🔍 What is OVER used for in the Open Beta Testnet?

If you have enough points, you can receive OVER(for testing) after verifying your email on OverNode.

🔍 Why is OVER distributed to the limited number of users on a first-come, first-served basis?
Over Protocol employs a consensus algorithm that enables numerous individuals to participate in the blockchain network. However, to ensure the smooth operation of this Open Beta Testnet and manage the queue for validators seeking eligibility, we plan to distribute OVER(for testing) based on specific criteria. These criteria are designed for users who have passionately and consistently engaged in the Over Protocol’s ecosystem.
🔍 Do I need to unstake points from OverWallet to receive OVER?
To receive OVER(for testing), the total amount of required points includes the staked points. Therefore, users with sufficient points in the OverWallet don't need to unstake the points to receive OVER(for testing).
🔍 I can't engage in the OverNode OBT. Can I still get an airdrop by participating in OverWallet?
Over Community Access Program (OCAP) Quest 1 is taking place on OverWallet. Participants in OverWallet can also get an airdrop.
🔍 What can I do on OverNode if I don't have OVER?
Even without OVER(for testing), you can complete the missions on OverNode and receive OVER(for testing) from other users. Look for a member of the OverNode community who is willing to share OVER(for testing) with you.
