However, it's not tied to quests... Layer 2 blockchain Optimism initiated its third wave of token distribution exclusively for OP delegators. To qualify for the rewards, participants needed to accumulate 18,000 points. The points were calculated by multiplying the number of delegated OP by the delegation days, which must exceed 7 days. If the delegate actively engaged in voting, a minimum of 9,000 points was required. There's no claiming process or forms to fill out! Tokens have been automatically sent straight to users' wallets. In total, over 19 million OP tokens have been distributed to 31,870 unique addresses.
