Conclusion
At the moment there is no exact information about the mechanism of points accrual from the project team.
Each connection to a new channel is made by OnChain, and the participant is automatically issued an NFT confirming their participation. If you create your own channel, it is converted into a separate smart contract on the blockchain. For each paid user in your channel, you get 90% of the contributed funds, which can be withdrawn to your wallet.
The project is at an early stage, so there is not much activity. The platform itself is similar to Discord, but on blockchain.
Participating in Towns activity provides a unique opportunity to become part of a decentralized community and potentially earn rewards in the future. By following this guide and staying active on the platform, you increase your chances of receiving a potential airdrop.
