users can obtain project tokens (e.g., lock 38 NEO to get 0.88 NEO) through tasks like lock-up and subscription.
