Mesi plans to run campaigns offering free $MESI tokens to new accounts, referred to as the "Welcome Bonus." These bonuses are designed to help users quickly get started and explore the Mesi ecosystem before purchasing their first $MESI tokens.
The tokens from the Welcome Bonus are intended to:
Promote app usage.
Provide token-based discounts for fans.
Help creators upgrade their accounts more easily.'
They are off-chain tokens, 'acting as' MESI tokens, yet they are separated from them at a backend level, so they could be traceable.
Welcome Bonus tokens can only be used within the app for:
Payments to creators.
Accessing premium features.
Other payments
To be eligible to receive payments with Welcome Bonus tokens
The creator must be at least Tier 5.
The creator’s account should demonstrate:
Consistent content uploads.
Active interaction with fans.
High engagement within the app.
Mesi keeps the details and exact list of the above criteria undisclosed and reserves the right to adjust them at their discretion.
Eligible creators can withdraw Welcome Bonus tokens as standard $MESI tokens
Withdrawals are permitted 365 days after the Welcome Bonus tokens first enter circulation (i.e., are received by an eligible user).
To ensure the supply does not exceed the maximum limit, MESI tokens used to cover the withdrawal of Welcome Bonus tokens will be burned from Mesi reserves.
